Odaily Planet Daily News: In response to questions about the company's future in the post-Gensler era, Prometheum CEO Aaron Kaplan stated that Prometheum has the opportunity to explore areas beyond cryptocurrency, utilizing its pioneering license (known as a special purpose broker-dealer) to offer a variety of assets, including "stocks, debt instruments, structured products, options, ETFs, money market funds," and other assets existing in the form of blockchain securities. Kaplan wrote, "We expect that as trillions of securities are issued on the blockchain, the Trump Administration will oversee this market transformation, bringing the benefits that blockchain technology has long promised to market participants." Matt Walsh, co-founder of crypto venture firm Castle Island, has been outspoken in criticizing Prometheum, stating that there is hardly any evidence that anyone is using the company's platform for real-world trading. Despite financial giants like Goldman Sachs and BlackRock, as well as crypto-native companies like Superstate, venturing into the tokenization of traditional assets, this remains a very niche financial sector. When asked whether Prometheum could point to real-world clients or any evidence of market traction, Kaplan stated that the company is still in a "very early stage" and is "actively engaging in discussions with financial institutions."
