Weak Payrolls, A Productivity Boom, and Disruptive Tech On this week’s Behind the Markets we hash out the latest macro releases +the Iran conflict with Prof Siegel, @SamuelRines @JeffWeniger + A special bonus deeper dive. In 2nd half of pod, I chat with @iandebode from @OndoFinance and @MaredithH1 Disruptive tech fears recently center around AI impacting software. But another big disruptive tech stack is increasingly impacting finance and traditional banking models--despite current bear market in Bitcoin. A great discussion on tokenization developments and some of latest regulatory dynamics across the world. Biased based on the front row seat I have to watch what @wbpeck team is working on: I'm a bit longer-term bearish banks. LINK for weekend pod queue: open.spotify.com/episode/5JPTHB…

What's driving institutions to bring assets onchain? Hear about the future of RWAs & stablecoins from Maredith Hannon, Head of BD, Digital Assets, @WisdomTreeFunds. Live from Secure the Future: NYC!

We’re excited to announce that WisdomTree (@WisdomTreeFunds), a global asset manager with $130B+ AUM, has adopted Chainlink to bring institutional-grade NAV data onchain to power subscriptions and redemptions for its CRDT tokenized fund on Ethereum. prnewswire.com/news-releases/… The WisdomTree Private Credit and Alternative Income Digital Fund (CRDT) is a tokenized private credit fund that provides exposure to a diversified portfolio of liquid private credit and alternative income instruments, tracking the Gapstow Liquid Alternative Credit Index (GLACI). By bringing the CRDT fund’s NAV data onchain via the Chainlink data standard, WisdomTree can enable subscriptions and redemptions through its Prime and Connect platforms, while ensuring that the fund maintains institutional-grade transparency, auditability, and interoperability with the broader digital asset ecosystem. With verified NAV data available on Ethereum via Chainlink, DeFi protocols and institutional platforms can also now reference CRDT’s valuation in smart contracts, unlocking new use cases across lending, yield aggregation, and automated portfolio management.
