The "Internet Capital Markets" narrative drives value to RWA and Payment protocols. "What we really do care about is... are we bringing the best payment products... or we bring real world assets, tokenized money market funds... giving them access to yield that are stable, secure, regulated." Solana's strategic "North Star" in APAC is not speculative crypto-native assets, but rather tokenizing traditional finance (Treasuries, Yield). This implies structural demand for RWA protocols and stablecoin issuers building on Solana, as the Foundation actively pushes these products to regulators and institutions. LONG the RWA and Stablecoin sectors (specifically those integrated with Solana) as they are the chosen vehicle for this "Internet Capital Markets" vision. Regulatory crackdowns in APAC jurisdictions preventing the distribution of tokenized US securities.

Infrastructure upgrade (Fire Dancer) acts as the primary catalyst for institutional capacity. "Fire Dance is top of mind... once that happens I think you'll see quite a big momentum and uptake in terms of usage developers builders." Fire Dancer is a new validator client that theoretically increases Solana's throughput significantly. The Head of APAC explicitly links this technical upgrade to the next wave of adoption. If Solana is to handle "Wall Street" volume (as discussed regarding Scaramucci's comments), this infrastructure upgrade is the necessary condition for that repricing. LONG SOL as the direct beneficiary of the Fire Dancer upgrade and subsequent institutional capacity. Technical delays in Fire Dancer implementation or failure to deliver promised throughput speeds.
