This new platform allows people to trade assets that are tied to real-world things like property or bonds. But, in the form of tokens on the blockchain.
What makes this even bigger news is that Assetera’s marketplace is regulated by the Austrian Financial Market Authority. It also follows strict European rules, known as MiFID II, which makes it safer and more trustworthy.
What Are Tokenized Real-World Assets?
Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) are digital versions of physical things. For example, imagine you own a piece of property. Instead of selling it the old-fashioned way, you can create a token that represents the value of that property and sell the token instead. Here are some stats:
The current total value of Tokenized Real World Assets (Stablecoins included) distributed across the public blockchains landscape are estimated to be over $175B
Common asset classes of tokenized RWAs are: U.S. Treasuries, Global Bonds, Private Credit, Commodities and Stocks pic.twitter.com/jbQrCa94oW

This way, people can buy, sell, or trade small pieces of an asset, making it easier for everyday people to invest in things they might not usually afford. It’s like owning a slice of the pie instead of the whole thing.
How Assetera Works
Assetera’s platform runs on the Polygon blockchain, a technology that helps make these token trades fast and cheap. Even better, the platform is open 24/7, which means users can trade any time they want, even when traditional markets are closed. With Assetera, investors get the chance to buy and sell these digital tokens representing real-world assets in a secure and easy-to-use environment.

One thing that sets Assetera apart from other platforms is that it’s regulated by the Austrian Financial Market Authority. This means the platform has to follow certain rules to protect its users and make sure everything runs smoothly. Following the MiFID II regulations— which are the rules in the European Union for financial services—also adds another layer of safety.
It’s like having a safety net when you’re walking a tightrope. The regulations are there to catch any mistakes and make sure everything is fair and square.
