RWAs are starting to look more like volatile products

TradFi assets moving onto crypto exchanges makes me think more about trading hours. If stocks, ETFs, RWAs, or pre-IPO exposure become tradable on crypto rails, the biggest change may be that TradFi starts behaving more like crypto: always open, repricing, tempting you to react.
