Stellar's European Expansion: Institutional Adoption & RWA Tokenization

[00:00:00]Hello everyone. While we were focused on the United States and rightfully so, it seems as though Stellar is doing huge things in Europe. Consider smashing that like. If I had to earn it, I think I will. And this is going to be one of the biggest deep dives in a while when it comes to specifically Stellar. So, if Stellar is your thing, this is jam-packed with a lot of research, new developments of what Stellar is really, really doing and more in particular, Europe. Let's get into it. First is this. And as you see here, wisdom tree prime encouraging to see continued validation onchain infrastructure for real financial use cases. What matters now is doing it within regulated frameworks that scale. And they point out of course on the 24th Alium. Now I'm fully aware guys that there's quite a few people that are covering this, right? But I'm going to share with you some other key things that have just came out, right? Like Securitize, Redstone, uh, Stellar, obviously with a collaboration with Canton. And I pointed out, whether it's here on Maximus Crypto or on the Coin Vault channel with Robin Rue, that I feel as though that 2026 is the year for privacy coins. And of course, Stellar is collaborating and also doing just that. They're standing out when it comes to privacy. They're bridging, if anything, Ethereum.

[00:01:27]Yeah, Ethereum into the European markets. But how? By making something a lot more fast, efficient, secure, and tokenizing it with key players that you're not even aware of. Take it further into this. I want to point out this. We see here Alium and they point out that they're excited of course to share their latest report with Stellar but Stellar has institutional infrastructure for global settlement and tokenized assets. Yeah, we realize that says a growing number of regulated institutions which include Franklin Templeton, PayPal, Wisdom Tree Funds and Moneygram are already using Stellar for settlement, asset issuance and compliance. They of course have this report but I don't want to share so much just of the report. What I do want to share here is where it says specifically institutional infrastructure for global settlement and tokenized assets again onchain evidence for settlement compliance treasury management. Now when I see treasury management I think to myself okay this makes sense the discovery which we'll get into about like Canton. All right, because we know that Canton stands out when it comes to specifically United States tokenized treasuries, right? And again, as we see here, just in case you need me to zoom in a little bit more, was it mentioned treasury management? Now, there's different forms of treasury management. Don't get me wrong here, but again, these terminologies, they do matter. And as I take you more into this, here's alium. Okay, aliium.so points out the system of record for onchain finance. And right here in front of you, plain as day, you see all the massive integrations. So again, like even for myself, I've covered quite a bit when it comes to quant overlay integration with Stripe. I've covered obviously Hideera, Visa, Stellar, Visa, Ripple, Visa, heck, even Sebec, right?

[00:03:17]Recently, we even have Canton recently.

[00:03:20]There's things like layer zero. But the point is realizing the bigger picture whether it's analytics again these applications and of course the accounting etc etc. So alium what's that all about? Well basically as I pull up more about this I want you guys to see why we get into the nitty-gritty of all this. As it points out there's full coverage for every use case. Not some use cases every use case. They turn raw data from 150 plus blockchains and 1000 plus protocols into standardized auditable data for every team. Okay, you caught my attention and we even have like the Salanas, the Aptos, the Uniswaps, right? So, as I uncovered more about this, I seen constant new updates of course from specifically Stellar and I said to myself, you know, Stellar, they have a lot of new updates day by day by day and it's this whole thing obviously with with Ethereum. Now, hear me out on that because when it comes to Ethereum, it's the stance of Ethereum and of course the European community. And I said to myself, you know what? I've been covering a lot about stellar and of course associate general and of course the forge integration and we know that when it comes to digital euro you have ripple you have quant you have hideera for that digital euro but again there is stellar in that mix not for the euro but for a digital euro stable coin and I think to myself okay there's some things that are unfolding here should we try to get more deeper into this and that's exactly what we're going to do here and why it matters so for one as I pull up more information for you I want you to see that from the digital asset summit of 2026. They point out in this quote, "The reason why blockchain is so useful to financial services is because an open public network is constantly evolving.

[00:05:04]You have people all over the world who are contributing to that network and making it better constantly." I mean, I remember on the live show, nothing against this guy, but he was pointing out, "No, private blockchains are what counts. That's what's going to be the big enchilada." But it really isn't. We we've seen in numerous documentations that even when it comes to things like JP Morgan, right, that public blockchains are the biggest deal moving forward and there's enough evidence in documents to support that. Whether it's from me, whether it's from Smoke, numerous sources have basically put an emphasis on public blockchains. Watch this for a moment as we get into why this is important. You will see here again the lovely Dell Dixon and this person speaking specifically on this topic. and then we'll jump back here in just a bit. Here we go.

