LFDT Phoenix: Open Standards for Tokenization – Why Interoperability Matters

Institutional adoption of tokenized assets hinges on solving a critical infrastructure problem: how do digital securities operate across multiple platforms, jurisdictions, and compliance regimes without recreating the vendor lock-in that plagues legacy systems?

Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust and OpenAssets are establishing this foundational layer through the Open Tokenized Asset Standard (OTAS)—a recently approved lab building protocol-agnostic standards for compliant, interoperable digital assets.

Surendra Kalidindi, CTO of OpenAssets will explore why open standards matter for institutional digital assets, how OTAS differs from proprietary tokenization platforms, and what the newly launched OTAS Lab will deliver to the ecosystem. Discover opportunities for developers and institutions to contribute through the OTAS Lab and LF Decentralized Trust’s mentorship program.

Please note: This event is being shared with our entire global community. If you’re interested in this content but can’t attend the event live, feel free to sign up and we will send you a link to the recording after the meetup is over.
