A definitive guide for banks navigating the shift from TradFi to tokenized finance
Liminal Custody, wallet infrastructure and custody technology leader, today released a major strategic report https://www.liminalcustody.com/insights/the-walled-garden/ that serves as a definitive blueprint for banks and financial institutions looking to be a part of the digital asset reality. Large traditional banks are already making technology investments to prepare for this shift from TradFi to DeFi.
The research (https://www.liminalcustody.com/insights/the-walled-garden/) confirms an urgent threat and a massive opportunity:
- $46 Trillion in stablecoin volume now operates outside traditional banking systems.
- The Real-World Asset (RWA) market is projected to swell to $16 Trillion by 2030.
- Digital asset turnover is expected to account for 10% of global totals within five years.
“The market is no longer waiting for banks to catch up; it is moving past them,” said Mahin Gupta, Founder – Liminal. “To secure a share of the $16 Trillion RWA future, institutions must transform. Our report details exactly how this ‘Walled Garden’ architecture allows banks to enforce fiduciary standards and governance protocols directly on-chain.”
The report (available at https://www.liminalcustody.com/insights/the-walled-garden/) cites one key strategic hurdle as compliance: integrating high-value, permissioned banking products onto inherently open blockchain platforms without sacrificing governance.
Rajesh Sabari, Chief Commercial Officer at Liminal, emphasized the immediate, proven path to adoption: “Delay is conceding market share. We are offering workshops to help institutions create this infrastructure. We have successfully deployed this compliant risk architecture and scaled digital asset operations for major financial institutions securely, quickly and efficiently.”
