🚩🚩🚩This is tokenization of securities in action!
Market makers want tokenized securities so they can borrow shares when none exist — even if the broker (like FTX) doesn't actually have a single share of the underlying stock 🚨
@JDVance
this allows them to naked short stocks with zero available shares as the MMs only need "reasonable belief" that the broker has the shares to lend, but not actual proof of shares backing the token 🧠🤯

Basel III and ISO 20022 are the knives in the ribs forcing reserve transparency and real-time auditing that exposes fractional-reserve shell games and off-balance-sheet slush. No more moving money in the dark without a system check. We are literally removing these parasitic cults from our financial system.
ISO 20022 ends them by enforcing rich, structured, auditable data in every cross-border payment stripping the opacity that let black budgets, trafficking proceeds, and hidden skims flow undetected through legacy SWIFT MT formats.
November 2026 milestones (full unstructured address ban, mandatory structured fields, annual release cycles) plus end of MT coexistence make anonymous correspondent banking impossible, forcing real-time transparency that collapses the old cabal’s off-books leverage while enabling bridge assets like XRP for verifiable settlement
