Securitize Takes Tokenized Hamilton Lane Credit Fund Multichain, Bringing It Closer to DeFi
Real-world asset platform Securitize upgraded its tokenized private credit fund with Hamilton Lane, an investment firm with $956 billion of assets under management and supervision, expanding its reach across multiple blockchains and adding features aimed at decentralized finance (DeFi) users. Introduced in 2023 on Polygon (POL), the Hamilton Lane Senior Credit Opportunities (SCOPE) Fund is now available on Ethereum and Optimism (OP), with blockchain interoperability enabled by Wormhole (W). This means investors can move fund units across chains, unlocking wider participation and liquidity in different DeFi ecosystems. Securitize also added support for daily net asset value (NAV) pricing through RedStone oracles and made the fund instantly accessible through its investor portal. Redemptions can be processed in two ways: on-demand through a built-in liquidity pool capped at 5% of the fund's NAV, or through monthly scheduled withdrawals. A key addition is the new sSCOPE token, designed specifically for DeFi composability in a regulated manner, allowing holders to deploy the asset in on-chain lending platforms or liquidity pools depending on future integrations. The Apollo Diversified Credit Securitize Fund (ACRED) received the same treatment earlier this year, with leveraged DeFi strategies built around it. The update arrives as the tokenized real-world asset (RWA) market surpasses $25 billion, with private credit making up $14 billion of that total, data shows. Securitize has been one of the most active participants in the sector, issuing nearly $4 billion in tokenized assets to date, including BlackRock's digital money market fund BUIDL. A recent S&P report identified tokenization and private credit as intersecting forces that could reshape capital markets over the next years, a trend that the Hamilton Lane fund aims to capture. "DeFi can actually make an existing offering better, but still making it compliant. That's a game changer," Victor Jung, head of digital assets at Hamilton Lane, said in an interview with in to access your portfolio

R&W Rope Marks 40 Years in Business with Expanded Services and New Safety Technology
NEW BEDFORD, Mass., July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- R&W Rope is proud to celebrate 40 years of serving customers across the arborist, marine, industrial, utility, and recreational markets. Founded in 1985, the company has grown steadily by offering quality rope products, personalized service, and expert knowledge to meet the needs of both professionals and hobbyists. To mark this milestone, R&W Rope is announcing two important updates that reflect its ongoing commitment to safety, education, and service: the acquisition of The Rope Guru and the addition of the SCOPE machine, a rope inspection device using AI technology designed to help prevent line failure. The Rope Guru, known for its expertise in supplying and splicing custom synthetic rope for the arborist, electrical utility, tug and barge, crane and other heavy lifting equipment markets as well as a myriad of other industrial and technical applications, will now operate as part of the R&W Rope team. The Rope Guru facility also houses a 50,000 lb capacity break test machine used to certify splices and proof load synthetic and chain slings. The addition of these capabilities strengthens R&W Rope's service portfolio to include in-depth rigging assessments, as well as product recommendations based on real-world application and proven techniques.

Developed by Vision by Scope, it is one of only 17 currently in use across the United States. Powered by AI technology, the machine uses camera imaging and data analysis to assess the condition of pulling rope used in the electrical utility market —crucial to identifying internal wear or damage that may pose safety threats not caught through traditional manual inspection. With this technology, R&W Rope now offers cutting-edge testing services that support safer practices in the field, help reduce expensive downtime, extend the life of rope products, and reduce the overall number of failures in the field. "Over the last four decades, we have remained focused on delivering dependable, U.S. made products, with our experts helping customers use them safely and effectively," said Rodney McCollester of R&W Rope. "The Rope Guru brings added depth to our team, and the SCOPE machine allows us to provide a higher level of inspection and efficiency for those who rely on rope in critical environments."
