Looking forward to working with the team at MetaPlex. There are many hurdles still to jump over with regards to properly tokenizing securities but were solving them one by one. The MPL-3643 token solves many issues for us.

Excited to be supporting @fairdotclub's mission to unlock secondaries for private startups on Solana This is just the beginning for permissioned RWAs powered by MPL-3643
Metaplex and FairClub are partnering to unlock private startup markets on Solana. Powered by MPL-3643, the standard for bringing permissioned RWAs and tokenized securities onchain.

Tokenize the long tail
The most interesting opp in RWAs is tokenizing assets that would benefit from better distribution or enhanced utility - private fund interests - venture - private credit - intl equities - hard assets - sports franchises Tokenize the long tail with Metaplex

You are sheepishly staying home from London during the bear market We are sending an army of elite operators to hunt customers, hire talent, and spread the vision of Metaplex 3.0 We are not the same

The long tail is the most attractive segment of RWAs Anyone who has spent time in that space in tradfi knows that’s where spreads are widest, fees per asset are highest, and the markets are incredibly inefficient This is our #1 RWA bet @metaplex See you in London

Tokenized RWAs: ~$40B today. Morgan Stanley expects $2.3T by 2030. That's 50x+ growth, and most of those markets come with rules. MPL-3643 from @metaplex is built for issuer-sponsored tokenization: permissioned by design, with Solana's speed and composability. Trillions. 🧵👇

The opportunity of onchain RWAs is way bigger than just tokenized public stocks. Private equity, funds, commodities and more are being unlocked to come to Solana
Korea is laying the groundwork for a new era of tokenized finance. The opportunity extends far beyond public markets, unlocking private equity, capital formation & global access. The next generation of financial markets is moving onchain. MPL-3643 was built to unlock it.

“You can think of it effectively as a compliance layer for any type of RWA or tokenized security on Solana.” - @DegenMack MPL-3643 gives issuers tools to meet compliance requirements and bring new markets onchain, preserving Solana's composability. Permissioned. Not siloed.

RWAs are growing onchain, but big markets need compliance built in. MPL-3643 from @metaplex lets permissioned assets be issued natively on Solana, not wrapped. Transfer restrictions and lockups live in the asset itself. Now in limited-access alpha 👇

Been testing out the early version of Vantage It's hands down the best platform for building Solana-backed intelligence dashboards If you want early access shoot me a DM!

Morgan Stanley sees tokenized RWAs passing $2T by 2030. Many of these markets need compliance infra for issuer-sponsored tokenization. MPL-3643 pairs permissioned design with Solana's speed and composability, positioning Solana to capture the next wave of markets. Trillions.

most rwas are wrapped. you hold a token, someone else holds the asset. mpl-3643 flips that: real assets, native on solana, rules built in. meteora is an official integration partner. anyone can create pools for mpl-3643 assets on meteora. what will you build with @metaplex?
Most RWAs today are wrapped assets. MPL-3643 changes that. Built-in compliance, issuer controls, and DeFi composability enable tokenized securities and RWAs to be issued directly on Solana. The next generation of onchain markets starts at the token layer.

Metaplex has been on fire the last 60 days TLDR: - new RWA products - new trading products - geographic expansion in Korea And we're not slowing down. Q3 was the warm-up Metaplex mode
