Larry Fink says tokenization could do for finance what the internet did to mail — and BlackRock isn't waiting around. With $150B already in digital markets, the world's largest asset manager is building the future it's describing.
In an exclusive interview from Consensus Hong Kong, BridgePort CEO Nirup Ramalingam breaks down the critical shift toward off-exchange settlement, mitigating counterparty risks, and building the essential institutional crypto infrastructure needed to mature the market.
The collaboration highlights a deepening integration between one of the largest public XRP treasury companies and a core onchain infrastructure provider, paving the way for deeper convergence between traditional finance and XRPL-native financial systems.
This partnership marks the first collaboration between SBI Ripple Asia and an XRPL-native protocol, signaling a new chapter for institutional-grade finance on the XRP Ledger. Through this alignment, both parties aim to accelerate the adoption of transparent, compliant, and yield-generating products built on the XRPL.
The release arrives at a time when global derivatives volumes continue to concentrate around a handful of exchanges and long-standing debates around market structure, security practices, and transparency persist.
