ONFI 100 - The World’s Leading Onchain Finance Leaders
ONFI 100 ® Not the biggest crypto companies. The companies building the future of finance onchain.
About ONFI 100 ® The World’s Leading Onchain Finance Companies, Platforms & Networks
ONFI 100 is an independent ranking recognising the companies, financial institutions, platforms and technology leaders shaping the future of onchain finance.
A dedicated global ranking and benchmark for the organisations building onchain finance.
A ranking of the 100 organisations most influential in the transition of financial services onto blockchain infrastructure.
Finance is changing and moving onchain.
Traditional financial assets, payments, markets, lending and investment are increasingly moving onto blockchain infrastructure. At the same time, crypto native technology is becoming increasingly integrated with the global financial system.
Blockchain is the technology that enables money and financial assets to move securely on a shared digital network.
We believe this convergence represents one of the most significant developments in finance for a generation.
ONFI 100 exists to identify the organisations leading that Onchain Finance transformation.
What is Onchain Finance?
The next generation of financial markets, built on the blockchain.
Onchain finance is the use of blockchain infrastructure to create, move, manage and settle financial assets and transactions.
It extends beyond traditional crypto and DeFi to encompass areas such as tokenised assets, stablecoins, digital payments, onchain capital markets, lending, investment, wealth management, custody, settlement and financial infrastructure.
Our focus is therefore not simply on the biggest crypto companies.
We look at the organisations that are helping to build the next generation of financial markets and financial services onchain.
The Building Blocks of Onchain
1. Finance Tokenised Assets
Funds, bonds, securities, credit, deposits and other real world financial assets can be represented as digital tokens on a blockchain. This can make ownership, transfer, administration and reporting more efficient, while retaining the legal, regulatory and custody structures required by financial markets.
2. Digital Money
Stablecoins and tokenised deposits enable value to move onchain. They can be used for payments, settlement, collateral and treasury activity, providing a digital form of money that can operate across blockchain-based financial services and markets.
3. Onchain Settlement
Onchain settlement allows payment and ownership to update through a shared digital record. This can reduce reconciliation, manual processing and settlement delays — with the potential for transactions to be completed more quickly, transparently and continuously.
From Traditional Finance to Onchain Finance
Traditional finance is built around banks, brokers, exchanges, custodians, clearing systems and multiple separate databases.
Onchain finance introduces a shared digital infrastructure where assets, money and financial rules can interact more directly. A tokenised fund can be issued onchain, purchased using digital money and settled through programmable rules — while still operating within appropriate compliance, identity, custody and legal frameworks.
Onchain Finance Is Not Just Crypto
Crypto often refers to digital assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum and other blockchain based tokens.
Onchain finance is broader. It includes the financial infrastructure, institutional workflows and regulated products moving onto blockchain rails — including tokenised investment funds, stablecoins, tokenised deposits, payments, lending, trading, custody, settlement and market infrastructure.
In simple terms:
Crypto is digital assets.
Onchain finance is finance moving onchain.
The ONFI 100
Each quarter, ONFI 100 identifies 100 of the world’s leading participants in onchain finance.
Our universe can include global banks, asset managers, fintech companies, payment providers, exchanges, blockchain networks, tokenisation platforms, stablecoin companies, financial infrastructure providers and innovative onchain protocols.
We believe the future of finance will not belong exclusively to traditional financial institutions or crypto native companies.
It will be shaped by the organisations that successfully bring the two worlds together.
Independent. Evidence led. Global.
ONFI 100 is designed to provide a clear and accessible view of a rapidly evolving industry.
Our rankings are based on defined criteria and publicly available evidence, rather than popularity or market size alone.
We consider factors including scale, growth, onchain adoption, institutional adoption, innovation, financial significance, liquidity and infrastructure impact.
Our philosophy is simple:
Quality over size.
Evidence over opinion.
Rules over emotion.
More than a ranking
ONFI 100 is intended to become a reference point for the global onchain finance industry — helping investors, financial professionals, businesses, entrepreneurs and the wider public understand the companies and technologies shaping its development.
As financial activity increasingly moves onchain, we aim to provide an independent lens on who is leading the transformation, where it is happening and what comes next.

Why Onchain Finance Matters
Why Onchain Finance Matters
Traditional financial markets are built around multiple systems, intermediaries, databases and settlement processes.
OnFi applies blockchain technology to the wider financial system - not just crypto native markets.
