Repo markets move trillions daily and they’re prime for tokenization.

I was pleased to contribute to the @DFSA’s new report, Scaling Tokenization: The Road Ahead, alongside leaders from @BlackRock, @StanChart, and @RobinhoodApp.

The real shift isn’t just tokenized treasuries and MMFs gaining AUM, it’s their onchain utility as collateral in repo and margin without needing to redeem to cash first. We expect massive growth here over the next 12 months and a significant proportion of that will be on the XRPL.

With clear frameworks, institutional custody, and trusted settlement assets like RLUSD, the UAE and @DIFC and @Ripple are positioned at the forefront of this next phase.

What an incredible week at the @DubaiFinTechSum!

A busy couple of days marked by immense interest and strong engagement around @Ripple’s offerings across the region. We remain deeply committed to scaling our footprint in the Middle East out of our @DIFC hub.

It was also an honor to welcome His Highness Sheik Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, the Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline, to our booth, alongside DIFC Governor, His Excellency. Essa Kazim and DIFC CEO His Excellency Arif Amiri.

Exciting times ahead for the future of finance in the region 🇦🇪🚀

Fantastic panel at @DubaiFinTechSum diving into how digital assets scale from here.

The consensus was clear: the question is no longer if institutional adoption happens, but what infrastructure needs to change to support it.

A few takeaways from our discussion with @BlackRock, @StanChart & @RobinhoodCrypto

➡️ The 24/7 reality: The next generation requires always-on rails. Markets with "opening hours" simply won't cut it.

➡️ Bridging TradFi & DeFi: Scaling tokenized markets requires real bank-grade infrastructure, custody, and risk management.

At @Ripple, we see every day how enterprise rails, tokenization, and stablecoins bridge this gap 🇦🇪
