After more than two years of building with the same team, through industry shifts and multiple evolutions, from @ionprotocol to @nucleusearn, I’m proud to share that we’ve now entered our next chapter post-acquisition as part of @paxoslabs!

Now our mission is clear: bring institutional-grade infrastructure to market and make blockchain rails accessible to enterprises. Backed by @Paxos's proven track record, we’re now positioned to help institutions tap into DeFi markets and unlock new onchain financial experiences for their users.

It’s been an incredible journey to help shape this vision from the early days, and I’m excited for what’s ahead as we continue building the foundation for the future of onchain finance.

[Paxos Labs @paxoslabs]

We had a rollout plan. The market had other ideas.

Sometimes opportunities show up when least expected, but we pulled out the stops, executed fast, and showed what we can bring to the table.

But we realized that we didn’t get the chance to introduce ourselves. Paxos Labs is the enterprise-grade infrastructure platform powering the next era of onchain finance.

Financial platforms across the world are constrained by legacy financial rails systems that are costly, slow, and limited in scope. As these platforms look to upgrade their underlying infrastructure, they can turn to Paxos Labs to guide them in their blockchain journey, from stablecoins to full onchain market access.

Backed by @Paxos's $120B+ track record in tokenization and regulatory expertise and trusted by enterprises like PayPal, Venmo, Mastercard, Nubank, Interactive Brokers, and more we extend proven infrastructure into a full product suite that unlocks utility, yield, and liquidity for platforms and their users.

With Paxos Labs, enterprises can take the step beyond stablecoin issuance and acceptance to deliver full onchain financial experiences for their users from branded stablecoin creation, to servicing yield on stablecoins, integrating compliant money markets, and more.

Our mission for enterprises is to enable them to own more of their economics, facilitate growth through innovation, and future-proof their business by delivering safe and utility-driven onchain experiences to their end-users.

Building the rails you can rely on, and the products that make them matter.

Paxos Labs is where the future of onchain finance is built, customized, and scaled.

Start your onchain journey with Paxos Labs.

Introducing Aviya - Institutional Credit on Hyperliquid.

Aviya is a private, compliance gated credit venue built on Hyperliquid, designed to extend structured credit access to institutional participants.

The platform facilitates bilateral, fixed-rate financing, initially against HYPE collateral, with a roadmap to expand into additional asset classes over time.

As capital allocators increasingly engage with on-chain markets, access to predictable, structured credit becomes a requirement. Aviya is designed to meet this demand by offering a more controlled alternative to fully permissionless lending systems, while still leveraging the efficiency and settlement advantages of Hyperliquid’s infrastructure.

We view Aviya as a core component in the development of HyperLend as the credit layer of the Hyperliquid ecosystem, enabling capital formation, leverage, and structured financing across both native and future tokenized assets such as equities, commodities, fixed-income instruments and even the likes tokenised pre-IPO companies.

Over time, Aviya will serve as a gateway for institutional credit into emerging on-chain markets, including real-world and tokenized financial assets.

We are also pleased to deepen our collaboration with @HyperionDeFi, working together on institutional business development and capital formation.

Aviya represents a continued step toward integrating credit natively into the broader Hyperliquid financial system.

gLend.

Excited to share that I've joined @PaxosLabs as Head of DeFi.

I believe the value of DeFi's rooted in access to new counterparties, assets, & rails.

Paxos Labs is where that access is enabled.

If that's the future you're building toward too, I'd love to connect.

DMs open :)

Every major fintech company, neobank, and exchange has begun to support crypto or has already done so.

The harder question every product team is now facing is: What now?
