"The trade can happen in fractions of a millisecond; but the actual clearing and the movement of collateral in the settlement still takes many days — particularly if we're talking about international commodity markets. So that's the use case." On the series premiere of Re-Engineering Tokenization, Abaxx Technologies's Founder and CEO Josh C. points to one of the most persistent structural issues in global markets: the speed gap between electronic trading and the movement of collateral that secures it. For institutions managing margin across global markets, those delays have real consequences. Capital is still tied up in settlement systems that take days to move, even as trading speed continues to accelerate. In their conversation, Crumb and David Greely examine the barriers that have made institutional adoption of tokenization difficult — and how Abaxx’s framework brings ownership, identity, and law together within a digital market infrastructure designed for real-time collateral movement.
