Hex Trust , headquartered in Hong Kong, has announced a partnership with the DeFi credit protocol Clearpool via X. They also shared this news in a blog post on October 8th. Ozean, a platform focused on real-world asset (RWA) yields, claims to operate using the CPOOL token and is backed by Optimism. Impressive Progress Ozean aims to leverage the lending expertise provided by Clearpool alongside the regulated infrastructure and institutional clients offered by Hex Trust to enhance adoption within the RWA ecosystem. Thus far, Clearpool has facilitated over $620 million in loans for firms such as Flow Traders, Wintermute, and Jane Street. Hex Trust is poised to significantly influence Ozean and its development, with more than $5 billion in assets under custody and over 270 institutional clients. Mutual Benefit Certain clients of Hex Trust, including banks, exchanges, funds, and decentralized applications, may tap into the RWA ecosystem. Hex Trust will bring its extensive and expanding client base, along with our advanced technology infrastructure, to elevate Ozean and unlock this trillion-dollar market opportunity, stated Hex Trust CEO Alessio Quaglini. Ozean will also benefit via the rising adoption of USDX, a US dollar-pegged stablecoin launched by Hex Trust in May. USDX has integrated with LayerZero to provide cross-chain liquidity and has partnered with Velodrome as its primary decentralized exchange. At present, the company offers services and products across several countries, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai, and France.
