Kevin Simback on the 3 factors that will determine the winner in institutional blockchain adoption: "Whether you love it or hate it as a crypto native, institutional adoption is here to stay. There's tens of thousands of financial institutions, and the majority just won't build their own chain" Kevin believes it will come down to three things: - Credible neutrality: Regional banks won't use competitors' chains - Performance at scale: Institutions need real settlement speed - Built-in compliance: Legacy finance won't come onchain without it And uses these three factors to make the case for Keeta winning institutional adoption: "They did a stress test with Google, audited by ChainSpec. 11 million transactions per second, 400 millisecond settlement time. We're talking the most performant blockchain that's ever been created." "And for compliance, they built that into the core from the start, institutions are just not comfortable bringing use cases onchain without the right compliance attributes" He continues: "These are some pretty significant assets, and Keeta's designed to be completely interoperable across all blockchains and offchain payment networks. The vision is to be the unifying settlement layer across crypto and legacy finance. There just really are not many projects that are so perfectly positioned for this"

Anyone who tells you that blockchains “eliminate the need for Swift” has no idea what they’re talking about Swift is not a payment network, it’s an interbank messaging network Their SwiftNet private key infrastructure and banking messaging standards like ISO20022 are used by 11,000+ banks globally to facilitate the communication of payment instructions between banks Imagine taking 11,000 banks, who already have private keys and standardized formats for messaging, and connecting them to blockchains in a way they can re-use all of this existing infrastructure and messaging standards That’s exactly what Swift and Chainlink have been working on for years Last year, Swift published a report on how Chainlink CCIP can successfully connect Swift-member banks to any public/private blockchain using their existing infrastructure and messaging standards (12+ of the largest global financial institutions and FMIs were involved): Just yesterday, Swift published an article on how they’re moving forward on real-world solutions that will enable Swift members banks to access/transact with tokenized assets / currencies on the Swift network They note this builds upon their prior work, which they’re now advancing to the next stage (they explicitly link to their work with Chainlink): Swift isn’t going away, and their involvement in the blockchain ecosystem will massively accelerate the adoption of tokenized assets / currencies / stablecoins within the financial system Attached clip of Sergey Nazarov explaining this at Consensus 2024 on stage with Swift’s Jack Pouderoyen (Digital Assets & Currencies at Swift) I wonder how much longer this misconception about blockchain “killing” Swift will continue to persist in our industry I recommend paying attention to Sibos 2024

It's happening. Senator Tillis finally gave the green light for Clarity Act and we're about to have a FED chair who wants to fundamentally change how the Fed measures inflation and is openly talking about lowering short-term rates while still shrinking the balance sheet. The biggest shock to crypto holders this cycle might be when they learn you don't need QE to have a bull market. Just ask the 1990's. Productivity. Boom.

It’s really complicated to build a data center. When you think about what Bitzero has done, they've gone through it already. They started from scratch in Norway with nothing and built all the infrastructure. So it's much easier for them to say, "Hey, what do you need and how much land do you want?" And just add to the existing infrastructure there, and then they've got the Finland power contracts, which are even as interesting, to say the least. So my investment thesis for crypto and AI has completely changed. We started our conversation with one word, power. That's it. The real value of Bitzero, power.

Money has always evolved alongside technology. From paper, to electronic ledgers, to digital payment rails, each shift changed how markets operate rather than whether they operate. The IMF's perspective highlights that tokenization is part of this same progression. It brings faster settlement, broader access, and new ways for assets to be represented digitally. But the real transformation happens after assets move onchain. Once tokenized, assets don’t just need to exist. They need to function inside markets. That means settling reliably, interacting with other financial primitives, and doing so in ways that align with institutional requirements around compliance and control. Plume is built around that layer: enabling tokenized RWAs to move, compose, and participate in onchain markets while preserving the standards institutions rely on today.

Why is Bitwise's research team, both on-chain and institutional, bullish on Avalanche? It comes down to structure. 🎙️ Ryan Rasmussen, Head of Research: "Avalanche has a very unique structure as opposed to other L1s, and we think that has positioned Avalanche very well for being one of the leading platforms for moving into the next stage of crypto adoption." 🎙️ Kam Benbrik, Research for Onchain Solutions: "They're more focused on the institutional side of the business, and we're seeing very interesting traction in the Avalanche ecosystem." The example? Progmat, one of Japan's largest tokenization platforms, backed by major Japanese banks, chose to build their own Avalanche L1. Why? → Near-instant finality (transactions settle in under 2 seconds) → Permissioned validator sets (institutions know exactly who's securing the network) → EVM compatibility → Native cross-chain messaging into the broader Avalanche ecosystem Avalanche isn't competing on TPS marketing. It's quietly becoming the infrastructure institutions actually want. 🎥 Full clip from the stream below.

