SG-Forge, the crypto subsidiary of Societe Generale, has made a major breakthrough 🚀 by successfully settling a tokenized bond using both traditional cash 💶 and its euro-backed stablecoin, EURCV, with support from the SWIFT network 🌍. This transaction, completed in early 2025 in Paris 🇫🇷, shows how traditional finance and blockchain technology can work together 🤝.

The deal proved that blockchain can handle the full lifecycle of a bond—from issuance and payments to redemption—while staying compliant with existing regulations ✅. SWIFT provided the trusted messaging system 🔐, while the stablecoin enabled near-instant settlement ⚡, reducing risks and delays.

This development comes at a time of growing institutional interest in digital assets across Europe 📈, supported by clearer regulations like MiCA 📜. Experts believe this hybrid model could become a new standard and transform how bonds and other financial instruments are settled in the future 🔮.
