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.

"It's a sign that crypto actually built infrastructure that works. But is it bullish for the projects and tokens involved? I'm not sure it is" Joshua Frank on what Robinhood building on Arbitrum really means for crypto "There's a reason Robinhood is choosing to do this onchain. They can go 24/7, low fee trading for their customers. But Robinhood is operating all the sequencers behind the scenes. It's their chain, they're controlling everything. It's not like Arbitrum is being used for transactions of any sort" "As we saw with Base and Optimism, loyalty is not necessarily a real thing. But obviously they saw something in Arbitrum's technology they liked, so maybe that's bullish broadly for Arbitrum" "The reality is it probably creates more demand for trading tokenized equities 24/7. Maybe dYdX or other platforms offering that are able to generate fees back to token holders. A few years ago the crypto market would have reacted and ARB would have been up 70% on the day. But this is just a picks and shovels kind of play"

"Tokenized assets are exploding in value." Ian de Bode is President Ondo Finance, the company bringing US treasuries, stocks, and ETFs on-chain. He watched tokenized treasuries grow from $1 billion to $15 billion in two years.

"You should prepare for a world in which tokenized securities co-exist with normal securities. So get ready." We cover: Why tokenized assets exploded from $1B to $15B and aren't slowing down How every crypto exchange became a stock broker overnight Why Tesla and Google don't care about tokenizing their stock (and why that doesn't matter) How every token is backed 1:1 with daily third-party attestations Why tokenized stocks work like stablecoins: your wallet, no permissions, 24/7 How hedge fund leverage loops and carry trades come to DeFi Why perps on stocks could become a bigger market than all of crypto The road to markets that never close and who moves first What the Genius Act and Clarity Act actually signal Thanks to Ian De Bode for coming on New Era Finance Podcast.

Johann Kerbrat on why Robinhood is building its own L2 on Ethereum At Consensus Hong Kong in February 2026, Robinhood launched a public testnet for Robinhood Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 built with Arbitrum. Following six months of private testing, Robinhood plans to launch the mainnet in 2026 and will migrate tokenized US stocks and ETFs currently offered to EU customers on Arbitrum One to its own dedicated Arbitrum-powered L2 that still settles on Ethereum. Coinbase has adopted a similar strategy with its plans to take full control over Base’s tech stack and advance the L2 toward Stage 2 decentralization. Robinhood Head of Crypto Johann Kerbrat explains the rationale behind building an L2: “We can still get the security and liquidity of Ethereum, benefit from all of the work that the Arbitrum team has done, and on top of that, customize [the chain] every time we want to build something.” He continues: “If we want to give people access to all of the tools and elements of traditional finance, we also need flexibility [to comply with] what regulators are asking us to do. A world where you have full privacy and you can do whatever you want without KYC and trade securities is still a bit far for us. But what we are trying to find is a good middle ground. You will be on a permissionless chain. You will be able to interact with DeFi and do a lot of things with your stock tokens. We think it’s a great compromise.” Galaxy Head of Research Alex Thorn points out that you can embed a lot of compliance controls at the application and token layers on top of Ethereum.

.Charles Yoo-Naut (🌧️,🌧️) is one of the most quietly consequential founders in not just onchain finance, but fintech as a whole. He and farooq 🌧 started building Rain in 2021, before the GENIUS Act, before stablecoin legislation was even a conversation, when the industry was still debating whether crypto had real use cases at all. Rain was built on a belief that every financial product will eventually run on stablecoin rails, and that cards are the bridge to get there. Charles rebuilt the modern money stack from the ground up, powered by stablecoins. Today Rain processes over $3 billion a year in card volume, having raised over $300 million in three rounds across 12 months, hitting a $1.95 billion valuation. Charles sat down with Drew Rogers in San Francisco to discuss: - What it actually looks like when stablecoins settle end to end on Visa rails - Why Rain's biggest customers are companies that didn't exist two years ago - The moment cross-border payments stop needing banks in the middle - What happens when agents start making purchases, and who is liable - How a 95-person company avoids the Block trap of hiring 8,000 - Why the line between a card payment and a stablecoin payment is about to disappear - What it feels like to become a dad while scaling a company at this pace Timestamps: 02:29 - $250M Series C, $1.95B valuation 03:40 - The conviction that started four years early 06:08 - $3B annualized card volume 08:33 - USDC settlement with Visa 12:33 - From "Ramp for DAOs" to the full TAM 14:36 - Western Union and the stablecoin sandwich 21:36 - 17 days to go live 26:15 - "I don't know if I could be an AI founder right now" 33:50 - Stablecoins passing cardholder to merchant 44:01 - Microtransactions and content paywalls 46:33 - Becoming a dad Presented by Altitude

"AI will reduce your bottom line and stablecoins will ultimately increase your top line." kareem saw this coming early. He positioned Entendre to build FOR stablecoin native companies, instead of building one himself. As stablecoins began to solve real problems, the winners would grow into massive businesses onchain with complex books to close. So he built the accounting tooling those companies would need to scale. Before Entendre, he built cash management systems at Workday, then joined WeWork at peak valuation, where 300+ accountants couldn't keep up with the accounting at scale. When ChatGPT launched, he founded Entendre with his brother Omar and designer Andy, and the three of them built AI accounting software for some of the fastest growing organizations in the world. They built agents to automate stablecoin and digital asset accounting for companies like Polygon Labs, Brale, Courtyard, and Babylon Labs. In the last 12 months, their customers have raised over $1 billion in venture capital. Last month MoonPay 🟣 acquired the company to power the financial operations layer of the stablecoin economy. His bet: by 2030 half the accountants will have retired, every dollar moving onchain still has to land in a ledger, and agents are how the books get kept. Kareem's conversation with : 1:30 - Youngest engineer on Workday's financial side 6:44 - Why everyone used to fight over the general ledger 10:11 - WeWork at peak valuation and 300 accountants falling behind 13:05 - How he built Cloud Kitchens' money platform from scratch 19:22 - 3 million CPAs, $100T GDP, and 50% retiring by 2030 21:04 - Why stablecoins grow top line and AI cuts bottom line 23:41 - Three levels of AI adoption and where most people are stuck 29:00 - How ChatGPT's launch led to founding Entendre 31:29 - Customers who've raised over $1 billion in VC 35:37 - Polygon Labs: 32 legal entities on one platform 37:51 - Dual Entry and the $90M AI-native ERP partnership 38:33 - Why MoonPay acquired Entendre 43:17 - First startup, first exit, first time raising capital 52:44 - 10x revenue growth and the 2025 inflection point Episode 0052.
