Singapore sent a strong signal over the past two days: three pieces of the tokenization puzzle are starting to come together
From October 6 to 7, three signals emerged in Singapore that are worth looking at together.
On October 6, Digital Assets Summit 2026 was held at the Singapore Exchange Centre. The focus of discussion had shifted from “Can assets be tokenized?” to “Can tokenization create real markets?”
On the same day, Singapore-licensed digital asset platform DigiFT launched tokenized interests in a U.S. Treasury money market fund managed by Fidelity Investments.
On October 7, TOKEN 2049 Singapore opened, with traditional financial institutions such as Nasdaq, BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, Fidelity, and ICE taking part directly in the agenda. Discussions covered how institutional finance can move on-chain, how tokenized assets can achieve global liquidity, and how on-chain settlement can enter traditional capital markets.
