Figure dropping $700M to tokenize real-world assets — back the blockchain infras

Created

Thesis

Figure's massive $717 million acquisition to put real-world lending on the blockchain shows that major financial players are going all-in on crypto tokenization. This trend requires secure infrastructure, specifically 'oracles' and decentralized finance protocols, to function. Tokens like Chainlink and Aave provide the core plumbing for this shift and stand to benefit as Wall Street adopts this technology.

Strategy approach

Build a rule-based strategy for long LINK and AAVE on the daily (D1) timeframe. Entry: Price is above the 50-day EMA, and the MACD line crosses above the zero line. Exit: 10% profit target is reached, or a 6% trailing stop is activated. Max hold of 14 days.
