This week, we're joined by special guest Tarun Gupta, CEO and co-founder of Coinshift, to discuss stablecoin adoption globally and his long-term vision for decentralized finance.In the market update, we highlight large inflows into BTC, CME flows up over 100% month-over-month, and a strong front-month basis at 11%. We also break down what's next for BTC and key support levels.On the macro front, we recap last week's Non-Farm Payrolls, discuss equity market valuations, preview this week's FOMC decision, and consider what to expect from the Milken Conference and key crypto earnings. In the news section, we cover Arizona's rejection of a proposal to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve—and Schwab and Morgan Stanley's plans to launch crypto trading. We also cover the revival of virtual asset platforms with the launch of Genesis, and continued explosive growth in real-world assets (RWAs), including Telegram's $500M tokenized bond fund and BlackRock's BUIDL reaching $2.8B in TVL, up from $665M in March. BlackRock has also filed to tokenize a $150B Treasury trust fund on Ethereum.Onchain, we discuss Apple's relaxation of crypto app rules—allowing Bitcoin and crypto payments, NFTs, and reduced App Store fees—and Solana's patch of a zero-day vulnerability in its ElGamal Proof program. We close with key upcoming catalysts: the FOMC decision on May 7, and Ethereum's Pectra upgrade also expected on May 7.Topics Covered:Special Guests:Tarun Gupta on stablecoin adoptionMarket Update: BTC inflows, CME flows +100% MoM, front-month basis at 11%, key support levelsMacro Overview: Non-Farm Payrolls, equity market valuations, FOMC expectations, Milken Conference, crypto earningsNews & Policy: Bitcoin reserve proposal rejections, Schwab & Morgan Stanley crypto plans, virtuals revival, Telegram & BlackRock RWA expansionOnchain Insights: Apple relaxes app rules, Solana patches zero-day vulnerabilityCatalysts Ahead: FOMC Meeting (May 7), Ethereum Pectra Upgrade (May 7), multiple crypto company earnings (May 8)Host:Ben Floyd, Head of Execution ServicesSpeakers:David Duong, Head of Institutional ResearchBrock Miller, Senior Staff Software EngineerJoshua Pak, Senior CES Sales TraderCoinbase News:MANTLE-USD, WLD-USD available on Coinbase Exchange and Advanced Trade

