Podcasts about Tokenization

New infrastructure primitives are creating entirely new rails for building.In this episode of Big Ideas 2026, we explore three foundational shifts that unlock new markets and workflows, not through incremental upgrades, but through primitives that compound over time.First, programmable money evolves beyond stablecoins into on-chain credit origination and synthetic financial products, offering lower operational costs and greater composability than traditional finance. Second, autonomy begins entering scientific research through collaborative labs, where AI reasoning models work alongside automation and robotics, and interpretability becomes essential for progress. Third, distribution itself becomes a primitive, as AI-native startups win early by selling to other startups at formation, then scale alongside the next generation of companies.You will hear from Guy Willette on the next phase of on-chain finance, Oliver Shu on autonomous labs and AI-assisted discovery, and James da Costa on the greenfield go-to-market strategy.Together, these ideas define what new infrastructure primitives really mean: the rails that enable entirely new systems to emerge, compound, and scale. Resources:Read more all of our 2026 Big IdeasPart 1: https://a16z.com/newsletter/big-ideas-2026-part-1Part 2: https://a16z.com/newsletter/big-ideas-2026-part-2/Part 3: https://a16z.com/newsletter/big-ideas-2026-part-3/Crypto Big Ideas: https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/big-ideas-things-excited-about-crypto-2026/ Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

For episode 654 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Jason Dehni of BlackOpal.BlackOpal is an on-chain asset management and payments platform bridging investment-grade yield with emerging market receivables. The problem they're solving is twofold: High-quality merchants in emerging markets pay above-market premiums for working capital, not because they're risky, but because legacy banking is expensive, slow, and opaque. Meanwhile, institutional capital in developed markets is starved for low-risk emerging market yield.BlackOpal specializes in credit card receivables, underwriting based on historical and real time transactions, and acquiring them via short-duration True Sale structures. Credit risk is further minimized through repayment by AA+ counterparties like Visa and Mastercard, resulting in near zero credit default. Currency risk is hedged via Non-Deliverable Forwards (NDFs). ⏳ Timestamps: (0:00) Introduction(0:51) Who is Jason Dehni?(3:03) What is Black Opal?(6:15) Gemstone vs. LiquidStone II(8:27) User protection & transparency(10:43) What makes Black Opal unique?(13:15) Where are Black Opal's products available?(15:04) Future opportunities in the Digital Asset market(19:35) Tokenization in the near future(23:50) Black Opal roadmap 2026(25:49) Events & conferences(27:08) Black Opal website & socials

Larry Fink makes his most explicit case yet that tokenization is entering its internet-1996 moment, and the rest of Wall Street is suddenly lining up behind him. Today's episode looks at why this shift matters, how macro liquidity and Fed policy are shaping Bitcoin's rebound, and why regulators and major exchanges are treating tokenized assets as the next frontier of financial infrastructure.