[00:05:49]>> In the past, one of the main tools of addressing this for a lot of the banks is simply to build private blockchains, >> right? They will take their own walt garden where they have control of everything and that was seen as a solution to many of these concerns.

[00:06:02]However, again, having dealt with this personally, those don't seem to scale well. What is the mistake of like the specific private approach and how would you think about governance in what we're going to call a public configurable blockchain to address that while also allowing the institutions to work with each other?

[00:06:19]>> Yeah, I think it's so important that we don't actually have these um private instantiations of the private blockchains and here's why. The idea is that the reason why blockchain is so useful to financial services and to the financial industry generally is because an open public network is constantly evolving. You have people all over the world who are contributing to the codebase of that network and making it better constantly. You have in fact the clawback functionality on stellar was was contributed to the stellar network probably about eight years ago, nine years ago by a by a third party. They contributed that saying, "Hey, if you want to deal with financial services companies, you need to be able to have clawback functionality. This is how things improve and get better." And so first of all, you're if when you have a private instantiation of a of or any of these where you're controlling it all, you're also controlling the fact that you're not going to update it and continue to evolve as much as you need to.

[00:07:05]>> If managing your crypto feels like solving a puzzle, it's time to switch to Decent Wallet.

[00:07:12]It's just a few taps. You can manage, track, and secure your crypto with unmatched ease. And here's the best part. Grab your Decent wallet at a discounted price by using the referral link below.

[00:07:28]Don't miss out on making your crypto experience smoother and more secure. So there you go in regard to private and public. Okay, very important to share these type of things. Now the other area I want to jump into basically is this right here officially from Stellar.

[00:07:41]Let's go ahead and pull this up. So what we see here is this and in the process of sharing it like it points out for banks to adopt a blockchain money must move easily without sacrificing privacy and for me this is where we're going to unveil some other key projects and I've shared this before whether it's on the public channel or it was on basically the Patreon but there's things like Redstone and Redstone in themselves I think are the fastest growing oracle out there. Some people say, "No, it's Chain Link." Hey, I'm nothing against chain link, right? Uh we know that chain link is basically the king of oracles. But Redstone, they do kind of stand out. My only issue with them, just to be transparent, is I don't like the tokconomics. There's not enough out there in the circulation for me to justify getting into it right now. But I realize that they're a huge, huge player moving forward. Nonetheless, though, let's get into this piece. And if anything, what's this all about? Well, what we see here is privacy doesn't need closed infrastructure. Again, back to what you just heard in that interview with Denell Dixon. Again, we don't need Sciodos systems, the walled gardens, and so on. We need a fully interoperable world. If you're putting everything to just be privately shared, right, a private blockchain and so on, are you really going to leverage other technologies that are basically out there to complement your infrastructure?

[00:08:58]I know this is not a Quant video, but Quant does just that, do they not? Well, does Stellar also recognize interoperability? Well, of course they do, and they have various different forms of interoperability that are out there. But as we jump back into this, you're going to see how they're doing it across the board with collaborations with some of the biggest in the industry, right? So, as we pull this up, I want you guys to see firsthand at Redstones, DeFi tokenized this. That's what the event was called at the time.

[00:09:27]Tor Weller explained why layer 1 should stay open for builders to create the best privacy solutions. Again, I have pointed this out numerous times and I will not shut up about it. 2026 is the year for privacy projects and this was at ETHC week tokenization of collateral.

[00:09:43]What's all about? Now, please try to remember some of these key words about collateral. I will tie in so many things in this. This is a really big massive stellar update jam-packed with a lot of real interesting news. Not just for the sake of it's interesting, but it's the path forward and for me it leads to liquidity. We're building out the infrastructure. We're expanding the infrastructure. Anyway, listen to this minute and three seconds from Stellar's Tor Weller. Here we go.

[00:10:10]>> If you look at how banks operate, they're effectively in like the AOL model, right? like you have you know everyone operates in the same TCP IP protocol but if you actually want to move money from like one institution to another institution that maybe you know doesn't have like uh you know some counterparty relationship and especially if they're under you know like different countries or whatever like obviously like you know blockchain and stable coin solves this we don't want to go back to having like the type of bank infrastructure there's a reason why blockchain is great we want to utilize that now I'm not disagreeing I think that yeah like you know like privacy is privacy is super important uh you know we're building uh a variety of privacy solutions on stellar to facility, different regulatory requirements, different use cases, different tech.

