New PFP. New banner. New bio. New name. Not a rebrand — a reset. Because the next chapter of Web3 won’t be built inside the bubble. It’ll be built beyond it. At @MPMLabs_xyz, we’re going all in on what matters most: 🔹 Bringing traditional assets, businesses & institutions on-chain 🔹 Creating real-world value 🔹 Making Web3 exogenous That’s also why I haven’t been as active here lately. We’re out there fighting battles. Where business meets blockchain: in boardrooms, partnerships, and pilot programs where adoption actually happens. This post might not get a ton of engagement, and that’s fine. Because the goal isn’t to go viral. It’s to make Web3 inevitable. 🌍 #Web3 #Blockchain #DigitalAssets #RWA

Tokenization can create an instrument. Connected institutional rails create usable markets Our latest article examines how identity, regulated money, ownership, settlement & liquidity must work together to move real-world assets onchain Read the article

Real-world assets do not become usable markets simply because they are issued onchain. They need infrastructure that can coordinate identity, permissions, payments, settlement, custody, compliance and liquidity across the institutions that rely on them. That is where the next phase of tokenization will be decided. On Tuesday, September 22, MPM Labs OnStage returns with a focused conversation on The Institutional Rails for Real-World Onchain Markets How sovereign infrastructure, regulated fund platforms, and liquidity venues move assets, payments, and capital into usable digital markets. MPM Labs OnStage is proud to be a community partner of @token2049 Singapore 2026. This session forms part of our partnership coverage ahead of the event at Marina Bay Sands on 7–8 October. 📅 Tuesday, September 22 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live 👤 Host: Remco Slikker, @cryptomattk 👥 Co-host: Kyle Sonlin, @KyleSonlin 🗣️ Speakers ▪️ Ali (Theyab) Al-Zuhairi, @AliATheyab — Digital Economies Lead, UNDP Alternative Finance Lab, @UNDP ▪️ Jeroen Gillekens — EMEA Lead, LayerZero Labs, @LayerZero_Core ▪️ Dr Jamie Allsop — CEO, Clearpool.io / CPLX.io, @cplx_io; ex NYSE We’ll examine what institutions, governments and financial platforms require before onchain markets can support real economic activity. The discussion will explore sovereign-grade infrastructure, permissioned access, regulated fund operations, transfer agency, settlement controls, investor protection and the liquidity venues needed to make digital assets tradable and useful. The central question is simple: What has to exist around an onchain asset before it can function as part of a trusted financial market? 🎟️ Join us live for the chance to win one of three complimentary passes to TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026. ✈️Travelling to Singapore?

The next venture cycle could be shaped by two forces moving at once. AI is creating new assets while tokenization changes how investors access and finance them. Our latest article maps where the investable value may accrue.

AI and tokenization now sit inside the same allocation conversation. Where does the investable value actually accrue? Venture investors are evaluating company equity, tokens, network assets, regulated funds, secondary transactions and OTC access as different routes into emerging technology. This makes the investment thesis inseparable from market structure. Access, liquidity, custody, governance and reporting can determine whether an opportunity is viable at institutional scale. Our next MPM Labs OnStage will examine this investment landscape. The Venture Capital Outlook for AI and Tokenization How funds, onchain markets, and liquidity infrastructure are shaping exposure to emerging technology. 📅 Tuesday, August 25 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live 👤 Host: @MattKielczewski, @cryptomattk 👥 Co-host: Kyle Sonlin, @KyleSonlin 🗣️ Speakers ▪️ Mona Tiesler, @CryptoMonaT — Head of Investments, tokentus investment AG, @tokentus_AG, and Venture Partner, Edge Capital Group, @EdgeVenturesVC ▪️ Stanislas de Maistre, @standemaistre General Partner, Belem Capital ▪️ Alexandre Vogeleer, Founding Partner, Volna Capital ▪️ Faraj Abutalibov, @faraj_abut — Sr. Advisor, Middle East Market Development, Stellar Development Foundation, @stellarorg We’ll explore where AI infrastructure and blockchain rails reinforce each other economically and how investors determine whether value accrues to company equity, tokens or the surrounding infrastructure. The panel will also examine how onchain markets could support access to private-market growth and secondary liquidity, alongside the requirements institutional allocators bring to these markets. The central question is where the economics remain strong after the narrative moves on. Join us live 👇 linkedin.com/events/74943357…

Stablecoins are moving into neobanks, wallets, payment apps, and treasury platforms. Our latest article examines how fintechs are turning these rails into usable financial products, where the economics are strongest, and who controls the interface.

