Precious metals are breaking records—gold hitting all-time highs, silver joining the rally, even copper surging to new peaks. What's interesting is watching these traditional stores of value find their way onto blockchain infrastructure.

On Arbitrum, you can already trade these commodities through emerging protocols. This isn't just about adding more assets to a chain; it's about something bigger. A settlement layer for all of finance is taking shape right before us. The infrastructure's being built to bridge every asset class—from precious metals to real estate to equities—onto decentralized networks.

Arbitrum's sitting at the center of this shift. Soon, nearly everything with real value will have its on-chain representation. That's when things get interesting.
