Amina Becomes First Bank to Join EU’s Blockchain Securities Market
Swiss crypto bank Amina has entered the EU's regulated blockchain securities market as the first banking participant, marking a pivotal moment in the convergence of traditional finance and digital assets. The bank joins platform 21X as a listing sponsor, signaling growing institutional acceptance of tokenized securities.
The move coincides with the EU's DLT pilot program, launched in 2023 to test blockchain-based trading and settlements. While progress has been measured, Amina's participation could accelerate interoperability between legacy systems and emerging digital markets.
Amina partners with 21X and Tokeny to provide enterprises with end-to-end solutions for issuing and managing tokenized assets. This development reflects broader trends of financial institutions investing in blockchain infrastructure amid increasing demand for regulated on-chain securities.
