“We have to get the TradFi Dollars over to DeFi.” RWAs have proven demand, distribution is the next challenge. It’s how the rails get built to take this from billions to trillions. In this special episode of Capital Rails, we sit down with Mike Cagney, Co-Founder & Executive Chairman of Figure Technologies (Nasdaq: FIGR), alongside Yat Siu to examine how the distribution layer for on-chain RWAs is being built. NUVA Finance has officially launched on Ethereum, serving as a distribution layer that connects some of the largest institutional RWA pools on Provenance Blockchain, including Figure’s natively on-chain home equity lines of credit through Hastra, to the broader DeFi ecosystem.

"We're not interested in building tech for tech's sake. We're interested in solving what on-chain users actually want to trade." Lucas Schuermann explains the dual-product vision at Variational: "On the retail side: hundreds of perps and CFDs across not just crypto, but global equities, commodities, stocks in Korea and Japan with TradFi-quality liquidity, not the thin liquidity that comes from every new order book bootstrapping from scratch." "On the institutional side, Variational Pro: OTC derivatives, structured products, options. As tokenization and regulatory frameworks mature, institutions take on these products at scale."

Standard Chartered’s Geoffrey Kendrick explains his $40,000 ETH price target by 2030 “I think a lot of [tradfi activity] happens on Ethereum Layer 1. I think about how BlackRock rolled out BUIDL, for example — all on layer 1 Ethereum… which I think is a more logical playbook for how tradfi will approach this buildout in the next year. And if you assume that more activity equals higher token price — which I think is correct (today I find the best measure is fees paid on the applications or protocols built on the Ethereum network) — I think that means ETH outperforms now and for the foreseeable.” Geoffrey Kendrick is the Global Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered and former Head of Asia FX & Rates Strategy at Morgan Stanley. He believes the ETH/BTC ratio will go from 0.03 today to 0.04 by the end of 2026, which is a $4,000 price target for ETH at $100,000 BTC. “My long-term forecast is $500,000 BTC by 2030 and $40,000 Ethereum by 2030… roughly 20x [for Ethereum], but a huge outperformance [versus Bitcoin] as well. And it’s because all the use cases we’ve been talking about, will almost all happen on Ethereum.” Source: Milk Road Milk RoadMacro Standard Chartered

BREAKING: WISDOMTREE JUST CHOSE SOLANA TO TOKENIZE WALL STREET. $140 billion asset manager WisdomTree is bringing real-world funds on-chain and the entire engine runs on Plume Network. The quiet part nobody’s saying out loud: They didn’t pick Ethereum L2s. They picked Solana. Why? - Institutional-grade compliance baked in - Verifiable cashflows with ZK proofs - Sub-second finality on high-speed rails - Programmable TradFi exposure from day one - Global, permissionless access to tokenized funds This isn’t another RWA experiment. This is infrastructure being built at scale. WisdomTree isn’t testing tokenization. They’re deploying it. The biggest funds in the world are quietly rotating to Solana. Plume is the layer making it possible. You’re not early to the headline. You’re early to the rails. Follow the capital. The migration has begun. Solana isn’t coming for DeFi. It’s coming for Wall Street.

If you hold $XRP, you need to watch this 👇 Asheesh Birla. A decade building in the XRP ecosystem. Now CEO of Evernorth. And he's telling you exactly what's coming. Evernorth is building an institutional XRP treasury. Not paper exposure. Actual XRP. Deployed into yield strategies on XRPL DeFi. Providing institutional liquidity. Running validators. Bringing new partners onto the ledger. Strip that down to what it means for supply dynamics. Institutions buying and holding XRP for yield. Not flipping. Holding. That's sustained spot demand pulling tokens off the market. Deeper liquidity on XRPL means tighter spreads. Better execution at size. The rails become usable for real money flows. A planned Nasdaq listing opens the pipe for allocators who can't touch tokens directly. Regulatory clarity is the catalyst. Institutional capital is the fuel. XRPL DeFi is the engine. Every condition needed for XRP to reach levels most people won't say out loud is being built right now. Treasury accumulation. On-chain TradFi activity. XRP as working capital and collateral. Yield markets that make institutions want to hold, not trade. The path to $XRP above $100 used to sound impossible. That's changing. Institutional treasuries accumulating. On-chain TradFi. Deep yield markets. Tokenization. XRP as a settlement layer for real money. Every single one of those conditions is now actively being built. The road to $100 gets shorter every day. Don't say nobody told you.