It includes tokenised money market funds, bonds, private credit, deposits, stablecoins, payments, collateral, securities, fund units and other real world financial assets. These assets can be issued, transferred, administered and settled using blockchain networks and programmable rules.
OnFi often retains the elements institutions need: verified identity, compliance controls, regulated custody, legal ownership records, reporting and risk management. The goal is not necessarily to remove every intermediary; it is to make financial markets more efficient, transparent, interoperable and programmable.
Blockchain technology introduces a different model.
Assets and transactions can be represented on shared digital ledgers, financial logic can be programmed into smart contracts, and settlement can increasingly occur directly between digital assets and digital money.
This creates the potential for:
24/7 financial markets
Markets and financial infrastructure that can operate continuously.
Faster settlement
Transactions can move towards near real-time and atomic settlement.
Greater transparency
Shared ledgers can provide a common, verifiable record of activity.
Programmable finance
Financial rules, payments, distributions and collateral management can increasingly be automated.
Lower friction
Blockchain infrastructure has the potential to reduce reconciliation, intermediaries and operational complexity.
Global financial infrastructure
Onchain rails can connect financial assets, money and markets across borders.
The Evolution of Finance - Comparing TradFi (Traditional Finance), DeFi (Decentrslised Finance) and OnFi (Onchain Finance)
Finance is evolving from traditional, institution-led systems toward programmable, blockchain-based infrastructure. TradFi, DeFi and OnFi represent three distinct models - each with a different approach to assets, access, trust and settlement.
Traditional Finance
Traditional Finance, or TradFi, is the established financial system of banks, asset managers, insurers, brokers, exchanges, custodians and payment networks.
It is built around regulated institutions, account-based access and long standing legal protections. TradFi manages the vast majority of global financial activity, but its infrastructure can be fragmented, costly and slow to move assets between organisations, markets and borders.
Decentralised Finance
Decentralised Finance, or DeFi, uses blockchain networks and smart contracts to provide financial services directly through code.
Users can typically access DeFi through a digital wallet rather than a conventional bank account. Its strengths are open access, transparent rules, programmable transactions and around the clock markets - but it has often been centred on crypto native assets and can carry smart-contract, liquidity and user-protection risks.
Onchain Finance
Onchain Finance, or OnFi, brings financial assets, transactions and market infrastructure onto blockchain rails.
It extends beyond crypto native markets to include tokenised funds, bonds, private credit, deposits, stablecoins, payments, collateral and other real-world financial assets. OnFi aims to combine blockchain efficiency—faster settlement, transparency and programmability - with the safeguards institutions require, including identity verification, compliance, regulated custody, reporting and legal ownership.
Where They Converge
TradFi provides the assets, institutions and regulatory foundations.
DeFi demonstrates the potential of open, composable financial technology.
OnFi brings these worlds together by enabling real financial products and infrastructure to operate onchain.
TradFi is finance as it has operated. DeFi is finance rebuilt as open code. OnFi is finance moving onchain.
ONFI 100 ® SIGNAL Score
The Ranking Methodology Behind ONFI 100
The ONFI SIGNAL Score ® is the proprietary scoring framework used to assess the organisations considered for the
ONFI 100 — The World’s Leading Onchain Finance Companies.
The methodology is designed to balance financial strength today with the ability to shape finance tomorrow.
25% Scale
20% Institutional Adoption
20% Growth
15% Network Activity
10% Access to Liquidity
10% Leadership in Innovation
The principle is simple:
Quality over size.
Onchain relevance over hype.
Evidence over opinion.
The highest scoring organisations form the ONFI 100 — The World’s Leading Onchain Finance Companies, Platforms and Networks.
It is designed to measure not simply how large an organisation is today, but how significant it is to the development and adoption of onchain finance.
The ONFI SIGNAL Score combines Scale, Institutional Adoption, Growth, Network Activity, Access to Liquidity and Leadership in Innovation to produce a score out of 100.
Our approach is designed to identify organisations that are not only participating in the evolution of finance, but helping to shape it.
ONFI SIGNAL Score ® Rating Bands
ONFI SIGNAL Score ® asks: Which organisations are meaningfully advancing onchain finance?
The ONFI SIGNAL Score ® brings together six key signals into one clear, comparable score—revealing which organisations are making the most meaningful contribution to the growth of onchain finance. By assessing scale, institutional adoption, growth, network onchain activity, access to liquidity, and leadership in innovation and resilience, the score moves beyond headline announcements to identify real world progress.
