Luke Hajdukiewicz, Chief Growth Officer at Blueprint Finance, joins The Michael Peres Podcast to discuss his path from environmental engineering and underwriting solar projects to Silicon Valley Bank and institutional digital-asset infrastructure. Luke explains how regulated finance and on-chain systems are converging, including what stablecoins change in cross-border payments, why transparency matters when addressing crypto’s environmental footprint, and why many institutions still prioritize clear responsibility when incidents occur. He also outlines how restaking, cross-chain yield, and qualified custody may shape the next phase of institutional blockchain adoption, drawing on work spanning BitGo, Eigen Labs, and protocol integrations.
