Miller highlighted Bermuda's role as one of the first jurisdictions to establish a regulatory framework for digital assets in 2018, explaining that the framework was initially developed to support and protect the island's reinsurance industry before expanding to areas such as derivatives and stablecoins. He described how companies were increasingly combining digital asset and insurance activities, reflecting broader convergence between the two sectors.
