For a while, it's been clear to me that the future of digital (anything) will be on blockchains. I've been digging into this whitepaper, and what it lays out can be a game changer for emerging markets like Sierra Leone 🇸🇱

Even after the closing bell rings in New York, Sierra Leoneans with no bank accounts or brokerage services are buying US stocks with mobile money. The Internet Capital Market is already turning everyday Africans into global investors.
They don't ring a closing bell on the internet. Treasuries, stocks, private credit, even uranium: every day another asset is tokenized and trading 24/7. The Bloomberg terminal for internet capital markets has arrived. Follow @capitalmarkets for updates.

In less than two days we have over doubled our traded volume to over $2,000,000 USD! Slowly, and then all at once 🦈 On-chain is the future.
Remora has officially recorded over $1,000,000 USD in traded volume in less than 2 weeks since launch! The power of decentralising TradFi and bringing NASDAQ stocks on-chain is just beginning... Anytime, anywhere, 24/7. Remora. 🦈