Stablecoins are moving deeper into Web2 finance, entering the neobanks, wallets and payment apps people already use. Inside a neobank, wallet or payment app, a simple balance can sit above a complex chain of custody, liquidity, compliance, FX and local settlement. The interface determines whether those rails become a financial product customers can understand and rely on. Our next MPM Labs OnStage focuses on that interface. The Fintech Interface for Stablecoin Adoption How neobanks, wallets and payment apps are turning stablecoin rails into usable financial products. 📅 Tuesday, August 4 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live Host: Matt Kielczewski, @cryptomattk Co-host: Kyle Sonlin, @KyleSonlin Speakers ▪️ Sharene Lee, @lee_sha_rene — Co-founder & COO, Takadao @takadao_io (Technology partner for TheLifeDAO, @TheLifeDAO_io) ▪️ Manny Narang, @mannyornothing — Founder, Blend. Money @blend_money ▪️ Elie Naba — CEO, Meridyan We’ll examine how these products are being built around payments, cross-border transfers and broader financial services, alongside the infrastructure decisions that shape custody, liquidity, compliance, fraud controls and customer protection. The discussion will also consider how stablecoin integration changes the position of neobanks across the financial stack, and what it could mean for wallets, exchanges, payment companies and banks. The stablecoin rail may sit beneath the product. Adoption will be shaped by the quality and reliability of the financial experience built above it. Join us live 👇 linkedin.com/events/74875114…

Robotics is moving from tools we control to systems that can work, coordinate, and generate revenue. That shift creates a question that sits directly inside onchain finance. When a machine can earn, pay, prove activity, or distribute revenue, it stops being only a device. It becomes part of an economic network. And every economic network needs rails. If robots, agents, drones, sensors, vehicles, and autonomous machine fleets can transact, then the next question is what financial infrastructure sits underneath them: identity, settlement, verification, custody, payments, and revenue distribution. That is the layer this conversation is about. On Tuesday, July 21st, MPM Labs OnStage returns with a focused conversation on The Financial Rails for Robotics and the Machine Economy How DePIN, machine identity, and onchain payments could support autonomous devices that transact and generate revenue. 📅 Tuesday, July 21 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live 👤Host: Matt Kielczewski, @cryptomattk 👥Co-host: Kyle Sonlin, @KyleSonlin Speakers ▪️Sue Ennis, @bigsuey — President, Realbotix @RealbotixCorp ▪️Shaye Backus, @shayebackus — Head of Growth, PrismaX, @PrismaXai ▪️Bill Lee, @billtlee — Dualmint, @DualMintRWA We’ll discuss how autonomous devices could use wallets, payment permissions, stablecoins, machine identity, and DePIN networks to verify activity, settle transactions, distribute revenue, and support machine-to-machine commerce. Robots can perform work. The harder question is whether they can prove it, get paid for it, settle it, and distribute the revenue safely. That is the financial infrastructure layer we’ll unpack.

LATEST: ⚡ droppRWA’s chairman has reportedly secured $12.5B in tokenization mandates for Saudi real-world assets, starting with real estate.

RWA tokenization has moved beyond proof-of-concept. The harder part is making tokenized assets work inside capital-market workflows: settlement, collateral, liquidity, custody, and reporting. On Tuesday, July 7th, MPM Labs OnStage returns to unpack the operational layer behind tokenized real-world assets: Topic: The Real Test for RWA Tokenization: Settlement, Collateral, and Liquidity What needs to work beneath the surface before tokenized RWAs can scale across institutional markets? 📅 Tuesday, July 7 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live 👤Host: Matt Kielczewski, @cryptomattk 👥Co-host: Kyle Sonlin, @KyleSonlin 🗣️Speakers: Gijs Koning — COO, VanEck Europe, @vaneck_eu Faisal Monai, @FaisalMonai — Chairman, droppGroup, @droppgroup; CEO, dropp RWA, @dropprwa Megan Nilsson, @megan_crypto — Founder, The Crypto Megan Podcast on DraperTV We’ll discuss settlement reliability, collateral movement, liquidity depth, institutional access, and the market infrastructure required for tokenized assets to enter real financial workflows.

Digital asset exposure is starting to look different in public markets. The question is shifting from “which token captures the upside?” to which listed businesses can convert onchain activity into durable revenue, regulated access, custody demand, stablecoin flows, infrastructure usage, and investor-grade reporting. That is the focus of our next MPM Labs OnStage session: IPOs Are Back. Public Markets Want Onchain Infrastructure, Not Hype How investors, founders, and institutions are accessing digital asset growth through listed companies, infrastructure businesses, and new public-market routes. 📅 Tuesday, June 23 🕑 2 PM CET 📍 LinkedIn Live Host: Matt Kielczewski @cryptomattk Co-host: Kyle Sonlin 🌴 @KyleSonlin Speakers: Utlan Miller, @0xtanler — CEO, Hecto Finance @hectoinc Brice Vandevoorde — General Partner, Realiz Digital Assets Fund Loren Roosendaal, @LorenRoosendaal — Founder & CEO, Kanji Norbert Vadas, @NorbertVadas — Head of Product, Zenith, @ZenithFdn We’ll discuss what public-market scrutiny means for digital asset companies, how investors evaluate listed infrastructure businesses, and whether the next cycle rewards real operating models over market narrative.

1/ For a decade, Web3 and TradFi argued. In 2026, they're sitting at the same table. In 10 days, Jenny Johnson (CEO @FTDA_US, $1.5T AUM) and @adam3us (Co-Founder, @Blockstream , inventor of Hashcash) open Proof of Talk 2026 on the same stage. That fireside is the thesis of the entire event. @proofoftalk
