Expert Statements

Joseph Onorati, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Development Corp.

“Tokenization is rapidly moving from an emerging use case to a major driver of blockchain adoption”

Joseph Onorati, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Development Corp.

“With more than $5 billion in real-world assets now on Solana, we’re seeing traditional finance increasingly embrace the network. We believe this is just the beginning of a much larger shift in how financial assets are issued, traded, and settled. Tokenization will be a massive long-term tailwind for SOL, and we’re continuing to accumulate accordingly.”