[00:10:47]Like we're seeing a lot of um you know like we're seeing some uh you know some blockchains enshrining like one specific type of privacy and uh we're we're not into that like we're we're letting the platforms decide what type of privacy they want to enshrine. What we want to do is provide them as much uh as many building blocks as possible for that.

[00:11:06]>> Okay. So you just heard Homer Weller said, "We're not into that." But if anything, they collaborate with the ones who are into that, do they not? As we expand upon this, I want to pull this up on your screen as well. And it's just giving a brief highlight to Redstone.

[00:11:20]Okay? So if you guys are interested in Redstone, uh I just again want to point out some of this. So there there is listings on it, Coin Market Cap, Coin Gecko, etc., etc. Uh the supply does match what's listed on Coin Gecko. So I'll keep it here at coinarketcap.com.

[00:11:34]We see basically speaking there is a total max supply of 1 billion red as in redstone and you have a circulating supply of 338.93 million red. So in reality you only have roughly 34% of the supply out there. To me guys that is just that's not going to do it for me. Again that's not flood.

[00:11:51]That's just being real. Um I want to see preferably a minimum 70% preferably 80% or higher for any token or coin that I get into. But nonetheless, long-term, could this really have some big uh potential? Absolutely. And I will provide you a little bit more as we get further into this outline in regard to it all. So, I just want to point that out. And then also, I want to point out basically speaking that if you were to look more into Redstone, okay, this is what we're going to come across here. So, for one, here's the website redstone.in/clients.

[00:12:24]I won't harp on this too long because I I don't want to deviate from obviously uh Stellar, but this is trusted by over 160 clients. They have a lot of clients, right? Redstone enables secure oracle data delivery for onchain finance.

[00:12:36]Again, they're an oracle, too, right? Uh a lot of people point out obviously the big one, right? The the king of oracles, which is chain link. I did want to point them out, too. So, our clients securely manage 71.8 billion total value locked.

[00:12:48]And look at all the tags they have here in regard to the industries that they're tied into. 191 clients. Now, I don't want to get to all the clients, but I do want to highlight securitize. And here's basically why. Redstone a while back, uh, March 12th of 2025 to be exact, they pointed out how secure ties tokenized real world assets. Well, we know that, right? But you also see here, basically speaking, Redstone connects them to DeFi and onchain finance. Securitize has chosen Redstone as the first and primary blockchain oracle provider for all present and future tokenized products.

[00:13:17]And they do include Black Rockck's Bidd.

[00:13:20]So again, big huge institutional players that are here. You know, I believe in Ono. I think that's going to be a great project long term, but I still currently I'm not wild on the tokconomics, but there is no denying Redstone, for example, and their key connection. So I again, I just really wanted to pound that home uh for you guys can see what I'm talking about here. Also, recently in the news, ladies and gentlemen, I want to point this out as well. We see here basically just six days ago this you know this announcement numerous announcements but on this one you see basically on Reuters how the New York Stock Exchange which will further elaborate in the findings in today's video they team up with secure ties to develop tokenized securities platform and like it says here the New York Stock Exchange part of the intercon continental exchange announced collaboration on Tuesday with digital asset company of course securitize. Now, why is that all important other than what I just shared with you in regard to redstone, etc., etc.? Well, it opens up some other key things. And basically, that's where I want to circle back, of course, to stellar. So, as we do that, let's blow this up again. Lots and updates regard to everything in regard to stellar. So, March 30th, friends are cool, but real world adoption is better.

[00:14:30]From Tor Weller's keynote during what?

[00:14:33]Boom. ETH community event. the largest annual European Ethereum gathering organized by Ethereum France. E CC9 will be held in cans from March 30th, which already basically happened as of yesterday to April 2. So, it is still ongoing. I want you to listen to this though because like you see on the projection board, we are building privacy that doesn't break the chain. There's no single answer and that's okay. The right approach is transparency first and build configurable privacy on top. All the building blocks are in place. So this is Tor Weller again and 32 seconds. We'll come right back. Here we go.

[00:15:10]>> The reality is that at the end of the day, this separation of institution and retail doesn't make sense. You need to make your money useful. Money useful means interacting with institutions. It means your employer being able to pay in crypto. It means you being able to make a purchase in crypto, right? So yes, there is kind of like a limited set of use cases for like peer-to-peer transfers. And if you're like, you know, North Bridge in San Francisco, you want to hang out with your buddies and like, you know, move Zach around for fun.

[00:15:34]Great. I love that. That is not what it options.

[00:15:39]>> So, if you missed it, he specifically mentions like your uh your employer needs to be able to pay you, aka what?

