These channels can include online platforms, physical stores, financial advisors, or direct-to-consumer models. In the context of digital assets, this refers to the various avenues that enable everyday individuals to acquire, trade, or manage cryptocurrencies and other digital financial products. The accessibility and ease of use of these channels are critical for broadening participation in the digital asset market. They connect issuers with end-users.
