Reality check for builders: RWA platforms most commonly pitch 'bringing American stocks onchain'

but foreigners don't need better access to US markets

Americans (& foreigners) need better access to foreign markets.

US capital market has been outperforming for 15 years, and is the biggest in the world; basically all banks and brokerages across world offer streamlined access to American stocks. Of course they do; they've been a retail favorite for the last decade.

What if tides shift, and global retail starts being interested in other markets?
Almost nobody is ready for that.

That, in my view, is inevitable, and where opportunity lies for an onchain RWA platform to pull off. 

Not to open up access to the most accessible market in the world -- but to open up access to ALL markets, starting with less accessible ones.

Plus, this approach offers the added benefit of making Americans/Westerners your platform's target audience; rather than users from 3rd world financial markets or sanctioned countries.
