In 1696, England attempted the world’s first tokenised property system, turning land into state-mandated legal-tender bills to rescue a collapsing monetary system. The National Land Bank failed, but its blueprint echoes today’s blockchain revolution. As the UK pushes toward a projected $4trillion tokenised real-estate market, the same questions return: can fractionalised property create liquidity without eroding trust? Three centuries on and the lesson endures - tokenisation transforms value, but

Public blockchains are moving from experimental rails to components of regulated financial infrastructure, but adoption remains constrained by legacy policy frameworks. Institutional tokenisation is gaining traction (Franklin Templeton, Apollo and others now issue blockchain-native funds) as forecasts suggest up to $5tn of tokenised assets by 2030. Yet regulatory models still draw rigid lines between “public” and “permissioned” networks, a taxonomy increasingly irrelevant as hybrid architectures

2025/12/11

Tokenisation has long been judged through the DeFi lens of total value locked (TVL) but for real-world assets, equities, gold, treasuries (already supported by deep liquidity) TVL is a false signal. The real innovation is automation: the ability for on-chain smart contracts to execute real-world trades, route them through regulated brokers, confirm custody and mint legally enforceable tokens in seconds. These emerging hybrid models shift tokenisation from synthetic representations to programmable,

Reid Winthrop returns to explain how insurance isn't just a safety net—it's the key to unlocking blockchain's real estate revolution. Did you know that insurance has been foundational to modern finance since 1710, when Sun Fire Office property owners displayed plaques to receive fire brigade protection? (That's over 300 years of financial infrastructure we're talking about.)Here's the fascinating part: insurance historically enabled mass homeownership by protecting

Crypto recovery in the UK sits at a crossroads: increasingly sophisticated crime on one side, and rapidly evolving legal and policing capabilities on the other. Recovery-room scams remain rampant with fraudsters posing as experts to re-victimise those already defrauded, whilst social-engineering attacks and even violent “wrench attacks” continue to rise. Law enforcement, overstretched and bound by mandates focused on catching criminals rather than chasing funds, often leaves victims frustrated

Each year, global finance spends £58 billion on corporate actions processing, with costs rising 10% annually and automation below 40%. Reliance on manual validation, fragmented systems and inconsistent data flows results in widespread inefficiency, high risk and unnecessary expense. Recent industry initiatives using blockchain and AI, similar to the Chainlink-led collaboration involving Swift, DTCC and S&P Global, demonstrate that a unified platform with verified, standardised data can

Digital disruption is the new business threat. Old continuity plans focused historically on fires, floods or server outages but, today, centralised failure can mean billion-dollar crypto collapses, regulatory shockwaves or code bugs that freeze assets overnight. Decentralised blockchains flip the script: redundancy and transparency take out single points of failure, making continuity a design feature, not an afterthought. G7 mega-banks launching a new stablecoin signals this shift in action,

Dollarization Benefits for London Property

2025/10/24

If US dollar stablecoins such as USDT or USDC take over London’s £5-50 million prime property market, the Bank of England could lose control over one of its richest asset classes. Foreign buyers could move capital instantly, bypassing sterling, whilst estate agents’ market in US dollars and settle via smart contracts in hours potentially on a peer-to-peer basis so removing escrow settlement risk. The upside? Hyper-liquid, globally accessible London real estate. The downside? Quietly handing monetary

Stablecoins are increasingly flowing through global payment rails. But here is the catch: in the US, they are still not legal tender - only US coins and Federal Reserve notes qualify. The IRS even classifies stablecoins as property, meaning every payment could trigger capital gains tax. But winds are shifting. The proposed Stablecoin Transparency and Accountability for a Better Ledger Economy (STABLE) Act of 2025 could make USD stablecoins legal tender. The ECB’s digital euro already envisions legal

The agency maintains suspected breach reporting is inconsistent and has been likely under-reported since 2022, with most issues arising inadvertently via delayed attribution, indirect exposure to designated persons (DPs) and weak due diligence. Three dominant jurisdictions pose threats: Russia, North Korea and Iran. OFSI urges a risk-based program using continuous

The US can no longer ignore crypto’s role in global finance with institutional adoption surging and Trump’s proposal for a US Strategic Crypto Reserve is a bold but divisive move.

Dark pools, long used in traditional finance, are entering crypto whereby bringing stability but challenging decentralisation. By shielding trades from public view, they reduce slippage and protect against predatory strategies such as front-running. For institutions and whales, they unlock liquidity without destabilising markets. Yet this privacy clashes with blockchain’s ethos of transparency and raises regulatory concerns.
