These products bridge global financial markets with the Bitcoin network, the world’s most decentralized system. They provide seamless and unrestricted access to capital markets, catering to both retail and institutional investors.

“Bitcoin isn’t just digital gold — it’s the foundational layer of future capital markets. With unparalleled security, decentralisation, and resilience, Bitcoin provides the ideal infrastructure to democratise access to capital markets for everyone, everywhere,” Hamilton CEO Mohamed Elkasstawi stated.
With RWA frequently cited as one of the key crypto narratives of 2024, many analysts expect that the segment will continue to grow. The market is projected to reach $30 trillion by 2030. Hamilton is positioned to be “in the right place at the right time,” creating a protocol that makes financial products accessible to all, with a particular focus on emerging markets.
