Laser Digital, the digital asset arm of Nomura Group, has invested in ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 This one genuinely means a lot to me. When we first started speaking, nearly two years ago now, I could see we were closely aligned. We both believed finance would move onchain, but that doing it properly would require credible institutions, strong risk standards, and built to scale. Today, Laser Digital is partnering with @ZIGChain, investing in ethereum:0xb2617246d0c6c0087f18703d576831899ca94f01 and working alongside the ZIG Markets team to bring financial products onchain. For me, this completes the loop we have always believed in: real onchain businesses generating real economic activity, and all the value created by that business flowing back to the native asset at the centre of the ecosystem. Seeing an institution of this calibre back both what we are building and the asset behind it is a powerful validation of what we’ve been working toward. A long time coming, and we’re just getting started.
