"Whos Mark Carney Im glad you asked; lets have a quick look at his background. Mark Joseph Carney is Canadas current Prime Minister is almost the exact opposite of the two other (populist platforms/followings) characters in this story so far: hes an academic economist (Harvard undergraduate Oxford masters/Ph.D.); we wont call him Dr. Carney because he isnt a Medical Doctor (M.D.) much like Jill Biden with a Doctorate in Education (Ed. D.) isnt a doctor even though the Dr. designation is by definition a title for any such persons who have earned a doctoral degree in: philosophy (Ph. D.)"

"I am confused; I'm only going to present these facts and hope that someone else can make this math for me: I found this ledger for "Every tokenized real-world asset in one place." - with me ALL OF THEM supposedly - total AUM: $34520000000 - or $35B as of: 10-23-25. OK. Per Bloomberg as of 11-27-24 total stablecoins are $200B: Then 6-18-25 per Bloomberg: "The passage of stablecoin legislation in the US Senate marks a huge leap forward for the potential mainstreaming of cryptocurrencies that track the US dollar one-to-one." projects to grow to $3.7T over the next few years pending regulation."

"Hey - Just FyI - when a large loan like that is issued by a bank & private its not private credit its a syndicated loan - term loan/leveraged loan/etc. Broadly known as BSLs - meaning theyre issued with with leverage & placed into a warehouse entity which is also leverage per the trustees line of credit arrangement with the purchasing entity. See this for more details on why this is an important distinction:"

"I want you to look at the definition for a "syndicated loan" before you start quoting "EBITDA" and such. These are loans to mid-market companies that broadly speaking do not even have the accounting mechanics to produce an "EBITDA" number; that's a fact. Hence the "below investment grade."

"What are the exact legal mechanics that 'bind' an asset such that it is 'on-chain' I understand the technical aspects - no need for that; I'm approaching this from a 'securitization' & 'custody' framework to define ownership.

In what cases are assets considered 'off-chain' & 'digital' as that's a layer of mess in itself These are mutually exclusive terms correct Let's go directly to the bond use case a corporate bond issued at par ($1000) with a 10-year maturity and X% (quarterly) coupon.
