Ethereum’s blockchain technology provides the critical infrastructure needed for Wall Street institutions to upgrade their trading, clearing, and settlement mechanisms for the digital era. Etherealize accelerates institutional adoption through a dual mandate of: - Educating institutions about Ethereum as a store of value asset and technology platform; and - Connecting institutions to Ethereum by building products to onboard assets and users into the Ethereum ecosystem.

  • With a decade of 100% uptime, hundreds of billions in secured value, and the most liquidity of any blockchain, Ethereum has earned the trust of the world’s leading financial institutions. The new Ethereum for Institutions hub from the Ethereum Foundation highlights how real-world finance is being rebuilt on Ethereum, from stablecoins and tokenized treasuries to institutional DeFi and corporate L2s. At Etherealize, we’re proud to be part of this movement. The future of finance isn’t being imagined. It’s being built. On Ethereum. institutions.ethereum.org

    Etherealize: Connecting Institutions to the Ethereum Ecosystem

    **Public Ethereum and Programmable Privacy: the Next Frontier** Public blockchains introduced something revolutionary: verifiable transparency. Every transaction exists on an open, immutable, neutral ledger. Zero-knowledge proofs take that foundation further by adding programmable privacy. When truth is provable without exposure, you no longer need to trust a third party with your information. Transparency becomes more powerful, not less. Imagine proving you have a valid ticket at the airport without revealing your destination. Verification happens publicly, while sensitive data stays private. This convergence makes institutional infrastructure more efficient, compliant, and secure than ever before. Cryptographic privacy isn’t about upholding legacy frameworks. It’s about evolution. Onchain privacy unlocks a new dynamic: - Regulatory compliance can be proven without exposing underlying data, allowing institutions to keep sensitive information confidential. - Data minimization ensures that only essential information is revealed, reducing exposure by up to 99 percent. - Auditability allows regulators and third parties to verify correctness directly onchain, creating trust without full data disclosure. The applications are endless. Exchanges can prove assets exceed liabilities without exposing individual positions. Smart contracts keep order flow private while correctness remains verifiable. Wallets can prove accreditation without revealing net worth or personal documents. The result is clear. Public blockchains remain transparent where it matters, ensuring accountability and verifiability. Private data stays private where it must, preserving confidentiality and security. Together, they create a system where institutions gain efficiency, regulators gain assurance, and users gain sovereignty. This is the privacy layer of open finance. The next chapter of finance isn’t public or private, it’s both: publicly verifiable and privately secure. Etherealize is building that bridge with institutional privacy infrastructure rooted in Ethereum.

    CEO Loan Market Solutions @ Etherealize: Connecting Institutions to the Ethereum Ecosystem

    See you all at the LSTA Annual Conference this year! It’s been a while since I last attended, and I’m genuinely looking forward to reconnecting with old friends, colleagues, and partners across the syndicated loan market. Since joining Etherealize in April, I’ve been dedicated to driving innovation in the loan space by harnessing blockchain technology to enhance efficiency, predictability and trust in market operations. The market is at a pivotal moment, and collaboration will be crucial in unlocking its full potential. If you’re attending the conference and interested in discussing how technology can revolutionize our market, I’d be delighted to connect and continue the conversation.

  • The $16 trillion U.S. housing market is ripe for tokenization. In a DLNews article, Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman makes the case that mortgage and housing markets are next in line to move onchain. The reasons are clear: •Scale: housing is the largest asset class in the U.S. •Inefficiency: settlement delays and layers of intermediaries trap capital and raise costs. •Momentum: regulators and institutions are already experimenting with tokenized treasuries and credit. Housing is the logical next step. Ethereum provides the security, neutrality, and modularity to support markets of this size. Tokenizing housing isn’t about novelty, it’s a part of rewiring the rails of finance to unlock trillions in value. https://lnkd.in/erUaXJZP

  • Wall Street moves trillions of dollars every day on rails built decades ago. Trades can still take days to settle, with intermediaries adding cost, risk, and friction. The question isn’t whether these systems will modernize, it’s which blockchain will carry their weight when they do. Danny Ryan, Etherealize Cofounder and President, explains why Ethereum is the best and only choice: “Crypto-economic security is a scarce resource. Canton relies on honesty assumptions… that’s smoke-and-mirrors privacy. With cryptography, you solve privacy fundamentally. You solve privacy with math.” For Wall Street, the question isn’t just about privacy, it’s about resilience: They don't need promises, they need guarantees. Ethereum has proven for a decade that no single actor controls its uptime or rules. Ethereum's credible neutrality is its greatest asset. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eK_XQFxG

  • The rise of Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) marks the next chapter in responsible crypto adoption. DATs are not Ponzi schemes. They’re public companies with underlying assets, NAV, and strategies to maximize shareholder value. They’re institutional by design, offering brokerage account access and capital markets sophistication, with the additional benefits of onchain yield. Why does this matter? Because DATs are the bridge between Wall Street and crypto. They’re making ETH and BTC accessible to a broader investor base while amplifying adoption of the Ethereum ecosystem. As Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman wrote in his guest article for BowTied Bull, Ethereum is poised to be the premier asset for DATs to purchase and hold: – Native yield through staking and DeFi – Deep liquidity and global network effects – An inflation rate below BTC's and monetary policy that's monotonically decreased since ETH's inception, positioning it as a store of value comparable to Bitcoin In addition, Ethereum benefits from its premier branding and position as the world's largest smart contract blockchain, giving it a powerful marketing engine for retail investors and other DAT buyers. The Endgame: consolidation toward a few large DATs that become stewards of crypto capital—just as BlackRock or Vanguard are for traditional assets. The institutions that understand this shift now will be positioned to lead the next era of global finance. 👉 Read the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/evs7PygN

  • We’re proud to share that Etherealize raised $40M to rewire Wall Street’s financial infrastructure with Ethereum. Institutions are moving onchain at unprecedented speed: •$15B+ has flowed into Ethereum treasury vehicles this year •95% of stablecoin value lives on Ethereum •Tokenized RWAs are the fastest-growing asset class in DeFi Etherealize is building the rails to support this shift: •A trading & settlement engine designed for institutional workflows •Zero-knowledge privacy infrastructure purpose-built for compliant capital markets •An integration suite that connects Wall Street desks directly to Ethereum liquidity Our mission is clear: To embed Ethereum into the core of global finance so markets are faster, safer, and built to last. We’re grateful to our investors, advisors, and partners who share this vision. The Institutional Merge has begun—and this is just the start. Let’s build.
