Apex Group Partners with 21X to Pioneer Regulated Tokenized RWA Trading in Europe

Apex Group has cemented its position as a trailblazer in institutional crypto adoption by becoming the first listing sponsor for 21X’s blockchain-based trading system. The partnership creates a regulated gateway for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), marking a significant step in Europe’s fusion of distributed ledger technology with traditional finance.

The collaboration will enable Apex to facilitate listings of tokenized funds and securities on 21X’s upcoming DLT platform, scheduled for launch this spring. "Apex’s role ensures issuers have the support they need," stated 21X CEO Max Heinzle, highlighting the institutional-grade infrastructure being established for digital asset trading.

This development signals growing momentum behind RWAs as blockchain penetrates regulated financial markets. The partnership provides a compliant framework for institutional investors to access digital versions of conventional instruments, potentially accelerating mainstream crypto adoption.
