Anchorage Supports Tokenized Uranium with Etherlink Custody Expansion
Anchorage Digital Bank has expanded its custody offering to include Etherlink-issued assets on the Tezos ecosystem. This move allows institutional clients to hold tokens such as xU3O8, a token backed by physical uranium exposure, in segregated custody accounts at the federally chartered bank.
The integration of Etherlink's native tokens with Anchorage's regulated custody framework enables clients to support tokenized products that may otherwise require multiple operational layers across different networks. Supported assets include wrapped Tezos (WXTZ), liquid staking token stXTZ, wrapped Ether (WETH), and major stablecoins.
xU3O8 represents ownership exposure to physical uranium without requiring investors to directly handle or store the underlying commodity. Anchorage claims that tokenization can reduce transfer and settlement time from weeks to minutes compared with traditional uranium intermediaries.