[00:15:46]Pay role. And my thing is this, and I've shared this, of course, over on the coin vault, but again, so many people kind of dismiss things like Zebec, and they don't realize that there really are connected to some of the biggest players on the biggest stages, period. you know, and it's so important that people realize that you know what it's also the smaller ma micro cap gems that are out there basically in a nutshell and uh I I want to share this for for you guys again. So I again I did share this over on the coin vault but we do see here basically speaking whether it's from Zebec stating that Stellar has selected Zbec as his global payroll or I should say global stablecoin payroll infrastructure okay in that stellar ecosystem on March 19th or it's officially recently as you see here from Stellar pointing out that Zbec is building on the network and going live with stable coin payroll. So boom both organizations are highlighting what payroll. So to hear Tor Weller specifically mention basically payroll, right, and mentioning that over in Europe, you know, I did a video not that long ago with the coin vault, right, Robin Rue, and we basically pointed out uh this right here, which I'm about to pull up on your screen, that basically it states that Stellar or excuse me, Zbec is strategically positioned themselves above all in both the United States and where Europe. And to see some of these things regard to specifically the United States in Europe and of course Stellar, it says something, right? There's a whole ecosystem that is at play here.

[00:17:16]I'm going to share with you guys this real quick. And if anything, it's it's a plug to Coin Vault. We have exclusive coverage over on the Coin Vault. So, thank you so much to all you guys been following us over there. I want to point this out. And basically, it's this video right here came out nine days ago. It says, "More and more clarity. Zbec strategically positions itself above all." And we do mention the highlights of both Europe and the United States.

[00:17:38]Check out that video. If anything, I'll give you an endcreen card that will take you right to that channel in that video.

[00:17:43]And if you want to follow us on the Coin Vault, uh we are at CoinVault-I9Y or you just type in coin vault and look for that logo. You should be able to find the channel. As I take you more into this, I also want to point out this specifically, okay? Um this is referred to as X stocks. Now, this is another big announcement, ladies and gentlemen, regard to Stellar and how we're having even Ethereum on that crossover. And I will cite some other key documents that came out not that long ago of why it shouldn't be that big of a deal to realize where we're at right now in the now for Stellar. Okay, so as I pull this up for you, I want you guys to see firsthand a little bit more about why this is such a big big deal. So, for one, ECC, Ethereum Community Conference.

[00:18:26]Okay, again we point this out in regard to the largest annual European Ethereum gathering organized by Ethereum France.

[00:18:32]So again, man, I I cannot pound this home enough, Ethereum France. And what was one of the biggest discoveries that we recently saw, ladies and gentlemen?

[00:18:40]We saw basically forge associate general. And why is that important?

[00:18:44]Again, France. Again, associate general.

[00:18:47]Associate General directly partnered with who? Bunk the France. And again, working on what? trying to get the job done when it comes to the digital euro stable coin with that infrastructure with Stellar. To me, this has all been planned and now it's coming to fruition.

[00:19:02]Of course, we're not at mass adoption yet, but you can appreciate Stellar building the guard rails and the infrastructure for it all. So, jump more into this. I want you guys to see this firsthand that like it says here, happy now on the Monroe stage. Why does the market close? Come find out. Val Wii from Stocks Fi, which is XStocks FI, XT stocks. Um, if you're wondering who they are, pioneering tokenized equities. Over 75 tokenized stocks available on chain and on centralized exchanges. And like it points out here, Stocks Fi, Xtocks, I should say, makes the case for moving beyond trading apps and toward programmable onchain capital markets.

[00:19:42]Again, quant network, programmable liquidity, programmable money. obviously stellar programmable what capital markets programmable real world assets programmable stocks programmable etc etc but more importantly that bridge to things like Ethereum H and of course what you see here don't build trading venues build onchain capital markets all right March 30th that was new now am I going to highlight Xstocks I am if you were to go over to xstocksfi/us you will see specifically Great boom there. Tokenized stocks and ETFs. And more importantly, they have an alliance leading the future of tokenized equities. Kraken, Bybit, Phantom, Salana, Gate.io, and boom, chain link.

[00:20:30]So again, even common ground here because I just shared Redstone, right?

[00:20:34]Radium, Jupiter. So those are like three main salon or four main Salana ones.

[00:20:39]Bigette and wallet investing for everyone. And as I jump further down here, no more waiting delays for trades to clear, right?

[00:20:49]As a pull up more about this availability 24/7. So for stocks to be available 24/7, I mean this is this is the next leg up obviously moving forward. We've been talking about this for years. And for example, freely transferable, yes. No commissions, yes.

