VIENNA, January 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit EUthe European arm of Bybit and a MiCAR-licensed crypto asset service provider headquartered in Vienna, made its unDavos debut on January 20, 2026. In the Swiss Alps, Georg Harer, co-CEO of Bybit EU, took part in an expert panel discussion on crypto cybercrime and a roundtable discussion on the future of RWA (real-world asset) tokenization.

RWA tokenization: from concept to commercialization

The roundtable event, titled “Tokenization as the Backbone of the Next Generation Financial Infrastructure,” brought together policymakers, regulators and industry leaders to explore how tokenization can serve as a foundational layer for the next generation of global financial systems. The discussions focused on advancing tokenization from concept to implementation, addressing regulatory frameworks and exploring how blockchain-based infrastructure can reshape traditional financial markets.

The discussion took place amid growing momentum for tokenization of real-world assets. With key infrastructure in place, scalable commercialization faces persistent barriers such as regulatory uncertainty and outdated regulatory frameworks rooted in old technology and financial models. Industry players and builders also struggle with fragmentation and limited interoperability.

“It has been invaluable to see the industry come together at a time when we at Bybit EU are trying to build both the scalable infrastructure and necessary guardrails for the digital asset class,” said Georg Harer, co-CEO of Bybit EU. “The exchange with regulators, peers and innovators from around the world reinforced the recognition that tokenization is quickly becoming a critical part of the financial infrastructure that will serve the next generation.”

Strengthening defenses against next-generation crypto crime

Harer also joined a panel on financial crime, where he and other experts explored how exchanges can combat industrialized crypto fraud as bad actors move toward more organized and creative patterns, deploying new tools and abusing technology for fraudulent purposes. He highlighted Bybit EU’s proactive measures to maintain user security and compliance with the MiCAR and EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives.

The discussion underscored how emerging technology is transforming threat vectors, from deepfake-based impersonation to automated phishing networks. Citing the issue of effective identification as an example, Harer shared his optimism that a unified and streamlined European identity verification framework would bring greater efficiency, comfort and security. He emphasized that tackling the next generation of financial crime requires not only advanced detection tools, but also transparency, shared intelligence and an industry-wide commitment to ethical innovation.
