Bitfinex Securities Completes Record $50M Tokenized Nickel Capital Raise for Alkemya

Bitfinex Securities completes a record $50M tokenized capital raise for metals company Alkemya. The ALKN token grants investors interests in a Luxembourg partnership holding about 7 million meters of 99.99% pure nickel wire. The underlying physical asset is independently valued at approximately $1.64 billion. This funding round shatters the platform's previous $30 million record set by a tokenized US Treasury product. Alkemya's using the capital to commercialize engineered nickel products for semiconductor applications. The real-world asset sector isn't just playing with experimental treasury bills anymore; it's officially graduating into hard industrial commodities.
