🚨Big news in the RWA ecosystem!
Congrats to @Figure on launching the new RWA Consortium, bringing together leading Solana and crypto partners to expand institutional-grade, onchain credit markets for DeFi users.
Today, we’re announcing the RWA Consortium, led by Figure and key crypto partners, to bring real-world yield to @Solana.
We’re setting a new standard for cross-chain RWA collaboration.
This marks the first time Figure’s $1B+/month in on-chain loan originations becomes accessible to everyday DeFi users on Solana.
Figure is bringing $YLDS to @solana, further continuing our broader push to bring real-world assets to DeFi.
$YLDS—a registered public debt security��will mint natively on Solana, making continuous yield backed by U.S. Treasuries available to Solana ecosystem partners.
Our CMO (@therealmiso2049) is live on Chain Reactions w/ @myosin_xyz 🎙
Talking through digitizing finance, democratizing access to onchain capital, and more 👇
Big news: $YLDS is coming to Solana 🚨
We are proud to be working with @Figure to bring access to their RWA yield products to the entire Solana ecosystem, with Provenance remaining as the backbone for Figure's assets.
We’re starting with their securitized stablecoin: $YLDS.
Together, we’re delivering compliant, real-world assets that move at the speed of DeFi.
@Figure released earnings after the close. Net income for the quarter is up 227% year over year to $90 million. Adjusted net revenue for the quarter of $156 million with an EBITDA margin at 55%.
Figure is killing it. But what I am most excited about is this: https://t.co/T9fPLAvxgj
Figure is doing a second IPO - a non-dilutive secondary of true blockchain native public equity on @provenancefdn. Not a tokenized DTCC stock. The real deal. Can't wait to talk more about this.
Another step forward for DeFi. We’re teaming up with @SuiNetwork to bring the first SEC-registered stablecoin, YLDS, natively to Sui.
As part of this, @DeepBookonSui's new margin system will integrate YLDS to transform idle USDC into yield-bearing assets.
Yield shouldn't stop at one chain.
YLDS, built on Provenance, is now issued natively on @SuiNetwork.
More access. More utility. More liquidity, bringing us one step closer to a world where real-world assets move freely for everyone.
The future is interoperable 🔗
Excited to be minting $YLDS on @SuiNetwork! This is the beginning of moving @Figure assets to other L1s to support DeFi, fiat rails and more while continuing to leverage @provenancefdn - in this case as the TA ledger for the security. More to come!

A Q3 Report from InvestaX shows that Provenance Blockchain is the leading chain in tokenized real world asset value, with dominance in the largest onchain market → private credit.
Our rails aren’t being built, they are already trusted and enterprise-grade.

Figure just went public and wants to modernize Wall Street.
I sat down with founder @mcagney to discuss how they are disrupting legacy finance infrastructure, where crypto is most disruptive to banks, how DeFi will gain mainstream adoption, what his thoughts on bitcoin are, and the current stablecoin landscape.

Enjoy!

I am late in posting this but still wanted throw a huge shoutout to my friend and maverick entrepreneur @mcagney on his 2nd bumper Fintech IPO through @Figure !! Me and @jump_ were lucky to ride this wave with him, @juneou , Michael Tannenbaum and rest of @Figure team. Mike is a man of unlimited ideas and he somehow manages to see through many of them - look forward to keep working with him to re-build traditional finance rails through blockchain infrastructure.
@crypto_notte@mcagney@Figure@coingecko@DefiLlama@provenancefdn They are just trying to maintain the integrity of their platform. Coming in with 12b+ of assets growing 1b+ a month is a bit hard to believe when the rest of defi starts with a small fraction of that.
Now tracking @provenancefdn
Provenance is a Cosmos-based proof-of-stake blockchain designed for financial services, enabling tokenization, lending, and real-world asset management through permissioned smart contracts and IBC-enabled interoperability
Cool seeing institutions lean in to deploy cash reserves in DeFi. Solutions like @FigureMarkets Democratized Prime - are going to be necessary to support capital markets as the GENIUS act-fueled bank liability (deposit) flight takes hold. https://t.co/MiSzajU8Lq
