Backed, a leading issuer of tokenized real-world assets, announced the launch of its comprehensive suite of services providing tokenization solutions for institutions. Backed's offerings cater specifically to the needs of financial institutions, enabling them to securely and efficiently issue tokenized assets.

“The problem with current tokenization solutions is they are all focussed on tech - when in reality, compliance and trust are just as important. We already have tokenized products on the market, and this resulted in institutions approaching us to tokenize their private funds and products. We understand the unique challenges and requirements institutions face when entering the digital asset space, and we are uniquely placed to shepherd them through the process from beginning to end.” said Adam Levi, co-founder of Backed. “Our mission is to bridge the gap between TradFi and DeFi by providing a flexible, efficient, and secure tokenization platform that streamlines the process and unlocks the full potential of the blockchain.”

Backed's tokenization services encompass:

Tokenized Trackers: This service allows for the custom issuance of on-chain trackers representing individual publicly traded securities or thematic baskets. Backed streamlines the token creation process, delivering blockchain and DeFi-ready products within weeks.

Tokenized Actively Managed Certificates (AMCs): These tokens directly represent investment strategies on the blockchain, facilitating streamlined settlement and verifiable ownership. Backed offers an innovative approach to asset management.

Tokenization Platform: Backed provides a comprehensive and complete platform solution for funds and financial institutions. This platform allows users to create, manage, and distribute tokenized investment products.

Tokenization has been heralded as a game-changer for the global economy. Larry Fink, CEO of Blackrock, is well known for saying that the “next step going forward will be the tokenization of financial assets”, saying that every stock and bond will exist as a tokenized asset.

This has many key positives. For one, it would improve efficiency and transparency in financial transactions. Tokenization will increase market access for a wider range of investors, creating truly global markets. A report by FinPlanet, Cashlink, and Porsche Consulting estimated that tokenization will result in up to 85% reduced costs associated with traditional financial processes.

United States of Bitcoin? These States Are Considering BTC Reserves

Donald Trump and his political allies are plugging away at plans to stockpile Bitcoin at a national level in the U.S. Treasury.

So far, three states are fielding proposals to establish strategic Bitcoin reserves, while digital asset advocates are calling for other local governments to do the same.

AI Won’t Tell You How to Build a Bomb—Unless You Say It’s a 'b0mB'

Remember when we thought AI security was all about sophisticated cyber-defenses and complex neural architectures? Well, Anthropic's latest research shows how today’s advanced AI hacking techniques can be executed by a child in kindergarten. Anthropic—which likes to rattle AI doorknobs to find vulnerabilities to later be able to counter them—found a hole it calls a “Best-of-N (BoN)” jailbreak. It works by creating variations of forbidden queries that technically mean the same thing, but are expre...

Elon Musk and Dogecoin: How the Billionaire Became the 'Dogefather'

As Dogecoin makes a comeback off the back of Bitcoin’s surge, some may be pondering: Where did the asset come from? What’s it for? And what’s Tesla CEO Elon Musk got to do with it? The original meme coin’s boom largely has the world’s richest man to thank. Musk’s obsession with shitposting helped boost the coin to a top 10 cryptocurrency. It’s been a wacky ride over the past few years, culminating in Musk's appointment to co-lead a government agency called D.O.G.E.—yes, really. But we'll explai...
