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.

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.
