About the Episode

In this episode, Adi Ben-Ari is joined by Katie Evans, Chief Business Development & Communications officer at Swarm, to explore the transformative potential of tokenising real-world assets (RWAs) through blockchain technology.

Katie shares insights into Swarm’s leadership in the digitisation and trading of traditional financial assets such as stocks, bonds, and gold. As the first platform to offer digitised treasury bills and Apple stock through a compliant and decentralised system, Swarm effectively bridges the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralised finance (DeFi). She highlights the key advantages of Swarm’s innovative approach, including instant settlement, transparency, and self-custody, which enhance efficiency, accessibility and resilience of financial markets. The conversation also covers the evolving regulatory landscape, the significance of community-driven governance through Swarm’s SMT token and DAO, and the potential for DeFi lending and borrowing powered by tokenised assets.

Swarm is a pioneering blockchain-based platform specialising in the tokenisation of real-world assets, offering innovative digitization and trading solutions for traditional finance. By merging the flexibility, speed, and efficiency of blockchain trading with the trust and asset diversity of traditional exchanges, Swarm enables compliant tokenisation of real-world collateral.
