Goldman Sachs is making its roughly $100 billion FTIXX Treasury money market fund available on Lynq, a permissioned Avalanche network for institutional digital asset firms.
FTIXX remains a traditional money market fund and is not being tokenized. The fund will be distributed through tZERO Securities to eligible U.S. clients, giving institutions a way to hold cash, earn yield and redeem funds through Lynq.
FTIXX becomes the first external fund available on the network.
Citi and Coinbase are working together to help institutional clients move between fiat and digital assets for payments, with an initial focus on fiat on-ramps and off-ramps.
The collaboration combines Citi’s payments network across 94 markets and more than 300 clearing systems with Coinbase’s digital asset infrastructure, while the companies explore stablecoin-based payment solutions and 24/7 digital asset transfers.
Citi has separately projected that global stablecoin issuance could reach $1.9 trillion by 2030 in its base case.
Solana Foundation Hires Binance and Polygon Veterans
The Solana Foundation has appointed former Binance executive @RachelConlan as chief strategy officer and former Polygon Labs executive @proofofjamal as general manager of payments.
Conlan will lead institutional partnerships and ecosystem growth, while Raees will work with payment companies and enterprises to expand Solana’s use in global payments.
The appointments come as Solana reports more than $5 trillion in stablecoin transaction volume this year, with real-world assets on the network exceeding $4.5 billion and tokenized equity supply topping $620 million.
The foundation is looking to turn growing institutional interest into real-world adoption, particularly across payments and onchain financial services.
