Saylor called for unity in the Bitcoin community, urging members to debate ideas without labeling allies as enemies.

Tradable, which has already tokenized $1.7 billion across nearly 30 private credit positions, will handle deal lifecycle management and investor onboarding. Stellar Development Foundation CEO Denelle Dixon noted that Stellar is the network regulated institutions choose for tokenizing RWAs.
