Super excited to build with @crossriverbank !
We’re partnering with @crossriverbank to integrate tokenization directly into its lending platform.

Glamsterdam upgrade went live on Ethereum Sepolia yesterday.
@Arbitrum Sepolia, @RobinhoodCrypto Testnet, & the @prylabs consensus client continued operating flawlessly despite major protocol changes.
Huge credit to @Offchain engineers for making a complex upgrade look routine.

I don't "expect" this to happen. It is already happening.
NEW: Morgan Stanley says Wall Street could capture much of the value from crypto’s growth as blockchain technology moves deeper into traditional finance.
The bank expects digital assets to become part of the existing financial system rather than replace it.

We will look back on today as an historic day in the growth of @arbitrum. Much of the growth that we are looking to do across yield, savings and trading has been predicated on the launch of this partnership. Really excited to work with @Paxos and all our partners

.@Offchain is excited to participate in this @BlockchainAssn Vaults Workstream!
1/ Blockchain Association recently launched its Vaults Workstream, and we’re proud to be joined by dozens of leading member organizations helping shape policy discussions in Washington.
This level of engagement reflects the growing importance of vaults and related onchain technologies.

At a high level, basically extends the No Action letter that @phantom received earlier this year (w/requirements) more broadly to software builders generally. THANK YOU @CFTC @MichaelSelig

Good to see the SEC move on this. A real, workable path for tokenized securities is a big step for global onchain markets.
Arbitrum just crossed 5,000 tokenized RWAs, so the infrastructure is more than ready to meet the moment in America and abroad.
This will change how the market deals with tokenized securities. More to come. This is also another extremely clear signal that the @SECGov and @CFTC will aggressively pursue rules in the absence of CLARITY.
