Wall Street is no longer waiting for the future of finance. It’s already happening on @StellarOrg. Janus Henderson and @centrifuge just launched the first-ever licensed, tokenized fund tracking @Nasdaq’s Nasdaq-100 Index…exclusively on the Stellar Network. Issuance is just the beginning. The real opportunity is putting these assets to work. @WSJ👇 wsj.com/finance/investing/ja…

Where do digital assets sit in an alternatives portfolio? The answer depends on the mandate, the vehicle and the risk budget.

At the @USOCC, we have worked diligently and expeditiously to deliver the GENIUS Act final rule ahead of schedule to support President Trump's vision and @SecScottBessent's leadership to grow the economy and lead the global digital currency revolution. Today marks the birth of a new industry having a federal framework for payment stablecoins in the digital age. It also brings us back to our original mission when the OCC was charged with the responsibility for organizing and administering a system of nationally chartered banks and a uniform national currency.

Matteo Dante Perruccio, Chief Strategy Officer at 3iQ, will speak at @SALTConference London on November 3 at 9:45 AM. He will join the panel "The Macro Case for Digital Assets" alongside Bob Diamond (Hyperliquid Strategies), Miller Whitehouse-Levine (Solana Policy Institute), and Geoff Kendrick (Standard Chartered). The U.S. Treasury's announced bond buyback program has renewed attention on the macro case for including digital assets in portfolios. As GENIUS Act implementation continues, stablecoin growth has also accelerated, with Wall Street banks forming new digital dollar consortiums. Blockchain infrastructure has continued to mature, with Hyperliquid leading the charge toward the U.S. launch of perpetual futures. In this session, panelists who traversed from senior traditional finance roles into leading voices in digital finance will weigh in on the macro case for including digital assets in institutional investor portfolios.

The inflation print was ugly, rates are backing up, oil’s near $100, and the S&P still refuses to roll over, so Mike Novogratz (@novogratz) and I dig into whether this market is bulletproof or just one bad headline from its first real correction. We also get into the Fed’s next hike, what an AI catastrophe would do to the NASDAQ, where Bitcoin goes from here, and why Texas Republicans are calling the Talarico race existential. All this and more on this week's episode of All Things Markets (@AllThingsMkts) presented by @SALTConference Watch/Listen on X, YouTube, and Spotify.