Tokenisatie is een begrip dat steeds vaker opduikt in zowel de cryptowereld als daarbuiten. Kort gezegd houdt tokenisatie in dat je eigendom, rechten of andere waarde vertegenwoordigt in de vorm van een digitaal token. Deze tokens kunnen draaien op blockchainnetwerken zoals Ethereum en zijn zichtbaar in je digitale wallet. De toepassingen van tokens zijn divers: ze kunnen bewijs van eigenaarschap bieden, rechten vertegenwoordigen (zoals stemrecht of toegang) of zelfs een combinatie van beide functies. Om ons een wegwijs te maken in deze wereld, is Olivier Rikken te gast, head of research bij stichting 2Tokens en onderzoeker op het gebied van blockchain bij onder meer de TU Delft. NFT's, die vaak in verband worden gebracht met tokenisatie, vallen technisch gezien ook onder dit concept. Waar reguliere tokens doorgaans fungibel zijn (onderling uitwisselbaar), hebben NFT's juist unieke eigenschappen. Dat maakt ze bijvoorbeeld geschikt voor digitale kunstwerken of eigendomsbewijzen van unieke objecten. In tegenstelling tot 'normale' tokens, die vooral als betaalmiddel of utility token fungeren, bieden NFT's de mogelijkheid om niet-vervangbare waarde vast te leggen. Waarom is tokenisatie zo interessant? Het biedt niet alleen de mogelijkheid om eigendom of rechten digitaal vast te leggen, maar ook om deze direct over te dragen zonder tussenkomst van traditionele partijen. Dit verschilt van cryptovaluta zoals Bitcoin, die primair als ruilmiddel dienen. Tokenisatie richt zich meer op het verhandelbaar maken van bestaande waarden of rechten, zoals vastgoed, aandelen of zelfs identiteiten. Onze gast van vandaag werkt bij de stichting 2Tokens, een organisatie die de voor- en nadelen van tokenisatie onderzoekt en juridische hindernissen in kaart brengt. Het doel is om meer bewustwording te creëren rondom de waarde van tokenisatie. In Nederland is dat bewustzijn de laatste jaren wat afgenomen. Hoewel we ooit koploper waren op dit gebied, lopen landen zoals Duitsland inmiddels voorop. De Verenigde Staten tonen ook een gemengd beeld: hoewel er veel innovatie plaatsvindt, blijven juridische vraagstukken rondom tokenisatie een remmende factor. Een belangrijk punt bij tokenisatie is de juridische geldigheid. Kan je zomaar alles tokeniseren en geldt dat dan ook in de praktijk? Bijvoorbeeld, een huis tokeniseren en verkopen klinkt aantrekkelijk, maar juridisch gezien is dat niet zomaar geldig. Hier komen wetten zoals MiCAR (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) om de hoek kijken, die in Europa een kader bieden voor dit soort vraagstukken. De grote uitdaging ligt in het creëren van een duidelijk juridisch kader, zodat er geen koudwatervrees ontstaat bij bedrijven en organisaties. Ook de praktische toepassing van tokenisatie roept vragen op. In Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO's) wordt bijvoorbeeld onderzocht hoe governance en eigendomsrechten via tokens geregeld kunnen worden. Daarnaast zijn er experimenten met het tokeniseren van 'real world assets' zoals vastgoed of aandelen. Een voorbeeld van een succesvolle use case zijn stablecoins: bijna alle stablecoins functioneren als tokens en bieden een stabiele waardeoverdracht via blockchaintechnologie. Ook in Nederland zien we projecten zoals Assetblocks, dat vastgoedtokenisatie toepast, en GUTS, dat tickets uitgeeft als NFT's. Toch blijft de adoptie bij Nederlandse banken achter. Grote financiële instellingen experimenteren wel, maar concrete innovaties blijven uit. Een voorbeeld uit het buitenland is Societe Generale, dat werkt met een stablecoin voor interne betalingen. Daarnaast experimenteert BlackRock met een getokeniseerd fonds op Ethereum, genaamd BUIDL. Dit maakt gebruik van de transparantie en verhandelbaarheid van tokens, wat vooral handig kan zijn voor complexe beleggingsproducten. Het blijft nog onduidelijk op welke blockchains deze toepassingen uiteindelijk het meeste zullen plaatsvinden. Voor nu lijkt Ethereum een logische keuze vanwege de bestaande infrastructuur, maar er zijn ook alternatieven in opkomst die mogelijk beter aansluiten bij specifieke use cases.

The market value of tokenized U.S. Treasury securities has exceeded $5 billion for the first time this week, marking a $1 billion increase in just two weeks. This surge is primarily driven by the tokenized Treasury fund BUIDL, launched by asset management giant BlackRock and digital asset company Securitize. Meanwhile, Securitize unveiled Converge, a cutting-edge EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain that seamlessly integrates traditional finance with decentralized finance for tokenized assets and digital dollars.~This Episode is Sponsored By Coinbase~ Get up to $200 for getting started on Coinbase➜ https://bit.ly/CBARRON00:00 Intro00:15 Sponsor: Coinbase00:33 BlackRock BUIDL Explodes01:26 Growth Rate02:07 Securitize Unveils New blockchain on Ethereum 02:45 TradFi to Defi Opportunity03:09 BlackRock head of digital assets03:40 BlackRock Team Prefers Ethereum04:11 Avalanche will onboard banks & neobanks06:00 Vlad: Robinhood roadmap06:36 Uniswap growth06:51 ETH Validators climbing again07:15 Robinhood Wealth Transfer07:51 Etherealize08:15 NYSE: ETH winning over boomers10:24 Ethereum = Amazon growth?11:08 Outro#Ethereum #Crypto #cryptocurrency ~BlackRock Goes All-In on Ethereum!

In today's episode, we cover how regulation meets the greater crypto economy.Treasury tokens have evolved from concept to reality, now trading actively in DeFi markets with BlackRock and Securitize leading the transformation. By converting U.S. treasuries into blockchain assets with institutional backing, they're laying groundwork for wider adoption.We sat down with Robinson Burkey, Co-Founder & CCO of Wormhole and Carlos Domingo, CEO of Securitize to go over how utility drives this innovation through cross-chain accessibility and DeFi integration, establishing these tokens as foundational collateral infrastructure. Robinson highlights seamless cross-chain movement as being critical, while Carlos points out institutions shift from viewing blockchain as merely an efficiency tool to seeing it as an opportunity engine.Though regulatory, KYC, and institutional barriers persist, the momentum continues building.
