LMAX CEO: Why Everything Will Be Tokenized theblock.co/post/404178/lmax…

Brian Armstrong on the Clarity Act: “I think it will unlock a lot of institutional capital that will flow to the space broadly” “The Clarity Act is about much more than stablecoins and rewards. I think it will create a lot of opportunities for people to work on tokenization, clarity about what is a commodity versus a security, exchanges and what their roles are. DeFi has an important role to play here. Self-custodial wallets. There’s going to be lots of energy that comes out of it.” “I think it’s going to be a little bit like when the GENIUS Act passed for stablecoins and we saw a couple hundred large companies in the U.S. come out in the subsequent months and announce integrations with stablecoins. This means that hopefully lots of companies, in a world post Clarity being passed, will come out and start to integrate crypto. They might use it to raise money on chain. They might use it to provide crypto services to their customers. I think it will just unlock a lot of institutional capital that will flow into the space broadly.” “We think it’s going to be very additive. We want every company to be integrated into the crypto-enabled financial system, just like they use the internet, AI, or any other technology.” Source: @coinbase (May 2026)

Near real-time collateral mobility could help financial institutions reduce liquidity buffers and lower capital requirements, but only with infrastructure built to support it. Our new white paper, Collateral Infrastructure for Tokenized Capital Markets, developed in collaboration with Finadium, makes the case that tokenized collateral could help unlock significant capital efficiencies, transform liquidity management and potentially benefit early movers as settlement cycles shorten and digital assets adoption accelerates.
