DROPS E25: Shaaran 🛸 from Multipli.fi: Why Trillions Will Soon Move On-Chain!

The real power of tokenization isn't just the asset itself. But also what people build on top of it. 🔧 In our latest Apyx Alpha, xStocks Global Head Val joins us to discuss why tokenized assets like $STRCx could become the foundation for an entirely new generation of financial products. From tokenized equities and digital credit to onchain yield strategies, vaults, and portfolio management, we explore what becomes possible when traditional assets become programmable. Timestamps: • 02:04 Why tokenization failed the first time • 05:50 RWAs as programmable financial Lego pieces • 06:19 How protocols can build yield engines using STRCx • 08:00 Why liquidity, not tokenization, is the real unlock • 10:43 New products emerging from tokenized assets • 11:12 Why yield is becoming the dominant RWA use case • 13:01 The rise of a global market for yield • 17:09 The future of onchain portfolio managers • 19:23 Tokenized ETFs vs building funds directly onchain • 20:17 Why crypto can innovate faster than TradFi If $STRC is digital credit, $STRCx may be what makes digital credit composable.

DROPS E35: Core DAO 🔶 - Bitcoin yield without giving up your Bitcoin Rich is one of the initial contributors to Core DAO, the leading Bitcoin scaling solution. He's also a long-time Zcash holder and early backer of Z Protocol , a new privacy chain built on Core's Satoshi Plus consensus.

The Blueprint for a New Financial System Michael Saylor, founder and Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy, returns to explain how Bitcoin is transforming global capital markets and redefining the future of wealth creation. Drawing from his background in science and engineering, Saylor breaks down how Bitcoin’s architecture merges technology, economics, and mathematics to create the first truly engineered form of sound money — one that’s reshaping corporate finance, investment strategy, and even national policy. In this conversation, we explore why legacy finance is structurally unsustainable, how overcollateralized digital credit could replace sovereign debt, and why Bitcoin’s “refinery model” may ignite a new era of capital efficiency. Saylor details the evolution from digital gold to digital credit, how MicroStrategy’s innovations are setting the blueprint for Bitcoin-backed balance sheets, and why governments, banks, and investors will ultimately be forced to adopt Bitcoin as the foundation of a new global financial system.

The Blueprint for a New Financial System Michael Saylor, founder and Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy, returns to explain how Bitcoin is transforming global capital markets and redefining the future of wealth creation. Drawing from his background in science and engineering, Saylor breaks down how Bitcoin’s architecture merges technology, economics, and mathematics to create the first truly engineered form of sound money — one that’s reshaping corporate finance, investment strategy, and even national policy. In this conversation, we explore why legacy finance is structurally unsustainable, how overcollateralized digital credit could replace sovereign debt, and why Bitcoin’s “refinery model” may ignite a new era of capital efficiency. Saylor details the evolution from digital gold to digital credit, how MicroStrategy’s innovations are setting the blueprint for Bitcoin-backed balance sheets, and why governments, banks, and investors will ultimately be forced to adopt Bitcoin as the foundation of a new global financial system.

Tokenization is no longer theory - it’s policy. Shaaran 🛸 makes a compelling point: banks are sitting on trillions in treasuries, and now it’s legal to tokenize and move them on-chain. But don’t expect yield. That’s not the unlock. The real benefit? Speed, access, and efficiency. Stablecoins are the obvious first step, but gold, sovereign reserves, even private equity are next. We’re not just digitizing assets - we’re reshaping how they move, settle, and create markets in places where none existed before. This isn’t about calling everything a “real world asset.” It’s about removing friction from the global financial system. Podcast out Saturday! Multipli.fi