Each organisation receives a 0–100 ONFI SIGNAL Score ® and a rating band, from Early Signal to Leading Signal, making it easier to understand its current strength, momentum and influence in the transition of financial services onto blockchain infrastructure.
80–100 — Leading Signal
Exceptional scale, verified onchain activity and durable leadership.
70–79 — Established Signal
Credible, influential and well-rounded participant.
60–69 — Emerging Signal
Clear strengths with growing onchain relevance.
50–59 — Developing Signal
Demonstrable participation with further proof of maturity needed.
Below 50 — Early Signal
Early stage or limited evidence participant.
The ONFI SIGNAL Score ® combines Scale, Institutional Adoption, Growth, Network Activity, Access to Liquidity and Leadership in Innovation to produce a score out of 100.
ONFI SIGNAL Score ®
Six signals. One score.
The evidence led scoring framework behind ONFI 100.
Six signals measure the factors that matter most to the development of onchain finance:
Scale. Institutional Adoption. Growth. Network Activity. Access to Liquidity. Leadership in Innovation.
Together, they produce a single ONFI SIGNAL Score ® from 0–100, providing a consistent way to assess organisations operating across the rapidly developing onchain financial system.
1 — Scale
25%
Scale is the largest component of the ONFI SIGNAL Score.
We assess an organisation’s overall financial significance and market presence, considering factors such as assets, revenues, transaction volumes, users, market value, capital deployed and the scale of financial activity it supports.
Scale is an important indicator of market influence, resilience and ability to shape the future of onchain finance. However, size alone does not determine an organisation’s ONFI ranking.
Smaller organisations can achieve a strong score where they demonstrate substantial adoption, growth, innovation or contribution to onchain financial infrastructure.
2 — Institutional Adoption
20%
Institutional adoption measures an organisation’s relevance to established financial markets and real-world financial infrastructure.
We assess the extent to which an organisation is adopted, integrated, supported or used by banks, asset managers, payment companies, insurers, corporates, governments and other institutional participants.
Relevant evidence can include institutional customers, strategic partnerships, integrations, regulated products, enterprise deployments, asset issuance, payment use cases and real-world transaction activity.
Institutional adoption is a key indicator that onchain finance is progressing beyond experimentation and becoming part of mainstream finance.
3 — Growth
20%
Growth measures how quickly and sustainably an organisation is expanding its position within the onchain financial ecosystem.
We consider growth in areas such as users, customers, assets, transaction volumes, revenues, market share, product adoption, geographic reach and institutional participation.
The ONFI SIGNAL Score prioritises sustained, meaningful progress rather than short term spikes, promotional activity or market driven fluctuations.
Strong growth indicates that an organisation is building momentum, attracting demand and strengthening its long-term relevance to onchain finance.
4 — Network Activity
15%
Network activity measures the scale and importance of financial activity taking place onchain.
We assess the activity that an organisation conducts, facilitates or enables through blockchain networks. Depending on the organisation, this may include tokenised assets, stablecoins, payments, trading, lending, staking, settlement, custody, asset transfers and other onchain financial transactions.
We focus on meaningful activity rather than raw transaction counts alone. High volumes of low-value or non-financial activity may carry less weight than activity linked to genuine financial use, asset movement, settlement or economic value.
Greater meaningful network activity can indicate a stronger contribution to the development and use of onchain financial infrastructure.
5 — Access to Liquidity
10%
Access to liquidity measures how effectively an organisation, its users or its assets can access deep, reliable and efficient financial markets.
We assess factors such as trading liquidity, market depth, available counterparties, settlement capacity, exchange access, interoperability, redemption mechanisms and the ability to move financial assets efficiently.
For infrastructure providers, this may include the liquidity their networks, products or services enable for others. For asset issuers and platforms, it may include the quality, depth and accessibility of markets for their products.
Strong access to liquidity improves usability, market efficiency and resilience across onchain finance.
6 — Leadership in Innovation
10%
Leadership in innovation measures an organisation’s contribution to advancing onchain finance through products, infrastructure, technology, standards or new financial models.
We consider whether an organisation is creating meaningful improvements in how financial assets are issued, traded, transferred, managed, secured or settled.
This can include leadership in tokenisation, stablecoins, payments, interoperability, privacy, compliance technology, smart-contract infrastructure, custody, identity, market structure or other core areas of OnFi.
