Lombard Finance, a bitcoin financial products startup, is launching a new product called the \"Bitcoin Onchain Credit Strategy,\" with global trading firm Flow Traders taking part as a pilot partner. The product is designed to let Flow borrow stablecoins for market-making without posting its own onchain collateral. Instead, bitcoin deposited in Lombard’s Bitcoin Earn yield product serves as collateral through an underwriting structure run on the CAP private credit platform.

Securitize and Cantor Fitzgerald are developing infrastructure to support initial public offerings and follow-on share offerings based on tokenised securities within the existing U.S. securities regulatory framework. The companies are preparing a basic issuance structure for public markets that would allow companies to raise funds using tokenised securities. Securitize will provide tokenisation infrastructure, while its SEC-registered broker-dealer affiliate Securitize Markets will take part in offering and settlement. Cantor Fitzgerald will provide equity capital markets and trading capabilities.
