Chinese Fintech Linklogis Joins XRPL’s Growing RWA Ecosystem
Linklogis deploys trade finance applications on the XRP Ledger mainnet. The partnership targets faster cross-border settlements for global commerce. Integration aims to effectively tokenize supply chain real-world assets.
XRPL’s tokenized RWA volume surged 22.81%, reaching $305.8 million monthly. The network currently ranks ninth globally by RWA value. Recent partnerships span the Dubai real estate and Brazilian agribusiness sectors.
Linklogis processed $2.8 billion in cross-border assets last year. Future developments include stablecoin settlements and AI-enhanced trade finance. The collaboration strengthens XRPL’s enterprise adoption across multiple jurisdictions.
Founded in 2016 with backing from Tencent and other investors, Linklogis became China’s first listed supply-chain fintech in 2021. The company serves over 330,000 SMEs across 27 countries globally. Consequently, its asset scale exceeds RMB 1.5 trillion ($206 billion).
Philippine Senator Proposes Blockchain National Budget System
Philippine Senator Bam Aquino advocates placing the Philippines’ entire national budget on blockchain. The proposal would make every peso traceable to citizens, building upon the existing Department of Budget Management blockchain platform.
BayaniChain currently powers select government financial document recording systems. The platform uses Polygon’s Proof-of-Stake network for transparency. If realized, the Philippines could become the first country to have fully blockchain-based budget management.
Separately, Congressman Miguel Luis Villafuerte proposed acquiring 10,000 Bitcoin as a strategic reserve. The bill mandates a 20-year holding period with limited liquidation options, positioning Bitcoin alongside gold and foreign exchange reserves nationally.
