"$1 trillion might sound quite big, but if you put it into context, the global fixed income market is about $130 trillion, and the global equities market is at around $120 trillion. By tokenizing just 1% of that, we will easily exceed $1 trillion."

But what would it take for tokenization to reach $1 trillion?

At Conviction 2026, our Founder and CEO Jeremy Ng put the $1 trillion opportunity into perspective and explained why OpenEden is focusing on tokenized fixed income like TBILL and HYBOND.

HYBOND, the first tokenized BNY bond fund, has integrated RedStone’s NAV oracle on BNB Chain.

RedStone's oracle pulls HYBOND’s underlying fund’s disclosed NAV from BNY, independently authenticates the source, and publishes signed updates on-chain.

This gives protocols trusted, verifiable pricing data to integrate HYBOND into lending and borrowing markets, risk-tranching protocols, and other DeFi applications, expanding how professionally managed bond exposure can be used on-chain.

Verified valuation is one part of that infrastructure. Settlement is next: a planned integration with RedStone's Settle will support T+0 settlement of HYBOND liquidations and redemptions.

How can institutions use tokenization to connect treasury operations, on-chain liquidity, and traditional capital markets?

The technology is ready. The challenge is making risk, custody, and counterparty standards hold across different systems.

John McWhorter, Chief Risk Officer at OpenEden, brings that perspective to a roundtable at the Payments, Treasury & Tokenization Summit 2026 during TOKEN2049 Singapore week, alongside executives from Barclays, PwC, UOB, BitGo, and more.

OpenEden is partnering with Axcess to make capital more productive across institutional credit facilities.

Axcess will hold borrowers’ first-loss collateral buffers and part of its treasury in $USDO, earning Treasury-backed yield while keeping the buffers available to cover borrower defaults.

Borrowers can also opt to receive capital in United Stables’ $U through OpenEden, earning distribution rewards while using it as trading collateral to help offset borrowing costs.

The partnership extends USDO’s role into institutional lending operations, putting capital to work throughout the life of a credit facility.
