🔥 $SOL enters the institutional world — partnership with R3 opens the door to asset tokenization at the level of HSBC and central banks

🧬 $SOL and corporate blockchain developer R3 announced a strategic alliance aimed at connecting the world's largest banks to the public Solana network for the tokenization of assets (RWA). Among R3's clients are Bank of America, HSBC, and central banks in Europe and Asia.

📌 Key details:

— Solana is now integrated into R3's corporate ecosystem;

— President of Solana Foundation, Lily Liu, has joined R3's board of directors;

— Solana has become the first non-EVM network compatible with Chainlink CCIP — a crucial bridge for tokens between networks.

📊 Currently, the volume of RWA on Solana is only $338 million, while Ethereum has over $7 billion. This partnership could significantly accelerate the growth of institutional interest and liquidity in the network.

💡 Why this is important:

Solana has long needed a fundamental institutional case — and now it has emerged. This signals that the network is moving beyond hype and memes, offering infrastructure for 'serious money'. Such steps could act as a catalyst for the re-evaluation of $SOL as an asset.
