The race to build infrastructure worthy of global finance
-

The opportunity behind tokenized assets is massive, but the clock is ticking. Traditional finance is paying close attention — not just to blockchain’s promise, but to its failures. Every congested network and front-run trade reinforces skepticism.
Unlocking a true 24/7 global exchange will require more than incremental fixes. It demands infrastructure engineered for performance from day one: systems capable of handling over 100,000 transactions per second with sub-second finality.
Fairness must also be built into protocol design, eliminating malicious MEV and ensuring predictable execution. Just as critical is seamless composability, allowing assets and liquidity to move across ecosystems without friction.
The vision isn’t flawed. The foundation is. The question now is whether blockchain will build infrastructure worthy of global finance — or leave that job to traditional markets instead.
