    INX, the regulated marketplace for trading security tokens and tokenized real-world assets, and Backed, a pioneer in real-world asset tokenization, today announced the listing of tokenized stock on the INX platform for eligible non-US users. This groundbreaking partnership begins with the launch of bNVDA, a tokenized security backed one-to-one by NVIDIA Corp (NVDA) stock, issued on the Ethereum network, with the blockchain ledger conveying ownership.

    The Future of Investing

    This launch is a monumental step towards democratizing access to traditional financial assets and merging them with the 24/7 liquidity and accessibility of the digital asset space. Non-US eligible investors will be able to trade bNVDA with the ease and speed of cryptocurrencies, outside of traditional stock market hours, and with the ability to fund their account with crypto. Self-custodial securities open up new possibilities for traders. This is only the start, with more assets coming in the pipeline, such as ETFs, Bonds, or even commodities arriving on INX in the future. Backed’s tokenized public securities are called bTokens, which are permissionless ERC-20 tokens that can be transferred between wallets freely.

    “We are thrilled to have Backed as one of our tokenization and issuance partners, and we’re excited to initiate the listing of their securities in our marketplace.” said Shy Datika, CEO of INX. “This partnership represents another milestone in our journey to enable the trading of real-world assets tokens. We are committed to advancing the accessibility and efficiency of the tokenized asset market, ushering in a new era of global finance.”

    Adam Levi, Backed Co-Founder, added, “Crypto traders have been seeking a seamless bridge to the traditional market – and tokenized stocks provide exactly that. bNVDA is just the beginning; we envision a future where investors can build diversified portfolios of tokenized real-world assets directly on the blockchain. No need to offramp, and users can self custody their entire portfolio.”

    INX provides a marketplace for tokenized assets and their partnership with Backed brings the first tokenized share to this market. This means that Backed’s bNVDA can now be traded on INX, which integrates crypto, fiat, and security tokens into a unified marketplace. Traders can now benefit from 24/7 availability to trade bNVDA, and fractional share ownership.

    Backed’s tokenized assets, including bNVDA, are issued under an EU prospectus, allowing eligible investors to have full transparency of the products. Holders of bNVDA have the primary claim to the collateral value, in this case, Nvidia stock, which is held with a licensed custodian under an account control agreement. Distributed ledgers (blockchains) are the primary way that ownership is defined.

    With Republic recently reaffirming its commitment to form a strong partnership with INX, and Backed completing their Series A funding round, the ecosystem for tokenized securities is becoming increasingly exciting. With partnerships like this, true interoperability and composability is becoming a reality.

    Key Benefits:

    ●     Self-Custody: Hold the securities directly in a wallet that only you have control over.

    ●     24/7 Trading: Trade anytime, anywhere, not limited by traditional market hours.

    ●     DeFi ready: Use your tokenized stocks as collateral for loans or within other DeFi applications.

    ●     Blockchain Security: Leverage the inherent security and transparency of blockchain technology.

    ●     Access: Available to non-US qualified investors across multiple jurisdictions.

    ●     All On-chain: Fund your account with crypto and invest in tokenized stocks.

    How to Get Started

    Right now, to trade bNVDA, investors need to create an account on the INX platform and complete the required verification process.

    2024-10-03T15:05:27Z

    EVERETT, Wash., Oct. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coastal Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: CCB) (the “Company”), and its subsidiary, Coastal Community Bank (the “Bank”), announced that its role of President of the Bank is to be bifurcated to accommodate the Bank’s growth and plans for the future. The Bank announced the appointment of Brian Hamilton as President of CCBX, the FinTech and banking-as-a-service division of the Bank. Mr. Hamilton is a current member of the Company’s Board of Directors. In connection with the reorganization of the role of the President, the Bank also announced that Curt Queyrouze, the President of the Company and the Bank, will serve as President of the community bank division and will be responsible for leading the community bank and corporate credit.

    “As Coastal focuses on growing CCBX, we continuously seek out individuals with the skillsets and experience that we believe will bolster our banking-as-a-service division and who complement the leadership team already in place,” said Eric Sprink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. “We were fortunate to add Brian to our Board of Directors earlier this year and since then, he has been an invaluable contributor to the Company and the Bank. Brian’s appointment to this new role will allow the Company to benefit more deeply from his background and extensive expertise in banking, lending, payments and digital products development,” Mr. Sprink added.

    “Outside of CCBX, Coastal has been a fixture of community banking in the Puget Sound region for decades. We are excited to be able to bring that local, customer-first, community banking perspective and experience to new customers by evolving the community banking division to incorporate additional digital access for customers,” said Mr. Sprink. “Curt’s leadership, experience, and foresight have been key to Coastal’s success since he was appointed as President, and we are excited for him to build Coastal’s community bank division.”

    Mr. Hamilton is a seasoned financial technology executive and business leader, with more than 25 years of experience in banking, lending, payments and digital product development. Mr. Hamilton has held senior leadership roles at Capital One, serving as President of their Merchant Services division, Wells Fargo and Verifone, in addition to founding and operating multiple companies in the fintech space. Most recently Mr. Hamilton was co-founder and CEO of ONE (One Finance Inc.), which was acquired by a Walmart led joint venture in 2022. Prior to co-founding ONE, he was the founder of Azlo, a digital bank for small businesses, and helped to build out the BBVA Open Platform for sponsor banking services.

    “I am thrilled to deepen my relationship with the Coastal team in my new role leading the CCBX business. I have been lucky enough to work with many in management and across the Company and the Bank since joining the Board of Directors. I am excited to be able to take the experiences I gained and serve the Company and the Bank both as a member of management and as a director,” said Mr. Hamilton.