Bittensor $TAO just got talked about on the floor of the NYSE 🏛 Evan Malanga, CRO of Yuma, went on FINTECH.TV's Market Movers at the Opening Bell. This isn't crypto Twitter. This is traditional finance media broadcast from inside the New York Stock Exchange. The audience is institutional investors, fund managers, and TradFi professionals. He broke down: → How $TAO democratizes AI through token incentives → The subnet architecture and competitive miner design → Why Bittensor is like the early World Wide Web for intelligence → Real-world applications with builders competing to produce AI outputs → TradFi rails entering the crypto ecosystem The signal here is clear. Yuma is DCG-backed. They're not just building subnets they're putting $TAO in front of the people who write the checks. Grayscale Trust. Deutsche Digital Assets ETP. Connecticut state VC fund. And now NYSE floor interviews. This is how institutional adoption actually happens. Not announcements. Conversations in the rooms that matter. $TAO is being positioned as infrastructure, not speculation. Watch the full interview: The people who need to see Bittensor are starting to see it.

To the $XRP Community, watch this video and genuinely answer me this: 1. Why has Ripple been dumping XRP on retail? 2. If Ripple can change the rules, isn’t that TradFi with blockchain branding and how is it different from SWIFT or PayPal? 3. Why is RippleNet run by a centralized set of validators controlled mostly by Ripple Labs and so, why does Ripple call the XRPL “decentralized?” 4. Ripple is heavily focused on banks, central banks, and payment networks. Where does the public use case for XRP come in? Wouldn’t it be right to say that Jed left Ripple because he envisioned a decentralized, public protocol and not just a tool for banks?

TradFi and DeFi Converged at SmartCon 🤝🏽 SmartCon 2025 proved that the gap between Traditional Finance and DeFi is closing. We were proud to be an integral part of this convergence, demonstrating how is utilizing the Chainlink standard to build the next generation of institutional-grade liquid staking. Here are three ways we are evolving the protocol: 1.Building the Onchain LST Index: As revealed in our SmartCon talk, we are building the industry's first Liquid Staking Token (LST) Index. This product aggregates the best of DeFi, powered by Chainlink’s secure infrastructure. 2.Scaling with CRE: We are among the first to adopt the Chainlink Runtime Environment. This orchestration layer is critical for automating the complex cross-chain workflows required to manage a robust LST Index at scale. 3.Future-Proofing with ACE: To truly marry TradFi and DeFi, compliance is key. We are preparing to integrate the Automated Compliance Engine (ACE) to ensure our products meet the strict regulatory standards required to welcome institutional capital on-chain. Read the full roadmap:

🚨BREAKING: Ripple's “JoelKatz” Says XRPL Is Built to CAPTURE TRILLIONS as DeFi Stalls at $150B — “Smart Contracts Are NOT the Advantage” 👀🔥 According to Ripple Board Member & ex-CTO David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz, the entire DeFi market has stuck around $150B for 2 years — and much of that growth came from token prices rising, not real economic expansion. 😳 Meanwhile? 👉 The TradFi lending market is in the TRILLIONS. And according to him, THAT is where the real opportunity lies. 👀 “We’re not going to get into the multi-trillion dollar TradFi market with cryptocurrency speculation… We need tokenized real-world assets, equities, bonds, money market funds.” XRPL’s lack of smart contracts isn’t a weakness — it’s a STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE. 🤯 On most chains, lending runs through competing smart contracts, often controlled by small groups, exposed to bugs, exploits, and governance drama. On XRPL? Core lending features are embedded DIRECTLY into the ledger. “You’ll have a unified, best-in-class implementation presented by the ledger.” 🚀 XRPL just positioned itself as the BRIDGE between TRADITIONAL and DECENTRALIZED markets. 🤑