Innovation is assessed on substance, execution and potential impact — not novelty alone.
How the ONFI SIGNAL Score Works
The six signals combine to produce the ONFI SIGNAL Score, a score between 0 and 100.
The weighting reflects our view that the leading organisations in onchain finance should demonstrate a combination of financial significance, genuine onchain activity, growth, institutional adoption and long-term capability.
25% Scale
20% Institutional Adoption
20% Growth
15% Network Activity
10% Access to Liquidity
10% Leadership in Innovation
The resulting score provides a consistent framework for comparing organisations across different areas of onchain finance.
A global bank, stablecoin issuer, tokenisation platform, blockchain network or emerging financial technology company may operate in very different markets — but each can be assessed against the same fundamental principles.
Measuring the Future of Onchain Finance
The ONFI SIGNAL Score is designed to look beyond traditional measures of size and popularity.
Our objective is to identify the organisations that matter most to the transition of financial activity onto blockchain infrastructure.
Quality over size.
Evidence over opinion.
Rules over emotion.
ONFI SIGNAL Score
The methodology behind ONFI 100.
ONFI 100 ® The 10 ONFI 100 Categories
The ONFI 100 is organised across ten categories representing the key components of the emerging onchain financial ecosystem.
1. ONFI Banking
Banks and banking infrastructure moving financial activity onchain.
Traditional banking is beginning to move onto blockchain-based infrastructure.
ONFI Banking recognises banks and banking infrastructure providers developing or adopting onchain financial services, including tokenised deposits, digital assets, blockchain settlement, custody and onchain banking infrastructure.
Examples: banks, digital banks, banking platforms and financial institutions.
2. ONFI Markets
Exchanges, brokers and trading infrastructure.
Financial markets are increasingly becoming programmable and available through blockchain-based infrastructure.
ONFI Markets recognises exchanges, brokers, trading platforms and market infrastructure enabling the issuance, trading, clearing and settlement of financial assets onchain.
Examples: digital asset exchanges, tokenised securities platforms, brokers and trading infrastructure.
3. ONFI Assets
Tokenised securities, funds, commodities and other real world assets.
Tokenisation brings traditional financial and real-world assets onto blockchain networks.
ONFI Assets recognises the companies and platforms creating, managing and distributing tokenised securities, funds, bonds, commodities, real estate and other real-world assets.
Examples: tokenisation platforms, asset managers and issuers of tokenised financial products.
4. ONFI Money
Stablecoins, tokenised deposits and digital money.
Money itself is becoming programmable.
ONFI Money covers the organisations developing the next generation of digital money, including stablecoins, tokenised bank deposits and other blockchain-based forms of money.
These technologies have the potential to transform how money is issued, transferred and settled globally.
Examples: stablecoin issuers, digital-money platforms and tokenised-deposit providers.
5. ONFI Payments
Payments and settlement.
Blockchain infrastructure can enable money and financial assets to move continuously across borders and between counterparties.
ONFI Payments recognises companies developing onchain payment, settlement and transaction infrastructure for consumers, businesses and financial institutions.
Examples: payment networks, payment providers, stablecoin payment platforms and settlement infrastructure.
6. ONFI Wealth
Asset managers, wealth platforms and investment infrastructure.
The investment industry is increasingly exploring how blockchain technology can improve access, distribution, ownership and settlement.
ONFI Wealth recognises asset managers, wealth platforms and investment infrastructure providers bringing investment and wealth management onchain.
Examples: asset managers, investment platforms, fund providers and digital wealth infrastructure.
7. ONFI Credit
Lending, private credit and collateral.
Credit is one of the fundamental building blocks of finance.
ONFI Credit recognises companies and platforms using blockchain infrastructure to create new forms of lending, borrowing, private credit, collateral management and credit markets.
Examples: onchain lending platforms, private-credit networks and collateral infrastructure.
8. ONFI Infrastructure
Custody, compliance, data, APIs and financial infrastructure.
The transition to onchain finance requires an entirely new layer of financial infrastructure.
ONFI Infrastructure recognises the companies providing the technology, security and services that allow institutions and financial markets to operate safely and efficiently onchain.
Examples: custody, compliance, blockchain analytics, APIs, data providers, security and institutional infrastructure.
9. ONFI Networks
Blockchain networks providing financial rails.
