The most revered private blockchain builders in the world—R3—are bringing Solana mainnet connectivity to banks, asset managers, and stock exchanges Excited to work with David, Todd, Richard and the incredible R3 team to bring the world’s FIs and enterprises to public blockchain

My team spent a decade building the world's largest collection of permissioned blockchain networks. Today, we're connecting this ecosystem to Solana. But why was it private in the first place?! What were we thinking? I wrote this post to tell the story :) r3.com/the-institutio…

The convergence of public and private blockchains is here – powered by R3 and the Solana Foundation. After last week’s announcement, our CPTO Richard G Brown (Richard Gendal Brown) explains how this collaboration is transforming capital markets and what it means for the entire industry.

My team at R3 is making it possible for Corda networks to connect directly to Solana for consensus, settlement and asset bridging. I wrote this piece to explain the technical rationale for the Solana choice.

When R3 said it was integrating with the Solana #blockchain it raised a question: A key feature of R3's Corda DLT is privacy. How is that maintained on Solana? So we asked Richard Richard Gendal Brown Brown, R3's CTO: ledgerinsights.com/r3s-corda-inte…

Just finished reading this excellent report on the Solana ecosystem by Ichigo | helius.dev of Helius helius.dev/blog/solana-ec…. It includes a summary of the technical reasons R3 chose Solana as the basis of our strategy to bring regulated institutions and their RWAs onchain.

Solana's vision is bold: to become the global financial infrastructure. Our job at R3 is to make that vision a reality. By connecting $15B+ in tokenized RWAs from Corda to Solana — where institutional capital and deep liquidity can converge — we’re expanding access to

Our plum trees have been unusually productive this year. To the extent one of them couldn’t take the weight of the fruit…

Corda underpins world's largest collection of TradFi blockchains... >$15bn of assets. We're leading convergence of TradFi with growing public DeFi ecosystem. But which to target? What are the requirements a network needs to satisfy, and why did I conclude Solana was the best fit?

R3 (R3) earned the trust of institutions like HSBC, Euroclear, and SDX. Next stop: permissionless markets. $15B+ in tokenized assets are coming to Solana.

This is a must read on how R3 will bring Solana to every institution on the planet

#Solana doesn’t rely on Layer 2s or shortcuts to scale. It achieves high performance through fundamental design choices: 🔹 Stateless smart contracts that separate code from the data it touches 🔹 Transactions that declare all account access up front 🔹 Parallel execution

I guess it is now contrarian to launch an app instead of yet another L1. Feels good GLHF to the new L1s. We will be busy growing the internet capital market of Solana

Shh!!! Don't spoil it! This is the best excuse for busy people ever invented. "Sorry I didn't reply to your email but I deleted everything in my inbox to save the polar bears."

Proud to be part of a long line of R3 alumni that have contributed so much to Web3. Sui, Doge, Tezos, Bitcoin, Ethena and many more. The R3 lore continues

Perfect example of the benefit one gets from being part of a vibrant L1 ecosystem rather than trying to build your own: you don't have to develop everything yourself. Yesterday, "but... I want to pay my fees in USD" was an objection I had to worry about. Today, not so much.
