Spain’s prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, has admitted “trust in high-speed rail has been broken” after Wednesday’s train collision that killed at least 69 people, injured more than 100 and prompted a national debate on the safety of the country’s rail network.
Sánchez said Spain was “working tirelessly” to provide information as quickly as possible to the families of the victims – who include people from at least 23 different foreign countries – adding his government was committed to finding what had caused the country’s second deadly train collision this year.
Immigrants at Texas detention facility, protesting against harsh conditions, say they face threats of force-feeding
Members of Congress sent a scathing letter to federal immigration officials this week demanding answers about conditions inside a Texas immigration jail, as detained immigrants on a prolonged hunger strike claim officials are retaliating against them and threatening them with force-feeding.
A group of seven congressional Democrats sent the letter earlier this week to Markwayne Mullin, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secretary, and David Venturella, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director, protesting about the treatment of hunger strikers.
Tokenizing real-world assets like stocks, funds or real estate expands global investor access, but turning an asset into a digital token does not automatically create a functioning market. In a recent discussion, Vladimir Tikhomirov, founder of Theorem, highlighted the critical infrastructure gaps still hindering the full potential of tokenized finance.The primary bottleneck remains liquidity. Without liquid secondary markets, investors risk getting locked into illiquid holdings subject to long redemption windows. True secondary trading is necessary to enable continuous price discovery, allow risk management and narrow spreads.
Furthermore, robust pricing relies on combining initial issuer valuations with active open-market trading.On the settlement side, multi-chain deployment is easily managed via arbitrage, though cross-border regulatory compliance remains complex. On-chain cash equivalents are also shifting toward yield-bearing tokenized US Treasury bills over traditional stablecoins to optimize capital efficiency.Ultimately, on-chain markets will win by offering superior flexibility such as 24/7 trading, composable collateral and custom pairs, provided developers build the necessary lending protocols, exchanges and liquidity foundations.
