ZIG Finance and @worldlibertyfi are partnering to put ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d to work across real-world investment opportunities.
ZIG Markets will originate, structure and distribute the opportunities, with ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d serving as the settlement and treasury layer across the program.
The first deployment is already live through our PayFi Vault on Concrete, financing short-duration cross-border payment and remittance flows.
But PayFi is the starting point. The broader objective is to build a shelf where ethereum:0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d can move from stablecoin liquidity into real economic activity and back again.
Onchain credit is growing. But is access to financing growing with it?
AFME’s latest DLT Capital Market Report puts the tokenized alternative fund market at $14.3bn as of 30 September, up from $11bn in 2025. Credit makes up ~$8bn of it.
Businesses can have customers and receivables while struggling to secure financing. As our co-founder @ARafayGadit writes in his recent article on the next phase of onchain lending: “What is often missing is an efficient way for global capital to understand, price and finance those exposures.”
Connecting those businesses with investors takes credit assessment, structuring and distribution. That’s the work we bring together through ZIG Markets.
The opportunity is turning that scale into wider access: more investors able to participate and more businesses able to reach capital they can put to work.

Great usecase and adoption of tokenized yeild powered by @ZIGFinance. This is how embedded finance eventually works, and we are fully tuned for it.
Excited to be working with @GroveXchange on this initiative, providing yeild on USDT to its customers

We’re making real-world yield accessible to investors of every size, through the channels they already use, without the complexity.
Finance has a new address.

This is why @ZIGFinance matters. The people helping drive the world’s growth should have a fair opportunity to invest in it.
Some of the world’s largest companies have built their businesses around global participation. We should be asking why participation in their upside remains so uneven.
These companies shape how we communicate, work and build businesses. People across emerging markets buy their products, pay their subscriptions and build entire businesses around their technology. Governments spend taxpayers’ money on their infrastructure and services.
Over decades, that spending supports revenues, profits, dividends and shareholder wealth.
A business owner can pay for the software powering a global company’s growth every month and still face considerable friction trying to invest in its success.
Why should we accept that gap as permanent?
I come from banking and have benefited from the relationships and access this system rewards. That experience makes me more conscious of how differently it treats someone without those advantages.
Investors should be able to decide what exposure they want, how they want to invest and which provider they trust. Different people will choose different products and structures based on their circumstances.
Brokers, fund managers and platforms have built entire businesses around providing access to markets. Tokenization creates more ways to serve that demand. Let businesses compete on access, cost, convenience and transparency, and let investors choose.
Of course the money must be lawful, investors must meet the applicable requirements and people must understand what they are buying. Those protections should support a market where informed choices are possible.
Tokenization can bring more participants and capital into markets, create additional sources of liquidity and support price discovery across venues. It can make investment products easier to distribute and transactions easier to inspect.
Companies should scrutinise how their shares are represented and raise specific concerns. We should also scrutinise restrictions that prevent eligible investors from choosing how to participate.
This is why ZIG Finance matters to me. We are working to connect real financial opportunities with people who have been poorly served by existing channels.
Wall Street is saying “NO” to MASS TOKENIZATION
26 companies worth ~$13.9 TRILLION have objected to tokenized versions of their shares trading on OKXICE.
The full list:

3. Broadcom $AVGO: $1.6T
4. Intel $INTC: $540B
5. Cisco $CSCO: $433B

26. Applied Digital $APLD: $6B
The count has nearly TRIPLED from 9 objectors just 10 days ago.
If TOKENIZATION is such a win, why the pushback?
The rails change. Your position doesn’t.
A quick note for Nawa USDC Vault depositors.
USDC is transitioning from Noble to Injective. Nawa’s Vault will be updated to reflect this change, and no action is required from our users.
Positions & yield will remain unaffected. Users will be receiving USDC on Injective during the next redemption period.
Connecting investment opportunities with capital takes origination, curation and distribution working together.

ZIG Chain EVM is coming with the v6 upgrade. It’s part of ZIG Chain, not Ethereum.
We’re working with partners to get the supporting integrations ready. Your existing address and funds stay as they are. There’s nothing you need to do.
🚨 BREAKING!!
“ZIGChain is going EVM compatible” - @brbordallo
A major step towards institutional credibility, broader distribution & deeper onchain liquidity.
Adoption is accelerating. That doesn’t mean every token benefits from it.
@ARafayGadit on the standard we’re holding $ZIG to:
Months of conversations with institutions have reinforced my conviction in crypto adoption. I think it will look different from what many token holders expect.
My thoughts on what comes next, and the business we’re building around $ZIG.
Validators have voted, with 98% of votes in favour, to permanently remove 675,000 $ZIG from circulation, representing half of $ZIG acquired in October.
The tokens move to ZIG Chain’s public retirement wallet and leave circulating supply.

For us, wider access means more businesses getting funded and more people getting a way to invest in them.
Making existing loans usable as collateral could help lenders finance the next business.
As our co-founder @ARafayGadit puts it: “Tokenization creates access. Collateralization creates capital efficiency.”
Every onchain product needs capital to become a market.
ZIG Chain provides the infrastructure. ZIG Markets earns where capital reaches it, from origination, structuring and distribution.
A portion of that revenue can fund open-market $ZIG acquisitions, linking activity to our token.
ZIG Markets’ curated vaults are reaching beyond a single ecosystem.
With @Valdora_finance now multichain, investors using supported EVM wallets can access the strategies we already curate on the platform.

$44 trillion crosses borders every year. Only 0.31% settles onchain.
To pay out in minutes, money transfer operators pre-fund cash in the destination country. That capital comes mostly from banks and their own balance sheets.
ZIG Markets connects onchain capital to that need. It funds a payout, is repaid at settlement, then funds the next.
We're already doing this with @ConcreteXYZ's USD1 RWA Vault.
Onchain markets don't stop at borders.

The CLARITY Act stalled in the Senate on 15 September. A month later, capital markets are still moving onchain.
The SEC’s comment window on Regulation Crypto Assets closed yesterday. DTCC also plans to launch its tokenization service this month, following successful live transactions in July.
Congress hasn’t settled the broader framework, but agencies and financial institutions are advancing what they can under existing law.
Established frameworks elsewhere are already supporting products coming to market. @ZamanatDigital's tokenized private credit fund is one example: launched in September, with interests issued on ZIG Chain and ZIG Markets serving as Distribution Agent.
It shows how a framework, infrastructure and distribution can come together to bring an onchain product to eligible investors while the wider US debate continues.
At ZIG Finance, we’re focused on making those connections work across the markets we serve, turning the frameworks available today into products investors can access.
Over the last two months, leading RWA protocols grew TVL by 19% on average. The ZIG ecosystem grew 98%.
Most of it came from stablecoin deposits in @Valdora_finance, which rose from $28.7M to $67.8M. That is $39M of new capital in vaults curated by ZIG Markets.
Stablecoin holders are choosing vaults by who manages them. That is where we see the market heading.
“If ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 only works in a bull run, we’ve failed.”
That is why we are building a business that earns in any market.
Months of conversations with institutions have reinforced my conviction in crypto adoption. I think it will look different from what many token holders expect.
My thoughts on what comes next, and the business we’re building around $ZIG.
The fourth monthly ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 acquisition cycle is complete.
A portion of ZIG Markets revenue from October funded daily open-market acquisitions totalling 1,350,000 ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01, worth $68,175 at today’s price.
Half goes to the Ecosystem Pool. The other half goes to validators, who vote on whether to retire it.
Every cycle, onchain: zigscan.org/tx/ADC005DB50BB6…
