This is a great breakdown of where RWAs are actually heading. The point about interoperability being foundational, not optional, really hits, without portable compliance and seamless cross-chain settlement, RWAs just recreate TradFi silos on-chain. Cross-chain identity + messaging feels like the real unlock for institutional-scale DeFi.