⏳ NEW: Archax | Regulated Infrastructure for Tokenized Capital Markets Graham Rodford (Graham) explains why tokenization is not about creating new assets, but making existing ones more useful. Onchain assets are not speculative by default. They are the same assets, with added utility. Transferability. Programmability. 24/7 settlement. Founded in 2018 as the UK’s first regulated digital asset securities platform, Archax Archax Crypto focused on market structure long before institutions were ready. Now the shift is underway. Key themes from the conversation: • The future of regulated digital money • Shift from pilots to live institutional deployment • Stablecoins vs tokenized deposits • Institutions aligning on multichain infrastructure • Why networks like Hedera & Canton Network are gaining traction in enterprise adoption Digital cash & tokenized RWAs interacting on the same ledger(s) will change everything... Archax actively engages with multiple networks including Hedera, Canton, XRP Ledger, Algorand, XDC, Solana and many others as regulated finance moves onchain. “We’re moving from ‘will this happen?’ to ‘everyone is doing this.’” Full interview:

Buying infrastructure software is like buying a wedding cake. "When you buy a wedding cake, you're looking for a finished cake. But a lot of infrastructure providers only give you the ingredients. There's different types of flour. Different types of salt. There's vanilla extract, and different types of icing. You also need a baker. And the quality of whatever you bake can vary greatly depending on how good that baker and those ingredients are. The wedding cake might even topple over because you don't have the right team. At Artie we assume our customers just want a wedding cake. They want faster data to pump into a risk system. Or faster data so their AI agents can get the context they need. No one cares about a wedding cake's ingredients. They just want a beautiful cake that's ready to eat."

Great Q by Istvan: How do you change a system? Through a vibeshift - and it's easy to do: - You change your mindset to "i can change this" - You change things - You get others to do the same People keep telling me i am just naively optimistic and ignore issues. I am not. I am super critical about a lot of issues in Europe. The vector is bad. I just don't see the point of repeating the same 50 stats on twitter for easy likes, negativity farming, or punching down. How miserable can people be to make that their daily task? There are clear things that can be done that have 10x outcomes for Europe if they work out. Worth doing. Many of them don't even need politicans. My pov: - We need more deterministic thinking about the future. - We need more builders, fewer whiners, bullies, and farmers Shit ain't easy, never was, welcome to the party. Here is me talking at slush about the whole issue.

Every major bank, financial institution, and government is saying the same thing: tokenization is the future of finance. Literally every single financial asset is going to be tokenized and brought on-chain, and it's now imminent. As soon as Gensler is out, expect TradFi to quickly start embracing tokenization, and that's when I expect the RWA narrative to go parabolic. The tokenization project that I'm most bullish on is $CHEX (aka Chintai), and my expectation is that it does at least a 10x from here and establishes itself as the top RWA L1 within the next couple of months. Every financial institution is going to have their own tokenization platform, similar to how they all have their own app or website. The problem is that building their own tokenization platform is resource intensive - it takes years to build and will cost millions of dollars. This is where Chintai’s white-label solution becomes essential. Instead of building a tokenization platform from the ground up (which would take years and cost millions of dollars), big players like Blackrock or Goldman Sachs could roll out their own self-branded tokenization platform on top of Chintai’s infrastructure. This white label approach lets financial institutions like Goldman Sachs go to market faster with a better quality product, while staying ahead in the race to tokenize RWA's —without having to bear the massive costs of building and maintaining the technology. Keep in mind that every single entity that white-labels this technology would be deploying their tokenization platform on top of the same shared Layer-1 blockchain, driving network effects. Just think about this for a second...dozens of institutional clients, each launching their own tokenization platform on the same shared L1. For this reason, we could realistically see the Chintai L1 have $10B+ of TVL in 2025, giving it the second highest TVL of any blockchain, behind Ethereum. For a lot of projects, TVL is a vanity metric, but for CHEX there's actually a direct connection between the tokens utility and the amount of RWA's tokenized and brought on-chain. It's also important to keep in mind that in order to use the white label tech, these financial institutions literally have to buy CHEX. One way I try to explain the CHEX token is that you can look at it as an RWA ETF that pays you dividends. TLDR: Chintai is an RWA L1 for financial institutions to deploy their own tokenization platform via white-labelling, and it will have billions in TVL. Financial institutions will hold $CHEX on their balance sheet thanks to its institutional-grade tokenomics. Target price: $4-$10 Current price: $0.42

$LINK x Larry Fink - The Game Changer Incoming! Imagine this: Chainlink ($LINK), already a titan in the crypto oracle space, teaming up with Larry Fink, the mastermind behind BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager. What does this mean? $LINK is not just aiming for the top; it's set to redefine it. Larry Fink's vision for the financial landscape involves tokenizing everything. Think stocks, bonds, real estate – all on the blockchain. Real World Assets (RWA) are the next big wave. With BlackRock's muscle, these assets could soon flood the blockchain, and guess who's perfectly positioned to handle this deluge? Chainlink. Why? Because Chainlink provides the infrastructure for smart contracts to interact with real-world data. With RWAs becoming tokenized, LINK's utility skyrockets. Top 10 Coin? Absolutely. With BlackRock's entry into tokenized funds and the RWA trend, LINK isn't just competing; it's leading the charge. Absorbing Liquidity? The tokenization of RWAs will need reliable, secure oracles. Chainlink's network is tailor-made for this, potentially making $LINK the central hub for liquidity in this new tokenized economy. This isn't just speculation. It's the logical evolution of blockchain meeting traditional finance, with Chainlink at the forefront. Get ready, because when $LINK and Larry Fink combine forces, the crypto landscape might just see its next big leap. #RWA

