Bernstein: Figure's Q1 performance showcases the uniqueness of the blockchain market platform
Bernstein analysts stated last week that Figure Technology Solutions' first-quarter financial report shows the company is rapidly becoming a unique presence in the blockchain market platform. The performance released by Figure on May 11 significantly exceeded Wall Street expectations in both revenue and EBITDA, with its core business transforming real-world credit assets into blockchain-native tools that can be traded and financed on-chain.
Analysts believe Figure is building a blockchain-native capital market ecosystem, fundamentally differentiating itself from traditional balance sheet-based fintech lending platforms, and expect its stock FIGR to become a real-time reflection of blockchain loan volumes. Bernstein pointed out in a research report on May 15 that on-chain real-time data indicates Figure is about to welcome a record-breaking second quarter.
Co-founder Mike Cagney introduced that the company's Forge platform can convert entire loans into small single-dollar liquidity participation units, addressing the liquidity challenges of RWA in DeFi. Bernstein previously estimated that the potential market size for annual credit issuance that could migrate on-chain could reach $4 trillion, while the current tokenized credit market is approximately $5.14 billion.