[00:21:04]DeFi ready, yes. Again, look at the traditional market. So very, very important to point out some of that. And then on top of that, like I said, setting new standards. And I always find it interesting they call it X stocks because when we talk about obviously like things like Stellar or, you know, Ripple or XDC, the X's, right? So, taking more into this, I want you guys to see firsthand again why I always come back to this. So, just in case you're a brand new uh viewer or listener, which according to my analytics, the majority are, we have this, and I share this numerous times, so I'll just make it brief. So, general forge e convertible now live on stellar. Why is that big?

[00:21:37]retail users and businesses can now access the secure transparent scalable digital euro stable coin on the stellar network and again think about associate general because if anything billing together with your clients and then a lot of focus obviously in Europe and in France again it all kind of comes together does it not all right a little bit more about this here's another thing that Stellar shared just a couple days ago right they point off uh pointed out stellar hot off the press ECC and boom as you see there it mentions what my why privacy matters more than ever in 2026 again uh a lot of my statements they're kind of coming to fruition right and so that that's important right uh the other area I want to jump into is this right here and this ladies and gentlemen is as what was promised from the beginning we we talked about is there something there when it comes to stellar and canton yes there is so now we have numerous examples we have examples of stellar with redstone redstone to securitize securitized to things like Black Rockck, etc., etc., right? But now when we come back full circle again, we're going to talk about the key word I talked about earlier in regard to collateral. And the reason why that's so important is for you guys to understand like it says here from tokenize this, which is the longest running United States conference dedicated to the tokenization of finance, now operated by Redstone. See how that worked out? They point out tokenization of collateral. What is this all about? And on stage, they highlight who? Well, for one, Aureli Delmis, I'm butchering that up, from Canton, Tor Weller from Stellar, and against some of these other people. And again, look at this for a second. Why in the world would you have all these PE or key people from these organizations, whether it's Stellar, whether it's Canton, specifically talking about what tokenization of, collateral, and more importantly privacy, right? So again, they share the stage. What's that all about? Well, when we talk about the whole thing of tokenization of collateral, do we have any examples of some of that? Well, of course, there's numerous examples, but I want to now put a highlight not just so much on collateral, but I want to put a highlight on specifically what ISO 222 being used in collateral. Yes. again because sometimes people forget this or if anything if this is your first time ever experiencing this type of research and content how do we make sense of it with an example that really really matters and more importantly things like BTC right well let's address that because believe it or not it's XDC XTC ladies and gentlemen is the example and as you see here Intel all the way back in 2022 added Bitcoin to ISO 222 financial messaging on XDC network and what's important is to recognize Guys, when moving BTC to XDC network, it is locked on the Bitcoin network by the bridg's nose before the XBTC is minted on the XDC network. The XDC or excuse me, the XBTC can then be used as collateral for what? ISO 222 payments. So even though BTC always kind of stands out because it takes out or it takes up I should say the majority of the overall market, right? BTC and Ethereum still represent 80% of that market, the overall crypto market whether we like it or not. but to see how it could be used in a form of collateral with ISO 222. Are we not paying attention? I think we are. And I've been looking for this clip for a while. Uh, basically hopefully this guy is still around, right? It's utility to the moon. And you know, he shared quite a few videos back in 2022 and 2023, but it still has aged very very well. He pointed out using Impel's official to send ISO 222 compliant message and of course he sent it XDC is collateral. Now again, I know this is more focused on Stellar, but I wanted to give you an example because here's the thing moving forward when it comes to Stellar. What happens when Ethereum wants to use an example of collateral and they want to use Stellar to be that form of a bridge to like things like the stock market, etc., etc. Again, why point that out?

[00:25:31]Because Ethereum is extremely slow, traditional Ethereum. And I understand that they have other scaling solutions and so on. But when you see specifically that Stellar, yes, Stellar with the examples associate general Forge again the digital euro stable coin built on Stellar infrastructure then yeah we're going to use Stellar's infrastructure for that collateral and that is a major major deal. So let's give you an example on this and if anything let's go ahead and play it. Big shout out to Utility of the Moon. I hope to god this guy is still doing coverage because he's appreciated. Here we go.

[00:26:05]>> The initial roll out of the ISO 2222 standard starts tomorrow. So what does that mean? Well, if you want to understand it better, you can go over to impel.global and send your own ISO compliant message just like this. The drop down and then click on our offerings and the link for self-paced ISO 222 demo. You fill out your first name, your last name, your email, and if you represent a bank, they send you this link. You click the link, fill out all this information right here, which we'll skip through. You can attach collateral to the message. I chose XDC as my settlement. Then you can check on the status of your request from the drop down at the top. Here's a list of the demo transactions. Hopefully that's helpful for those of you who hear ISO this, ISO that, and don't know what to make of it. And no, there are no coins that are ISO compliant, but you can enclose digital assets in the financial message. Like and follow for more.

