A meaningful step.

[Brickken @Brickken]

Washington just moved tokenized markets one step closer to regulatory legitimacy.

The CLARITY Act has cleared the Senate Banking Committee in a 15–9 vote, advancing one of the most consequential digital asset market structure bills in the United States to date.

The bill now heads to the Senate floor, where the conversation shifts from policy discussion to potential implementation.

For tokenization, the signal is significant: the U.S. is moving toward a more defined regulatory framework for digital assets, including clearer jurisdictional boundaries between the SEC and CFTC.

If enacted, the CLARITY Act would influence how institutions approach tokenized financial instruments, digital asset infrastructure, and compliant participation in emerging capital markets.

Tokenization will not scale through regulation alone.
It will scale through regulated infrastructure.

[Brickken @Brickken]

Tokenization doesn’t scale because of technology alone.

It scales when infrastructure meets institutional requirements.

We've achieved ISO 27001:2022 certification with integrated DORA compliance verification.

This is not a technical milestone.
It’s a structural one.

This marks a shift toward infrastructure that meets international security and compliance standards, enabling faster access to institutional clients, accelerating deal execution by removing lengthy due diligence processes, and reinforcing Brickken as independently verified infrastructure built for institutional trust and scale.

ISO reflects operational maturity.
DORA ensures regulatory alignment.

Together, they define what infrastructure needs to operate in real financial markets.

Tokenization is no longer about proving the concept.
It’s about deploying it in regulated environments.

This is what infrastructure looks like.

[Brickken @Brickken]

Brickken has closed a €3M Pre-Series A round at a €38M valuation.

The round brings in strategic partners from across Europe, investors with deep expertise in digital transformation and financial infrastructure at an institutional scale.

They came in on the back of a year defined by execution:
• 150+ clients onboarded across 30 countries
• $500M+ in assets tokenized
• Client base and revenue doubled

Institutional tokenization is a long game. The past year was about proving we could play it.

This round wasn't planned, it was earned. As institutional traction built, strategic investors came forward ahead of our Series A. We brought in partners whose expertise and networks accelerate what we're already executing on.

The capital has a clear mandate: establish The Brickken Group as our international holding structure, build out our regulatory capabilities across key markets and financial hubs, including MiCA in the EU and VARA in the UAE, expanding the infrastructure capabilities that enable us to serve institutional clients worldwide.

As major institutions move from exploration to deployment, tokenization infrastructure layer for capital markets has become essential, and that is exactly what we provide.

"This financing marks a deliberate step toward institutional scale. We are investing heavily in regulatory readiness and operational depth to support asset managers, issuers, and financial institutions as on-chain finance becomes a core component of capital markets." Edwin Mata, CEO of Brickken.

Series A is ahead. The foundation is in place.

@solidintel_x Hey @grok what does this post mean?

[Enmanuel @Manu7262]

X is positioning itself to wipeout PayPal with its payments rollout, closing the loop on Musk's original vision of https://t.co/zfYKwm2jPh

The vision of having one integrated app is long overdue in the west, already Asia and Eastern Europe have similar solutions.

I don’t think people truly understand what’s about to happen with 𝕏 Money.

This is Elon going back to his roots - back to https://t.co/xPHLRiKvNk - and building what he always wanted in the first place: one place that runs your entire financial life.

When he rebranded Twitter to 𝕏 in 2023, he said straight up that we’re adding the ability to conduct your entire financial world. He even said you may not even need a traditional bank account.

Most people brushed that off. And now it’s becoming real.

𝕏 Money has already been live in closed beta internally within the company. A limited external beta is expected soon, and they’ve already secured money transmitter licenses in over 40 states plus DC. 𝕏 Payments is registered with FinCEN. Visa is officially partnered. You’ll be able to fund your wallet instantly, send peer-to-peer payments, move money to your bank, and eventually use a debit card.

And I think this is just the beginning.

This will probably start as a simple wallet where you can send money as easily as sending a DM. With this technology, you can pay creators, pay subscriptions, pay whatever bills, shop inside the app, get paid inside the app, and much more.

Then, there will be high-yield savings, you can invest, you can get loans, have money market accounts, maybe even treasury access, cool smart cashtags that let you see live stock prices in your timeline and execute trades seamlessly, crypto integration, potentially full asset management… the list goes on and on… Elon literally said this is meant to be the central source of ALL monetary transactions.

Bro… think about that for a sec.

Your 𝕏 profile becomes your financial identity.

Everyone you follow is already there. Everyone you interact with is already there. That social graph becomes your distribution engine. Like, you won’t need a separate banking app, no need for a separate investing app, no need for a separate payment app… this all lives where you already spend your time. Right here on 𝕏.

Look at WeChat in China, which Elon always alluded to. Payments, messaging, shopping, investing - all integrated in one app. It handles $ trillions in volume and became deeply embedded in everyone’s daily life. Now 𝕏 is building the Western version of that, but with a more global reach, and xAI’s AI layered on top of all this.

Before you call me crazy, you have to understand how big this opportunity is.

Digital payments globally are measured in the tens of $ trillions of dollars annually. Even just capturing a small slice of that across hundreds of millions, and eventually a billion, users can change everything. 𝕏 already has the audience. That lowers customer acquisition costs significantly. Add fintech revenue on top of ads, plus float, plus lending, plus investing tools, and we’re talking about a completely different valuation profile.

Now, $44B for this company looks like the bargain of the decade… this was one of the main reasons I invested in 𝕏.

And if they execute the way they’ve executed at Tesla and SpaceX, this could truly fundamentally redefine how people handle $ .

Most people today still see 𝕏 as just a social media app. I see it as the foundation of a financial system layered on top of a global network. Ultimately becoming the “everything” app.

And this I believe is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.

Elon is calling this a game-changer.

I believe him.

Here's my first-ever AI film contest entry: Express Lane.

I'm not usually an action movie guy, love slower paced stories with deep character development, crazy timelines, and emotional buildup. So I tried to squeeze all that into under 3 minutes. #higgsfieldaction

If you like psychological tension, and a little fantasy, give it a watch.

Bringing this recap video to life was a fun experience.

I combined real photos captured by our team in @consensus2026 & used @higgsfield_ai to create this cinematic storyline, capturing the essence of our team's work on the ground those days.

2026 is just getting started.

🇭🇰 Consensus Hong Kong 2026: The Shift to Institutional Execution

Last week in Hong Kong, one theme dominated every conversation: The RWA market has moved from experimentation to infrastructure.

At @consensus_hk , Brickken:
• Presented at @CoinDesk PitchFest
• Spoke at the @rwasummit
• Secured media coverage with @RoxomTV , @bitpinas , @TheAsianBanker , and @TimesCrypto
• Sponsored curated institutional events alongside @tbvxyz
• Met with funds, issuers, and financial institutions actively deploying capital

The most important takeaway?
Demand is no longer driven by narratives. It is driven by compliance, liquidity design, and settlement architecture.

Asia is positioning itself as a proving ground for regulated digital asset markets.
• Infrastructure is ready.
• Regulatory clarity is improving.
• Capital is aligning.

The next phase of tokenized finance will be defined by execution.

And we are building for scale.
