The problem becomes more apparent for larger trades. Polosukhin used Nvidia as an example, saying that purchasing $10 million worth of the stock is relatively straightforward through Nasdaq, but executing an equivalent tokenized trade onchain remains difficult because available markets are much thinner. $NEAR is trying to address that gap through $NEAR Intents, which allows users to specify the asset and amount they want rather than manually navigating individual chains, bridges and liquidity pools.

The three reported positions would amount to nearly $4.8 million worth of $XRP ETF shares being used as collateral. The filing does not necessarily mean that Schwab’s money market fund actually bought the $XRP ETFs. Form N-MFP3 disclosures can identify securities posted as collateral. Thus, the filing actually means that $XRP ETF shares entered institutional collateral arrangements. More institutional filings More and more investment advisers and…
