The new product expands digital asset strategies for family offices and institutions. The move supports Singapore’s Project Guardian tokenization and hub ambitions. DBS Bank has announced the launch of tokenized structured notes on the Ethereum blockchain, making complex financial instruments accessible to qualified and institutional investors through Singapore exchanges ADDX, DigiFT, and HydraX. The initiative marks the bank’s first offering of tokenized products beyond its private client base. The debut product features crypto-linked participation notes that deliver cash payments when digital asset prices rise. At the same time, it limits downside exposure for investors. Traditional structured notes typically require $100,000 minimum investment and remain non-fungible due to customization, creating trading limitations. Tokenization Enhances Trading Flexibility and Access DBS has tokenized these instruments into $1,000 units. This makes the securities fungible and easier to trade while providing greater portfolio management flexibility. This fractional approach opens access to investment strategies previously reserved for high-net-worth individuals. Client demand for these instruments has grown substantially, with DBS reporting over $1 billion in trades during the first half of 2025. Trade volumes increased nearly 60% from Q1 to Q2 2025 and show strong institutional appetite for digital asset exposure through structured products. The bank targets family offices and professional investors who have expanded in Singapore, with single-family offices reaching 2,000 in 2024, up 43% year-over-year. These sophisticated investors seek advanced strategies for incorporating digital assets into their portfolios. Singapore’s Tokenization Hub Strategy Advances The launch supports Singapore’s development as a tokenized finance hub through the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s Project Guardian initiatives. These pilots explore asset tokenization across fixed income, foreign exchange, and fund categories while developing cross-border infrastructure. DBS has actively participated in these regulatory programs, typically using permissioned blockchains for… The post DBS Bank Debuts Tokenized Structured Notes on Ethereum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Wormhole, an interoperability protocol facilitating asset transfers between blockchains, announced updated tokenomics to its native Wormhole (W) token, including a token reserve and more yield for stakers. The changes could affect the protocol’s governance, as staked Wormhole tokens allocate voting power to delegates.According to a Wednesday announcement, three main changes are coming to the Wormhole token: a W reserve funded with protocol fees and revenue, a 4% base yield for staking with higher rewards for active ecosystem participants, and a change from bulk unlocks to biweekly unlocks.“The goal of Wormhole Contributors is to significantly expand the asset transfer and messaging volume that Wormhole facilitates over the next 1-2 years,” the protocol said. According to Wormhole, more tokens will be locked as adoption takes place and revenue filters back to the company.Read more
