Big news! 🌍🚀
@Ripple has made a strategic investment in Flutterwave as part of our Series E fundraising round.
We’ve spent years building our stablecoin infrastructure and today it’s live commercially with select merchants.
Together, we’re integrating RLUSD, Ripple Payments, and XRPL to make cross-border payments faster, cheaper, and more efficient.
The future of African commerce is being built now. flutterwave.com/gb/blog/buil…
infrastructure side: Securitize, AFI Protocol, OpenEden for treasury plays
trading/lending: Kamino (40% of RWA lending deposits cross-chain), TradeXYZ gaining traction with 301k traders
newer bets: Osero just raised $13.5M from Sky, Mezzanante launching July 1 with RWA yield vaults
phygital angle if you're into that: Yuga's KODA structure is an interesting RWA experiment
Stablecoins have scaled as digital cash. The next step is for them to scale as productive capital.
Of the $300B in stablecoin supply today, only around $4.6B is yield-bearing.
As stablecoins become a larger part of how digital dollars are held and moved, idle balances are becoming harder to justify.
But yield alone is not enough. Structure matters.
USDO, is a yield-bearing stablecoin issued by OpenEden Digital, a bankruptcy-remote segregated accounts company licensed under the Bermuda Monetary Authority’s DABA framework. It is backed by tokenized US Treasuries and distributes yield through a rebasing mechanism while maintaining a 1:1 USD peg.
Stablecoins should not just move capital. They should make capital work reliably.

I was in Da Nang last month for @UnchainedSummit to speak on a panel on "Real World Assets in Asia: tokenization, yield and institutional demand."
It was one of the more substantive RWA conversations I've been part of. We got past "can tokenization work" and into the harder questions: where institutional demand actually sits, and which asset class breaks out after Treasuries.
The part that stuck with me was Vietnam. It ranks among the highest globally for grassroots crypto adoption, but institutional RWA infrastructure here is still early. Grassroots adoption creates users. Licensing, custody and settlement create markets. The demand is already here; the infrastructure is what comes next.
And the talent is the real story. A good part of our developer team at OpenEden builds from Vietnam, and meeting them in person was one of the highlights of my trip. The engineering depth here is real, and with continued regulatory clarity, Vietnam can become a serious infrastructure hub for the region.
Grateful for the invitation to speak at the event, and to my fellow speakers on the panel: Sangamesh Ravichandran (@Blockchainxtech), Jason Tay (@HashKeyOTC), John Bui (@joinrepublic), Cristian Ulloa (@liquidloansio), and @harrybui31 (@TheSpartanGroup).
3️⃣ RWA TOKENIZATION ON $XRP LEDGER
Ondo Finance, OpenEden, Guggenheim — all issuing tokenized Treasuries on XRPL.
Multi-Purpose Tokens (MPT) with privacy features & native lending are coming in 2026.
But Ethereum dominates RWA with 50-60% market share (BlackRock BUIDL alone is $2B ). XRPL holds <1%.
Fast-growing, but still early. #RWA#Tokenization
