We’re finding ourselves very much at the intersection of art and finance today at the @StellarOrg House in Miami. Standing room only btwn art ppl and suits! ((Thread on the day’s learnings))

2/ Stellar framed the day around how financial services meets culture, which is *why* Basel. A lot of chat on RWAs and fractionalization, including tokenized real estate with @RedSwanDigital, which allows ppl to buy into a pool of properties, including high-end hotel portfolios.

3/ The largest real estate holder in the US called the @RedSwanDigital CEO to explore a tokenization pilot, per today’s convo. So onchain real estate feels perhaps realer than it has in the past.

4/ Privacy was the other big theme, specifically using ZK as a way to make privacy “configurable” instead of binary. Selective disclosure + shielded transactions you can still audit. Crucial for institutional adoption.

5/ Shiv Shankar from @boundless_xyz described ZK rollups as a compression system. Run AI or heavy compute inside that context and you do not just get scale, you ALSO get accountability.

6/ Stellar is over $5B in stablecoin supply now, so the scale story is not theoretical. Natasha reminded us on stage that every brand is a media company now, and Stellar House is a gorgeous example of that in practice. Thanks for having us!
