⛓️Some background first
A recent report from Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and ADDX estimates that asset tokenization will reach $16 trillion by 2030, equating to 10% of global GDP. To contextualize, in 2020, the total assets under management for ETFs were $7 trillion (Source BIS), and total real estate investment trusts (REITs) were valued at $2.5 trillion in 2021 (Source Nareit). By integrating DeFi with Real World Assets, Tribal transforms illiquid assets into highly tradable and accessible assets for investors of all sizes.
The Tribal RWA Protocol represents a comprehensive ecosystem designed to streamline and enhance the accessibility of real-world assets (RWAs) through tokenization. Envisioned as the "AngelList for RWAs," this protocol integrates a diverse range of stakeholders and services crucial for its operation. Asset providers bring tangible assets into the ecosystem, offering them up for investment and engagement. Liquidity providers, on the other hand, inject the necessary capital to ensure fluid market operations and asset tokenization.
The tokenization platform itself is a pivotal component, where these real-world assets are converted into digital tokens, facilitating their division into tradable shares that can be easily bought and sold. This process democratizes access to investment opportunities that were traditionally limited to institutional investors or those with significant capital. Additionally, an aggregated RWA marketplace serves as the central hub where these tokenized assets are traded, providing a unified platform that enhances visibility and liquidity. This integrated approach not only simplifies the investment process in RWAs but also expands the potential investor base, driving further growth and inclusivity in the asset tokenization space.
