Hex Trust CPO Giorgia Pellizzari explores Bitcoin’s evolution into a yield-bearing asset, the strategic launch of wrapped XRP, and the path to scaling RWA tokenization. Giorgia Pellizzari, Chief Product Officer at Hex Trust, joined CoinDesk Live at Consensus Hong Kong to provide a deep dive into the institutional shifts shaping the digital asset landscape. Looking back on 2025 as the “Year of Bitcoin,” she explains how the launch of new primitives like the Babylon Protocol transformed Bitcoin from a “lazy asset” into a productive, return-bearing tool for institutions. The conversation highlights the issuance of Wrapped XRP (wXRP) by Hex Trust. Pellizzari explains how this regulated 1:1 backed asset bridges the gap between the XRP Ledger and fast DeFi ecosystems such as Solana, Ethereum and Optimism. Pellizzari also offers a look at the future of Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization, citing the DTCC’s move to tokenize hundreds of billions of dollars as a massive structural catalyst. She argues that while the infrastructure is ready, the missing piece remains secondary market liquidity and regulatory comfort. – This episode was presented live by Jennifer Sanasie and Will Foxley at Consensus Hong Kong 2026, presented by Hex Trust.
