Leading Tokenization Brands Unite To Create The Real World Asset (RWA) Foundation To Strengthen The Web3 Community And Its Voice

Miami – USA – Munich – Germany – November 19th, 2024

The asset tokenization and Real World Asset (RWA) industry have reached a significant milestone today with the introduction of the RWA Foundation featuring founding member partners across different service practices, blockchain solutions, and asset tokenization leaders. The mission of the RWA Foundation is to establish standards, best practices, and utility that incentivizes the adoption of tokenization for crypto natives interacting with RWAs as well as asset issuers bringing products on chain. Through the creation of working boards, grant programs, dedicated educational events, and a variety of special initiatives, the RWA Foundation will work with its members to integrate tokenization and RWAs within the crypto economy.

Foundations in the web3 industry are a proven model to harness the power of community and provide direct support for the growth of a decentralized protocol or DeFi application and its ecosystem. RWAs are no exception to needing an organization that is designed to support the growth of the ecosystem and to create a community that can come together and collaborate to drive adoption. This year was dubbed the Year of the Real World Asset by Security Token Market, proving to be a cataclysmic year that marks the beginning of burgeoning asset tokenization industry and its bridge to an on chain economy. This is further signaled by the interest and support of the founding member organizations that are announced today. The reputations and experience of these firms and individual advisors signifies the traction this industry is already experiencing with a commitment to collaboration from everyone involved.

The Founding Member firms announced as a part of today’s launch of the RWA Foundation include:

Securitize, Ava Labs, Neoclassic Capital, Maple, Propy, Mountain Protocol, Republic, tZERO, INX, RealT, Dinari, IXSwap, Swarm,  Chintai, Arca Labs, Brickken, Metawealth, Mercado Bitcoin, Archax, Polymesh, ProvLabs, Chronicle Labs, Particula, Credora, SWD, Blue Bay Ventures, Finaventures, and Security Token Market.

As a flagship initiative, the RWA Foundation is preparing to launch a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) with the purpose to incentivize more market participation with the release of loyalty perks related to RWAs, exclusive access to RWA related airdrops, and governance tokens to steer the direction of the DAO for token holders.  

The RWA Foundation will also be forming an advocacy board dedicated to interoperability and quantifying the benefits of multi-chain RWAs. A number of other working groups revolving around bridging DeFi and RWAs, policy and establishing best practices, exploring how to create liquid RWA markets, and more have been established. The RWA Foundation will soon release details about a grant program designed to incentivize adoption and asset tokenization.