[00:27:02]Yeah, if he's still doing his thing on Tik Tok or wherever he's at, by all means, like and follow him for more. Uh, what we're going to do now is take you over to basically this right here. Going to give you some more examples of Stellar and Ethereum and why it's such a big deal. I know this is quite the deep dive, but that's what I do. So, what I want to do now is I want to share this on the screen. Let's take you over to here. Uh, we see here basically speaking from stellar.org. They point out a while ago, right? Seller Development Foundation nonprofit organization supporting the development and growth of the seller network and announced of course a while back. It had joined the ERC 3643 association. I remember doing an outline about this. As a member, SDF will contribute to the advancement and adoption of the ERC 3643 token standard for compliant asset tokenization. ERC 3643 originally developed by token open-source framework for issuing and managing permission tokens on public blockchains.

[00:27:54]The standard is designed to meet regulatory and compliance requirements for real world assets, making a foundational layer for institutional grade real world tokenization. With this announcement, SDF is deepening its commitment to interoperability, compliance, and real world asset cases on Stellar and beyond. SDF will collaborate with the ERC 3643 association to promote key initiatives.

[00:28:14]And look what it mentions here, ladies and gentlemen. Driving real world asset adoption, open- source contributions, and crosschain interop interoperability.

[00:28:22]And again, did we not share numerous examples about this? We did. And more importantly, between Stellar and Ethereum based standards to broaden the reach of compliant tokenization. Come on, you guys. This is literally happening as we speak. And even Tor Weller is mentioned again. And it says, "Join the ERC 3643 association reflects our belief that open standards, strong compliance frameworks, and interoperability are essential to scaling tokenized real world assets, said Tor Weller." So again, I want to point out some of this because when we get down to the bottom area, Stellar join the ERC 3643 association is a major milestone. It brings the standards trusted compliance framework onto the fast efficient non-EVM Stellar blockchain leveraging the Sorbomb platform. Again, those smart contracts.

[00:29:04]So again, clearly we have this thing going on with Stellar and of course specifically things like Ethereum with ERC 3643. Okay, and that's literally referred to as the T-Rex standard. All right, so where do we expand upon this?

[00:29:19]Well, I'm ahead of you on that. Remember how we mentioned tokeny? I want you guys to see this firsthand for yourself because it is trusted by institutions since 2017. And like it points out from tokeny.com, upgrade to onchain finance, streamline distribution, cut cost, issue, manage, and distribute assets on blockchain while ensuring compliance. 32 billion total value tokenized. 300 or excuse me, 120 plus satisfied customers.

[00:29:42]3 billion blockchain events indexed. All right. Now, that's not it. They are also a pioneer in compliant tokenization.

[00:29:49]Listen to this. Without a standard, we will recreate silos. Again, back to the beginning of the outline. Remember how we just had, just in case you missed it, I I'll share it again. Remember this interview? And what did this guy basically talk about? The wall gardens, the silus. So again, is this not aging?

[00:30:04]Well, I think it really really is. And if anything, let's jump back to this because when you see about this era of tokenization, it points out in 2018, let's full screen this a little bit more. In 2018, they created the open- source ERC 3643 standard to address this issue. Recognized as the sole official ERC20 or not ERC20, excuse me, standard for compliant tokenization audited by hacking, now acknowledged by industry giants as the market standard. Whoa. And and again, right in the middle of that, you're going to see 3643 was created by token. So, don't forget that. And look at all the integrations. Chain link, polygon. Again, those are some big big names. Even with Ledger, right? I'm more of a decent wallet guy, but I do still hold a ledger, right? And as we also see here, those traditional rails. Again, you even have like your wallet and data rails, MetaMask. I mean, MetaMask is basically everything. And like I say, any OTC brokers. So, that helps when it comes to what stock market like we just talked about, any marketplace featured on numerous outlets. And you have expertise forced through tokenization 32 billion across 120 plus successful use cases. and some big names like B&B, parab boss, credit, agricole and numerous other big banks and big names I should say basically here right uh very very important to share some of that I do want to share how this actually works before we move along security tokens are representations of securities issued using a blockchain infrastructure as they are securities the typical securities laws from the issuer and investor jurisdictions apply but the global reach provided by the internet and the blockchain enables global compliance during the issuance and during the life cycle of the financial instruments. So again, why do I want to point out some of this? Well, I want to point it out because basically it's like this. Whether people are fans of Ethereum or not, again, the Wall Street ties, if you have this bridge literally into Wall Street where Ethereum tied to Wall Street can use things like Stellar for that leverage and that collateral with examples that you saw there with the digital euro stable coin. It's a major win moving forward because that means liquidity and it doesn't matter if it's a meme token, doesn't matter if it's utility, you name it. If you have liquidity coming into your space, that is the biggest win of them all. That is way bigger than any type of catalyst.

