Leading European crypto broker Bitpanda has launched a new blockchain called Vision Chain. This is to help European banks and fintech companies issue and settle tokenized assets under EU regulations.
The move shows how traditional finance is slowly moving toward blockchain infrastructure and tokenized financial markets.
Bitpanda designed Vision Chain as a regulated blockchain where banks, fintech firms, and asset managers issue tokenized stocks, funds, and bonds.
The Vision Web3 Foundation built the network, and it runs on Ethereum scaling technology from Optimism.
The network uses euro-denominated stablecoins for transaction fees to avoid crypto price volatility. This makes the system more suitable for banks and financial institutions that need stable and predictable costs.
Vision Chain operates as a Layer-2 blockchain on Ethereum, enabling faster transactions and lower fees while keeping Ethereum security.
Tokenization is becoming one of the biggest trends in finance. Tokenization puts real-world assets like stocks, bonds, and real estate on blockchain, allowing faster and 24/7 trading.
According to a report by Ripple and Boston Consulting Group, the tokenized asset market could grow from about $0.6 trillion today to $18.9 trillion by 2033, growing around 53% per year.
This shows why companies and financial institutions are racing to build blockchain infrastructure for traditional finance.
Bitpanda is not the only company working on this idea. Several financial companies and trading platforms, including Ripple, Robinhood, Coinbase, and many more, are building blockchains specifically for tokenized securities and digital assets.
The goal is simple to move traditional financial markets like stocks, bonds, and funds onto blockchain so trading can happen faster, cheaper, and even outside normal market hours.
Vision Chain is part of Bitpanda’s bigger Web3 strategy, which includes its Vision token, DeFi wallet, and blockchain infrastructure.
“European financial institutions have been ready for tokenization, but the infrastructure has been missing,” said Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad.
If tokenization grows as expected, blockchains like Vision Chain could become the infrastructure behind future financial markets.
Vision Chain is a regulated Layer-2 blockchain by Bitpanda that enables banks and fintechs to issue and trade tokenized assets under EU rules.
It allows institutions to issue stocks, bonds, and funds on blockchain, enabling faster settlement, lower costs, and 24/7 trading access.
The market could grow to $18.9 trillion by 2033, driven by rising demand for blockchain-based financial infrastructure and digital assets.