Onchain finance requires reliable networks on which financial assets and transactions can operate.
ONFI Networks recognises blockchain networks and protocols providing the underlying rails for financial activity, including the issuance, movement, trading and settlement of onchain assets.
Examples: public blockchains, financial networks and specialised blockchain infrastructure.
10. ONFI Innovators
Emerging companies transforming financial markets.
The future of onchain finance will not be built exclusively by today’s largest financial institutions.
ONFI Innovators recognises emerging companies, platforms and technologies introducing new ideas, products and business models that could fundamentally change how financial markets operate.
This category provides a place for the next generation of OnFi leaders to emerge.
Beyond Crypto
The ONFI 100 is deliberately different from a traditional crypto ranking
We believe the defining question is not:
“How important is this company to crypto?”
It is:
“How important is this organisation to the future of finance onchain?”
That distinction allows the ONFI 100 to bring together banks, asset managers, fintechs, payment companies, exchanges, blockchain networks, stablecoin issuers, tokenisation platforms and emerging innovators within one global framework.
The result is a broader view of the financial transformation taking place as traditional finance and blockchain technology converge.
ONFI 100 - Potential Constituent's by Category
ONFI 100 — Potential Companies by Category
1. ONFI Banking
Banks and banking infrastructure moving financial activity onchain.
Potential candidates include:
- JPMorgan Chase / Kinexys
- HSBC
- Standard Chartered
- Citi
- Bank of America
- BNY
- Societe Generale
- UBS
- ANZ
- Deutsche Bank
JPMorgan’s Kinexys, for example, has become a significant institutional onchain money operation, while HSBC and Standard Chartered are developing tokenised-deposit infrastructure.
2. ONFI Markets
Exchanges, brokers and trading infrastructure.
Potential candidates include:
- Coinbase
- Kraken
- Robinhood
- Nasdaq
- NYSE / ICE
- CME Group
- Bullish
- Uniswap
- Hyperliquid
- dYdX
This category is particularly interesting because traditional exchanges and crypto native markets are beginning to converge. Nasdaq’s recent $100m investment in Kraken’s parent specifically highlighted infrastructure for tokenised-equity trading.
3. ONFI Assets
Tokenised securities, funds, commodities and other real-world assets.
Potential candidates include:
- BlackRock
- Franklin Templeton
- Ondo Finance
- Securitize
- Figure
- WisdomTree
- CMC Marklets/StrikeX
- Superstate
- Centrifuge
- Apex Group / Tokeny
This could become one of the most important ONFI categories. Franklin Templeton’s tokenised money market fund and Securitize’s role in BlackRock’s BUIDL are examples of traditional assets moving onto blockchain infrastructure.
4. ONFI Money
Stablecoins, tokenised deposits and digital money.
Potential candidates include:
- Circle
- Tether
- Paxos
- Ripple
- PayPal
- Ethena
- Sky
- Societe Generale
- JPMorgan
- First Digital
This category could arguably become the largest single battleground in OnFi, because stablecoins and tokenised deposits are becoming financial infrastructure rather than simply crypto assets. McKinsey describes an emerging monetary stack incorporating stablecoins, tokenised bank deposits and central bank money.
5. ONFI Payments
Payments and settlement.
Potential candidates include:
- Visa
- Mastercard
- PayPal
- Stripe
- Circle
- Ripple
- Coinbase
- The Clearing House
- BVNK
- Bridge
Visa, Mastercard and Circle are particularly interesting because they are building bridges between existing payment networks and blockchain based settlement. The Clearing House and major banks are also developing infrastructure for tokenised commercial bank money to move across onchain and traditional rails.
6. ONFI Wealth
Asset managers, wealth platforms and investment infrastructure.
Potential candidates include:
- BlackRock
- Fidelity
- Franklin Templeton
- State Street
- Invesco
- WisdomTree
- VanEck
- JPMorgan Asset Management
- 21Shares
- Grayscale
This category gives ONFI 100 an important connection to the enormous global asset management industry.
7. ONFI Credit
Lending, private credit and collateral.
Potential candidates include:
- Aave
- Maple Finance
- Morpho
- Figure
- Centrifuge
- Goldfinch
- Clearpool
- Compound
- Sky
- TrueFi
This category should cover both institutional private credit and genuinely onchain lending. Figure, for example, has originated more than $20bn in loans through Provenance Blockchain, demonstrating how substantial onchain credit can become.
