We’re going to just deliver in 2026 and let the results speak for themselves. This partnership is very exciting news for the network, and looks like several hundred million in buy side incoming already. This will be a year of determined focus and execution on the distribution layer, as well as deal flow like this.

@OndoFinance Terrible news, our deepest condolences

It is with profound sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Nathan Allman, Ondo's founder. Our hearts are with his family and loved ones. Nate’s brilliance, humility, and drive shaped every part of what Ondo is today. His belief in the power of technology to create a more open, accessible financial system lives on in everything we build. The impact he had on this industry, and on all of us personally, cannot be overstated. Nate also helped us build a durable organization with experienced leaders across all facets of the business. Ian De Bode, Ondo Finance’s longtime President, will serve as CEO. Ian has been leading our strategy, product, and day-to-day operations for over two years and has the full confidence of the leadership team. We will continue building what Nate started. That is the most meaningful way we know to honor him.

HODLing’s about to pay off. Watch this space.

Breakfast Series by BNY Investments panel discussion about Digital Assets "Hype or the Future of HNW Portfolios?" in Kuala Lumpur. The Southeast Asia region is ramping up RWA Tokenisation initiatives, driven by regulators and early adopters such as Chintai. We shared our regulated platform and solution with fund managers and MFOs in Malaysia earlier today.

@damandeuk Yeah that’s why I said “roughly”, it’s 20 odd years ago and around that time but not exact prob

@GunnisonCap This photo was 2006 pal 🤣

I was this old roughly last this happened. Highbury circa 2004.

Imagine if SpaceX IPO’s at $1.6 trillion market cap, and then over the next year the US government confirm other forms of propulsion tech they’ve been sitting on for decades that make all the rocketry completely obsolete.. definitely the most entertaining outcome.

Speaking on RWA on the panel now

My view is that yield bearing RWA products should be the driver of DeFi yields - sustainable, provably backed, and with strict controls on onward utilisation schemes (or certainly the companies handling such products do not accept other forms of collateral against those). The entire industry needs to grow up and focus on sustainable, real returns for investors and not cooking up schemes that the finance industry rightly got penalized for in 2008.

Most #DeFi TVL is a honeypot — permissionless code + billions in public contracts = repeated exploits. Better model (#RWA): #Origination + #Tokenization on a permissioned, regulated chain (KYC/AML, licensed operators) with real-world institutional yields. Then distribute the tokenized assets across public layers to enhance liquidity and composability. This is where sustainable capital actually flows. Higher security where it matters. Doing things right matters.

This is the reality of the majority of DeFi - nominally decentralized at best. At which point higher security is arguably preferable for many.

"so you staked your ETH on the Ethereum blockchain to earn yield?" "yes, Dave" "except you didn't want your capital to be locked up so you actually staked it with a liquid staking protocol called Lido?" "that's correct, Dave" "and Lido gave you a liquid staking receipt token called stETH in return?" "yes, Dave" "and then you didn't think that was enough, so you juiced the yield even further by depositing your stETH receipt tokens into a restaking protocol called Eigenlayer?" "you are correct, Dave" "and now you didn't want to lock up your capital, so you actually restaked with a liquid restaking protocol called KelpDAO who provided you with a liquid restaking receipt token called rsETH?" "you got it, Dave" "and then that was surely not enough juice, so you then deposited your rsETH tokens into a lending protocol called AAVE so that you could open a leveraged looping position that borrows ETH against the rsETH collateral and restakes the ETH into rsETH which is then deposited as collateral, except it turns out rsETH used a cross-chain bridge called LayerZero whose security is held together by a 1/1 toothpick, which was obviously hacked by north koreans causing rsETH to become undercollateralized and now these looping positions are stuck and unprofitable, and everyone is pointing fingers at each other, and also DeFi is a very serious industry" "you are 100% correct, dave" jfc.

@SonicAgamemnon @RalfWeinand Thanks for the summary, hope that’s useful for people

@SplyceFi @SuiFoundation @StellarOrg @SolanaFndn @LucidDrakes @SarsonFunds Congrats guys, a huge milestone and no small achievement in this environment.

Splyce has closed its strategic round. Backed by @SuiFoundation, @StellarOrg, @SolanaFndn, @LucidDrakes, @SarsonFunds and Kin Capital. $342 billion in real-world assets have been tokenized. Less than 8% is usable in DeFi. The gap isn't supply. It's infrastructure. Institutional capital needs fixed-rate lending onchain. Splyce gives borrowers rate certainty and lenders real yield. More soon.

Gold is one of the world’s oldest stores of value. Tokenisation enables investors to own fractional shares of vaulted physical gold and trade it globally on blockchain networks. Chintai provides regulated infrastructure for tokenised gold investments. Explore the tokenisation of precious metals with a use case. @ChintaiNexus or email hello@chintai.io

Join us for the next AMA with CEO @GunnisonCap April 15th 12pm ET. x.com/i/spaces/1YGNr…

Gold and precious metals are entering the tokenisation era. Benefits include: • Fractional ownership • Faster settlement • Global investor access With Chintai’s regulated infrastructure, institutions can launch tokenised commodity products.

The entire concept of a “non crime hate incident” or words that “cause someone else distress” as resulting in people being arrested and harrassed into submission and silence by the UK police is both Orwellian and a disgrace to the country that gave the world Magna Carta. You won’t see some thanks from me for this, it’s the absolute least you should do. The entire “online safety” bill needs to be abolished next too.

Police time will no longer be wasted investigating legal social media posts, freeing up officers to patrol the streets and tackle real crime. By scrapping Non‑Crime Hate Incidents, we are balancing the protection of vulnerable communities while respecting free speech.
