Pantera Capital and Unexpected Altcoin Announce New Joint Investment of $250 Million

Ondo Finance (ONDO) and Pantera Capital have announced plans to invest a total of $250 million to migrate real-world assets (RWA) to the blockchain environment.

Tokenization of traditional financial assets such as Treasury bonds, stocks, and similar has become the second fastest-growing area as regulations in the cryptocurrency market loosen.

According to Redstone data, tokenization of real-world assets rose from $5 billion in 2022 to more than $24 billion by June 2025. This rise has made RWA the fastest-growing space behind only stablecoins. This trend becomes even more remarkable when you consider that stablecoins are also a form of tokenization.

According to the statement of Ian De Bode, Ondo Finance’s chief strategy officer, this investment initiative called “Ondo Catalyst” aims to invest in both project tokens and direct company shares. Ondo wants to continue its pioneering in this area, as a startup in which Pantera Capital has already invested.

According to De Bode, while traditional financial markets do not operate 24/7, crypto markets operate without interruption. This is one of the main differences that makes it difficult for the two areas to merge. De Bode said, “Some DeFi protocols need to be restructured in order for on-chain services to reach the desired level,” and stated that the Catalyst initiative will prioritize projects that will eliminate these differences.

Catalyst aims to invest in projects that will encourage users to choose on-chain assets over their traditional counterparts. De Bode says that in the future, users will start asking the question, “Why should I keep my assets with an off-chain broker?” Solutions such as on-chain portfolios that can be automatically rebalanced and are active 24/7 stand out in line with this goal.

The covert war escalates: Hyperliquid faces a "kamikaze" attack, but the real battle may have just begun

The attacker incurred a loss of 3 million in a "suicidal" attack, but may have achieved breakeven through external hedging. This appears more like a low-cost "stress test" targeting the protocol's defensive capabilities.