8. ONFI Infrastructure
Custody, compliance, data, APIs and financial infrastructure.
Potential candidates include:
- Chainlink
- Fireblocks
- BitGo
- Anchorage Digital
- Coinbase
- Ripple
- Alchemy
- Privy
- Chainalysis
- Copper
This could be one of the most strategically important categories because infrastructure providers may not be consumer-facing, but they can become the plumbing of onchain finance.
Chainlink, for example, is already involved in institutional interoperability initiatives with organisations including Swift, UBS, Mastercard and DTCC.
9. ONFI Networks
Blockchain networks providing financial rails.
Potential candidates include:
- Ethereum
- Solana
- Avalanche
- XRP Ledger
- Stellar
- Polygon
- Base
- Arbitrum
- BNB Chain
- Sui
The important distinction here is that ONFI Networks would not simply rank the “best blockchains”. It would assess which networks are becoming important financial rails for payments, tokenisation, stablecoins, trading and settlement.
10. ONFI Innovators
Emerging companies transforming financial markets.
Potential candidates include:
- Ondo Finance
- Securitize
- Plume
- Ethena
- Figure
- Superstate
- Centrifuge
- Morpho
- Jia
- Mesh
Understanding the ONFI 100 ®
The ONFI 100 ® is the annual benchmark recognising the world’s leading onchain finance leaders - these are companies, platforms and networks building the future of finance onchain.
Each onchain finance company, platform & network is assessed using the ONFI SIGNAL Score ® - a transparent, evidence led framework designed to measure financial significance, onchain activity, growth, institutional adoption, liquidity, innovation and governance.
The result is a clear way to understand not only who is included in the ONFI 100, but why they matter.
ONFI SIGNAL Score ®
The ONFI SIGNAL Score ® is our proprietary score out of 100.
It assesses each onchain finance organisation against the factors most important to the development of onchain finance:
Scale — 25%
Institutional Adoption — 20%
Growth — 20%
Network Activity — 15%
Access to Liquidity — 10%
Leadership in Innovation — 10%
The higher the ONFI SIGNAL Score, the stronger an onchain finance leaders overall contribution to the transition of financial activity onto blockchain infrastructure.
ONFI Rank
The ONFI Rank shows an onchain finance organisation’s position relative to its peers.
An onchain finance leader with an ONFI Rank of #1 is the highest ranked participant in the overall ONFI 100 universe.
Rankings can also be shown within each specialist category, including ONFI Banking, ONFI Markets, ONFI Assets, ONFI Money and ONFI Infrastructure.
Example
- ONFI Rank: #9 out of 100
- ONFI SIGNAL Score: 76.8 out of 100
- Category:ONFI Assets
- ONFI 100 Status: Constituent
This provides a simple, consistent way to compare onchain finance organisations operating across different parts of the emerging financial system.
Why it works
ONFI Rank can apply across the overall table, individual 10 categories, live updates and historic performance:
• Overall ONFI Rank: #9 out of 100
• ONFI Assets Rank: #2 out of 10
• ONFI Money Rank: #5 out of 10
• 2026 ONFI Rank: Up 14 places
• Top 10 by ONFI Rank
• ONFI Rank methodology
It’s not a popularity list, but an evidence led assessment of which organisations matter to the future of finance onchain.
The Difference
ONFI SIGNAL Score ® measures the strength of an onchain finance company, platform or network
ONFI Rank shows its position in the table.
ONFI 100 ® is the benchmark of the 100 onchain finance companies, platforms & networks selected as leaders in onchain finance.
Together, they provide a clearer picture of the onchain finance leaders shaping the future of money, markets and financial infrastructure onchain.
Our Approach
The ONFI 100 is not simply a list of the biggest crypto companies.
We look beyond market size and popularity to identify the onchain finance leaders creating meaningful financial activity on blockchain infrastructure — from tokenised assets and stablecoins to payments, markets, lending, custody, settlement and financial networks.
Quality over size.
Evidence over opinion.
Rules over emotion.
What the method is not
• Not a market cap ranking.
• Not “how important is this firm to crypto?”
• The intended question is: how important is this company, platform or network to the future of onchain finance?
That is why banks (JPMorgan, Revolut, HSBC), asset managers (BlackRock, Franklin Templeton), payment networks (Visa, Mastercard), stablecoin issuers (Circle, Tether), and crypto native platforms can sit in the same framework.