In a post-Clarity Act world, Ripple becomes a monetary middleware giant - not the sovereign system itself, but the bridges between: banks → stablecoins → tokenized assets → custody → prime brokerage → global settlement → XRP/XRPL liquidity. Ripple now markets itself as financial infrastructure for payments, custody, stablecoins, and prime brokerage. Ripple Prime is the first global multi-asset prime broker owned by a crypto company, with 3T+ annual clearing and 300+ institutional customers. RLUSD is positioned as a regulated dollar stablecoin backed by cash, Treasuries, and cash equivalents, with NYDFS and DFSA approval. Ripple Custody is explicitly aimed at institutional tokenization, trading, stablecoin, and RWA infrastructure. The Clarity Act matters because it converts today’s regulatory fog into board-defensible adoption logic. The Senate Banking Committee is set to review the Clarity Act on May 14, 2026, with the bill focused on classifying digital assets and establishing regulatory guidelines. Ripple becomes one of the FEW “ready-now” institutional rails for compliant, global value movement. • RLUSD can serve the regulated dollar leg. • Ripple Custody can secure assets. • Ripple Prime can serve institutions. • RippleNet/Ripple Payments can move value. • XRPL can tokenize and settle. • XRP can serve as neutral bridge liquidity where dollar-to-dollar stablecoin rails are insufficient. Ripple makes large portions of correspondent banking, trapped liquidity, slow settlement, fragmented custody, and legacy FX plumbing ECONOMICALLY OBSOLETE where institutions are legally permitted to adopt faster rails. Ripple is today, the 6th largest, non-public company by market cap valuation, in America. And this is before open issues with China, Iran, Ukraine/Russia, Iraq and the Clarity Act are resolved. This is already world-realigning enough, and we still ain’t see nothing, yet. Two words: “Lock in.” America250 Ripple President Donald J. Trump

Agents will eventually outnumber humans by orders of magnitude. Aaron Levie on the infrastructure that will be needed to manage them: "Whether you think the number is 10x or 100x... we're going to have some order of magnitude more agents than people." "There's going to be just incredibly spectacularly crazy security incidents that will happen with agents, because you'll prompt-inject an agent and find your way through the CRM system and pull out data you shouldn't have access to." "How do you make sure you have the right security, the permissions, the access controls, the data governance?" "We actually don't yet exactly know in many cases how we're going to regulate some of these agents." "No matter what, there's going to need to be a layer that manages the data they have access to and the workflows they're involved in." "This is the new infrastructure opportunity in the era of agents." Aaron Levie on Latent.Space

🌐 XDC Network x Brickken | Institutional Tokenization Infrastructure In our latest XDC Network show, we sat down with Ludo R., Co-Founder and CRO of Brickken, to discuss what real, institutional-grade tokenization looks like in practice today. Brickken has already enabled $300M+ in tokenized value across 16+ jurisdictions, supporting compliant issuance of equity, debt, funds, and real-world assets. This is not experimental infrastructure. It is production-grade. One of the biggest misconceptions is that tokenization is mainly a technical challenge. In reality, the hardest work happens off-chain: legal structuring, jurisdictional compliance, and institutional onboarding. Brickken exists to unify all of this into a single operating layer. We discussed why Brickken chose to integrate with XDC Network. Institutional finance cannot operate on unpredictable costs or congested networks. XDC’s fast finality, near-zero and predictable fees, and enterprise-aligned infrastructure make it a practical foundation for real-world assets. The bigger shift is who is leading adoption. Early narratives focused on retail. What we are seeing now is institutions moving first, driven by efficiency, instant settlement, and operational clarity as regulatory frameworks mature. Tokenization is entering its next phase: plug-and-play infrastructure, institutional-grade standards, and real integration with traditional finance. Podcast supported by XDC Foundation

SITUATION EXPLAINED: The CLARITY Act just cleared Senate Banking, moving the US crypto market-structure bill closer to a full Senate vote. We asked Mysten Labs CEO evan.sui what it means for builders on chains like Sui. His answer was simple. Product teams need to know what is allowed before infrastructure teams can build for them. "Clarity. We're gonna have a lot more clarity about what's allowed, what's not allowed, who are we working with." "Now we can kind of move towards a phase where we at least know what's possible and what requires more guardrails." "It's a big moment." Max Wiethe Jack Farley
