We’re proud to provide the secure custody and tokenization infrastructure behind #EURAU, the first fully reserved, #MiCAR-compliant euro stablecoin officially launched by AllUnity – a joint venture between DWS Group, Flow Traders, and Galaxy. At the core of this launch are GK8’s #Impenetrable Vault for secure digital asset #custody and our #Tokenization Wizard, the engine powering the issuance of EURAU. Designed for scale, compliance, and operational resilience, our infrastructure enables AllUnity to offer a euro stablecoin ready for institutional, corporate, and enterprise adoption from day one.

Her key points: 🇺🇸 The US has shifted from a slow-mover to a front-runner with a growth-first approach to crypto and stablecoins. 🇪🇺 Europe risks becoming an “innovation flyover zone” unless regulators accelerate tokenization and create stronger supervisory frameworks. 💡 Stablecoins and tokenization are becoming the rails for the next generation of finance, but success depends on interoperability, compliance, and resilience. At Fireblocks, we are working with institutions and policymakers to build the trusted infrastructure needed to power secure and scalable adoption.

Redbelly Network x Optima Financial: Bringing Tokenized Investment Strategies to Europe We’re excited to announce a strategic partnership between Redbelly Network and Optima Financial, the first EU-regulated, tokenized asset manager available to retail investors. Together, we’re making professional-grade investment strategies accessible to everyone, not just the top 1%. Through this collaboration, Optima will leverage Redbelly’s verified identity layer for onboarding, ensuring a low-friction KYC process that connects users with regulated investment products. The initial focus is on Europe’s retail investors, a market underserved by traditional asset managers and crypto platforms alike. Optima offers both passive and active strategies, backed first by crypto and later by real-world assets (stocks, bonds, ETFs). These are delivered via the Optima app as Optima Strategy Tokens on-chain. Redbelly users will soon be able to access these strategies directly in the app as of Sept 2025 and later on-chain via 3A DAO (Q4 2025), with RWA strategies following in 2026. To further deepen integration, Optima will create a staking smart contract on Redbelly where users can deposit Strategy Tokens to earn $RBNT rewards driving on-chain TVL for Redbelly and AUM growth for Optima. This partnership brings a European-first approach to democratizing investment access, showing how tokenized assets can empower retail investors across the region.

☄️ Tokenization is entering a new phase… Blockstories recently featured an interview with Daniel Coheur, Co-founder of Tokeny, an Apex Group company and our Global Head of Digital Assets, to discuss the launch of Apex Digital 3.0 and the future of fund tokenization. Across the industry, the foundations are finally aligning to make tokenization mainstream: 💫 Infrastructure is maturing. 💫 Regulators are more engaged. 💫 And service providers can handle digital assets at scale. This evolution is what drove our acquisition of Tokeny - bringing together Tokeny’s years of technical innovation with our global servicing footprint. The result is Apex Digital 3.0, a platform designed to support the full lifecycle of tokenized products, from issuance and administration to custody and connectivity with the broader digital ecosystem. As Daniel concluded, “We think we’re close to a tipping point. As infrastructure matures and both assets and investor bases scale, tokenization will stop being something new. It will simply become the way markets operate.” 🔖 Read full insights from Daniel on why large-scale tokenization is now viable, and how we’re helping managers reach more investors and lowering barriers to entry: https://okt.to/50xbUW #Tokeny #ApexGroup #Tokenization #DigitalAssets #ApexDigital #Blockstories #Innovation #WeAreApexGroup