[00:32:17]Catalyst don't really move the markets like it used to back in 2021. So, jump back into this. I want to pull up more information before we close it out for you guys. And I want to point this out from the block. Again, I told you that this was jam-packed with a lot of information. We see here basically speaking from the block.co ICO Europe's largest asset manager Armundi debuts at a 100 million tokenized fund on Ethereum and boom stellar and how long ago was it Maximus March 19th 2026. These findings are so important for you to realize why you hold Stellar despite all the FUD and people saying oh I'm way down and all this and all that. Are you invested into these projects for 8 10 year hold or longer?

[00:33:02]I say that politely because at the end of the day, some people just want to be in and out of some of these things. You know, there's some channels that basically point out like they're they're paperhanding all this, you know, that you need to uh do what you got to do to again, I guess, paperhand some of this.

[00:33:17]I I did not get involved in all this just to paperhand it, but it is what it is. There's nothing wrong with day trading. I do some day trading, but I do own a separate portfolio. I do not use my nest egg. Quick take of it all. A Monday in Spyo. launched the SpyO, a Monday overnight swap fund on Thursday with 100 million in committed assets under management. But look what it says here. Safo uses Ethereum and Stellar for shareholder register with chain link reporting NAV and crosschain transferability. basically using chain link for the data right and again king of oracles on that one a Monday if you're not word or aware of it Europe's largest asset manager with approximately 2.3 trillion in assets under management has launched a tokenized fund on Ethereum a stellar with 100 million in committed assets I'm telling you flat out I already gave you the examples in regard to what you saw with redstone and of course things like securitize and again the connection to things like black rockck we know that black rockck has over 10 trillion assets under management I believe basically it's up to 14 trillion now. Don't quote me on that. But to see this example that Amundi is Europe's largest asset management with approximately 2.3 trillion, you can totally see where Stellar is doing some big things preparing for what could very well be a massive shift for Europe despite while all of us are focused on the United States. Again, Stellar doing huge things in of course Europe and a little bit more about this because it opens up this and it's basically the Ethereum Alliance, Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, the EA launches privacy working group.

[00:34:48]Again, privacy as it points out here, Ethereum Enterprise Ethereum Alliance moves from experimentation to production. Privacy lies at the center shaping what comes next. I apologize, that's a bad background that they selected there. Uh they should have stuck with black, but it is what it is. While mature privacy technologies exist across the Ethereum ecosystem, institutions lack structured clarity. Again, who's bringing that clarity to things like Ethereum, it is basically your stellars. They need a framework. You don't say to evaluate approaches, understand trade-offs, and determine which models align with regulatory, operational, and fiduciary requirements. The EA privacy working group was established to address this need for clarity. And again, institutional drivers for privacy and Ethereum deployments. And again, I don't think people realize why it's so big to share some of these key things because when you get into the bigger picture of it, guess what? It basically opens up.

[00:35:40]It opens up things like this. Okay? And basically, I found this and it says basically January 20th, 2026, know your contract.

[00:35:50]Now, we know when it comes to Stellar, you have smart contracts with Sorbon.

[00:35:54]And it says here, extending EIDAS trust into public blockchains. I do want to read this real quick. As EIDAS will also become mandatory across EU member states, the proposed architecture provides a pathway for integrating what?

[00:36:06]European digital trust infrastructure into blockchain based systems enabling institutional DeFi participation, real world asset tokenization and enentic commerce with a trusted regulatory compliant framework. Again, Stellar meets all that criteria. That is a massive big deal to share. And more importantly, if you're wondering who EIDAS is, they are the electronic identification authentication and trust services. They are a European Union regulation number 910/204 that enables secure interoperable electronic transactions across European Union borders and ensures legal recognition for e signatures, e- seals, and electronic ID schemes, allowing citizens and businesses to use national electronic identities for public services in other EU countries. Now, I know that's a mouthful, but here's why this is so important. According to kennedyslaw.com, as you see here, the European Digital Identity Framework introduced the new EU digital identity wallet. And the reason why that's important is what's listed right here is because the European Union is replacing a patchwork of national digital identity schemes with a harmonized legal framework under which every member state must or must make at least one EU digital identity wallet. So, if you think about that, if you're going to make a wallet, wouldn't a little bit of that particular wallet require a little bit of a lockup? Call it what you want, but we have shared some of these things.

