Not just DeFi infra anymore, now it’s real fintech rails. BlackRock. $Buidl surpassed $500m in RWAs. Avalanche is now the #2 chain for institutional settlement, second only to Ethereum. Gemini. Enabled Usdt and Usdc transfers on Avalanche. Better liquidity. Lower friction. Infrastructure that didn’t exist last cycle. JPYC. Japan’s first fully regulated Yen stablecoin launched on Avalanche. Direct signal for the Asia Fintech Stablecoin corridor. Colombia. OpenTrade and Glim deployed an anti inflation settlement platform. A real DeFi use case built with local fintechs. Tixbase x Copa América. Official ticketing for a continental sports event. Not web3 for fans, actual user distribution at scale. PayProtocol (Korea).

As product.
