Ever heard of a GSIB? It's short for Global Systemically Important Bank—basically, these are the financial giants so massive that if one collapses, it could spark a worldwide crisis.



Right now, there are exactly 29 institutions with this designation across the globe.

Here's where it gets interesting: one of the biggest GSIBs is now moving assets on-chain through tokenization, and they've chosen a particular high-performance blockchain as their infrastructure.

This isn't some experimental pilot anymore. Major institutions are picking their on-chain rails, and we're watching legacy finance slowly migrate to crypto-native infrastructure. The trend is clear—traditional banking giants are no longer testing the waters. They're diving in, and their choice of settlement layer tells you everything about where institutional capital is heading.

Big banks are really going on-chain now. Traditional finance is truly out of options. Wall Street giants have finally figured it out—rather than resisting, it's better to jump in directly. Wait, out of the 29 GSIBs, how many have already hopped on board? The information feels too vague. I just want to know which chain they’ve chosen, as it relates to real money. The migration of big traditional financial players to the blockchain is the real market signal, not those so-called institutional entry news. In plain terms, the big players have finally given in—cryptocurrency is the winner. Once this trend gets started, retail investors better seize the opportunity.

Are the big banks all going on-chain now? This is really happening, not just crypto circle self-congratulation. Wait, are the biggest ones among the 29 players engaging in tokenization? It feels like the rules are about to change. Traditional finance is investing so aggressively, and us retail investors are still trying to figure it out, haha. It's not just a pilot; real money is being poured in. This time, it's different. Just waiting to see which blockchain the banks will choose. Once that happens, it will probably take off.

Wow, all 29 GSIBs are starting to play with chains? Traditional finance is really panicking now. Bank giants are no longer hesitant, going all in on tokenization directly. What does this mean? It shows that institutional capital has already seen through it. I'm optimistic about this migration. It's a trend that can't be stopped.

Big fish are starting to go on the chain, and the gameplay is about to change. Honestly, if GSIBs all start moving onto the chain, how much space will we retail investors have to give up? It's not just a pilot anymore; it's really happening. This is the real signal of institutional entry; all those previous signs were just smoke screens.

The giants really can't hold back anymore, this time they're serious about going on-chain. The choice of on-chain settlement layers reveals who is throwing money around. GSIBs are no longer pretending to be reserved; this is the real signal. The banking system will also start adopting on-chain solutions, it's getting competitive. Let's wait and see which chain gets selected, this is the vote of the institutions. It seems the migration of traditional finance has only just begun. This is not a trial; it's the real deal. This time, it's different.

Big banks are really starting to go on-chain, this is not a joke... Traditional finance must be pushed, or is it truly becoming attractive?

The Financial Museum is under construction, and the migration of 29 GSIBs is like relocating a mural—this time, it's serious.

ngl the real question is which chain they picked and what the bridge fees look like... 29 GSIBs migrating to one settlement layer sounds cool until you realize they'll probably create their own private zones and we're back to paying 50 gwei for table scraps lmaooo
