OKX Ventures has announced a strategic investment in STBL, a next-generation stablecoin and yield infrastructure provider. STBL will partner with Hamilton Lane (Nasdaq: HLNE) and Securitize to launch a real-world-asset-backed stablecoin on X Layer, OKX's EVM-compatible Layer-2 blockchain.
Dual-Token Architecture and SCOPE Fund Backing
The stablecoin is backed through a feeder fund to Hamilton Lane's Senior Credit Opportunities Fund (SCOPE), with assets issued and tokenized via Securitize. This institutional-grade framework enables scalable, regulated issuance. STBL introduces the first Ecosystem-Specific Stablecoin (ESS) on X Layer, using a dual-token design that separates the stable unit from yield-generating collateral, allowing liquid settlement while maintaining compliant yield management.
X Layer provides access to thousands of tokens, deep liquidity, and low-cost bridging within the OKX ecosystem. STBL's architecture turns tokenized assets into functional building blocks that can be settled, composed, and used across financial applications, rather than held passively.
OKX Ventures: Accelerating RWA Ecosystem Maturity
Jeff Ren, founder of OKX Ventures, stated: "Working with STBL and Hamilton Lane accelerates the development of a mature RWA ecosystem, strengthening capital efficiency across the network." OKX Ventures' investment supports STBL's mission to build Money-as-a-Service infrastructure, enabling ecosystems to issue branded stablecoins backed by RWAs.
Securitize's framework ensures institutional private credit can be embedded directly into on-chain money flows. The collaboration provides real utility for tokenized assets, rather than simple representation.
From Passive Holdings to Active Financial Blocks
The dual-token design protects stablecoin holders from direct investment risk while enabling settlement and liquidity use. This approach could set a new standard for RWA-backed stablecoins, combining transparency, efficiency, and yield management within a regulated framework.
Through this initiative, OKX Ventures, STBL, Hamilton Lane, and Securitize aim to bridge traditional market structures with blockchain technology, supporting compliant, functional, and high-utility financial products on-chain.