[00:37:25]Most wallets do require a little bit of a lockup. And even though it's temporary, could we see things that would create a supply shock moving forward? Now, I don't want to get too crazy into the conspiracies because God knows, you guys have seen a lot of my crazy uh videos, right, with those intros and so on. But the bottom line is, could there actually be long-term supply shock? But if anything, maybe around the corner sometime in 2026. It's a big what if. But again, the key plug for Stellar into the Euroan markets. All right, a little bit more about this. The EID wallet is available to their citizens, residents, businesses by the end of 2026. Okay. These mandatory EID wallets will link citizens national digital ID with proof of other personal attributes like drivers licenses, diplomas, professional qualifications, and bank accounts. This mandate is a culmination of a journey that started with regulation EU number 910 2014 which sought to create digital single market in the EU for electronic identification trust services. EIDAS was amended by regulation EU 2024 1183 of the European Parliament and Council back in the 11th of April 2024 and that established a comprehensive European digital ID framework through inserting a new section 1 into chapter 2 of EIDAS.

[00:38:38]The end goal is to allow all European Union citizens to have control over their own identity data and have access to public and private services across EU requiring verification of ID and to participate in a digital economy. We consider first in this article the main features of the new EU digital identity framework and then compares that regime to the UK's emerging digital verification model. That is a major discovery ladies and gentlemen because it tells you again if Stellar I should say if they are is doing this whole thing with associate general through Forge having the digital euro stable coin there's your collateral right we need pairings if you don't believe in pairings look it up yourself go to coin marketcap.com there's pairings those pairings are used as the collateral to basically purchase the underlying asset whether people like USDT or not right USD BT to BTC, USDC to things like Stellar. Again, the collateral, this is massive moving forward. And last but not least, the icing on the cake. Why point out all of this? This right here from the URL citation of stellar.org. We see trusted by leading institutions. Again, not maximus crypto statement providing you the actual documents. The use case stellar is a proven platform for asset issuance. Many well-known institutions select Stellar as their preferred network for real world asset tokenization. And at the top of the list you see Franklin Templeton, you see we obviously know about Ono and Black Rockck but you have Paxos a boom associate general again even the service providers a robust ecosystem regulated financial institutions provide custody services no kidding enable asset issuance and facilitating seamless blockchain integration. We have Zodiac custody boom DTCC which we're going to see a lot more of them in 2026 and you see obviously the Hyperledger and even Copper.co.

[00:40:27]These discoveries are a very very big deal and I thought I would bring it to you because once again while we were focused on the United States and the clarity act etc etc and rightfully so stellar is doing huge things in Europe and especially with Ethereum. So that's an outline. Do me a solid if you happen to listen to the entire outline and simply type in this key word into the comments and that is Europe because apparently Stellar they are doing big things in Europe and they don't get a lot of attention or enough attention compared to like your ripples and some of the other ones that many people cover. Stellar is my number two on my top five for a reason and they have consistently been that for a few years now. So, a very very long-term hold. I'm not looking to paperhand it.

[00:41:20]That's an outline for you all. I hope you appreciate the coverage of Maximus Crypto here. I've been covering blockchain and DT since late 2021. And I've been personally invested into crypto as in BTC 2016, but I got into altcoins because I was bit by the crypto bug in 2021 when I turned 10K into 120K.

[00:41:41]didn't make me rich, but if anything, it shared or it taught me that there is hope. Some of you guys don't like the idea of hope, but for me, some people call it hope. You can call it whatever you want. It's the whole idea that there's better days ahead if we choose to actually hold on to some of these things long term. I can't give you any financial advice whatsoever. I never will. But my main thing is I used to be a school teacher. School teachers don't make a lot of money. And with crypto, it turned my life around completely. I couldn't stop talking about some of this stuff and I had to dig deeper. I had to learn more about real utility. And here I am. Check out the coin vault. I really would appreciate if you did. You get unique perspectives from myself, Rob, and Ru, all three of us over there. I won't keep you guys any bit further. May the Lord Jesus bless you all. I truly mean that. I really rooting for your success. There's going to be a lot of people. They're going to get flooded out with a lot of misinformation there is out there. Some people say that I'm part of that misinformation. God bless them.

[00:42:42]I pray for even those type of people.

[00:42:45]I'll see you guys in the next video.

[00:42:48]Over and out. Byebye.
