Everybody talks about Internet Capital Markets (ICMs) these days, but many of you may not know that Akshay actually coined the term. 😅
Africa’s largest IPO, made accessible through NectarFi, a SuperteamNG-incubated product, using stablecoins on Solana, is a real-world demonstration of exactly what Akshay is arguing here: that the bigger opportunity isn’t just tokenising widely accessible US stocks like Tesla or Amazon, but solving the distribution problem for underserved capital markets, including Nigerian equities like MTN Nigeria on the NGX and major offerings like the Dangote Refinery IPO.
Tokenisation is the future of capital markets, and products like
@Nectar_finance are already building towards it by connecting African assets to global capital, and African investors to global markets.
my talk from token2049
we don’t need a new way to buy tesla stock

tokenize the long tail
