COINOTAG News reports that EquiLend, a leading securities lending infrastructure firm managing a roughly $40 trillion lendable pool, has struck a strategic minority stake in Digital Prime Technologies, a regulated crypto-lending provider. The deal size was not disclosed. The investment signals a strategic push to capture value in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and the wider digital asset market, anchored by demand for a compliant, transparent, and governable workflow that bridges traditional finance and crypto assets.

Under the agreement, the teams will leverage Digital Prime’s Tokenet institutional lending network to extend multi-custodian and multi-collateral lifecycle coverage, alongside risk exposure monitoring and institutional-grade reporting. Future phases target the integration of compliance stablecoins as collateral and the rollout of additional tokenized financial instruments, enhancing cross-asset liquidity and reporting fidelity.
