👀 @265Dots just outlined its 3 core business lines and together they could meaningfully strengthen @Polkadot's institutional foundation. Here’s the overview 👇 1) OTC Strategic Sales👀 Working with @Web3foundation to offer discounted locked DOT to long-term partners and infrastructure builders. → Brings committed capital without adding market pressure. 2) Luxembourg Fund Platform A regulated base to launch structured products and collaborate with global TradFi institutions. → Creates new pathways for professional investors to access DOT and Polkadot-native assets. 3) Strategic Partnerships Co-developing products like Digital Asset Trusts (DATs) with international financial experts. → Bridges traditional financial structures with Polkadot’s on-chain economy. And looking ahead, 265 plans to expand into options, derivatives, futures, and lending — building out a broader institutional toolkit in 2026. Why this matters for @Polkadot? • More institutional-grade products → easier for funds to participate • Locked DOT sales → stronger long-term holder structure • Regulated infrastructure → better alignment with global financial standards • Structured products → deeper liquidity & more use cases across the ecosystem Step by step, this strengthens Polkadot’s position as a network that institutions can build on — not just speculate on.
