About Us

Rewiring Wall Street with Ethereum

Finance is stuck in the past. Settlement takes days, capital gets trapped, and institutions are shackled to infrastructure built for the previous century.

That’s where we come in. Developing the next generation of financial infrastructure, we provide trading, settlement, and privacy systems that enable trillions in assets to move onchain.

Our Mission

Our Story

Ethereum had its first great transformation with the Merge, proving it could secure trillions in value and serve as the foundation for global markets. As institutional appetite has surged, one thing was missing: a dedicated team to help Wall Street make use of Ethereum’s potential.

That’s why we created Etherealize. Backed by leaders across both Wall Street and Web3, we mobilized to seize this once-in-a-generation opportunity.

From the start, we’ve been on the front lines:

Meeting with banks, asset managers, sovereigns, and hedge funds to bring Ethereum into the boardroom.

Expanding Ethereum’s access to tokenized assets and new L2 networks.

Representing Ethereum in Washington — from the Treasury and SEC to Congress and the White House.

Establishing Ethereum’s institutional reputation as the most secure, decentralized, and credible foundation for global finance.

Today, Etherealize is more than a voice for Ethereum.

The race to rewire global finance has begun. Etherealize is here to lead it.

Our vision is simple:

Ethereum will become the backbone of global finance.

Trillions of dollars in assets will be tokenized and settled onchain: faster, safer, and more resilient than today’s outdated rails.

Etherealize is building the infrastructure to make this future not just possible, but inevitable.
