Avalanche $50 Million Real World Asset Tokenization Initiative

Avalanche Vista, a $50 million effort to invest in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, was introduced by the Avalanche Foundation.

Avalanche declared on July 25 that their goal was to “pioneer the future of asset tokenization.”

According to the report, tokenization will likely be one of the most important blockchain advancements of the coming ten years.

The scalable layer-1 blockchain network will be used to create tokenized real-world assets with an estimated $50 million in funding.

According to Avalanche Vista, it wants to hasten the development of tokenization and its application to on-chain finance (OnFi). Equity, credit, real estate, commodities, and blockchain-native assets are just a few of the assets that will be taken into consideration for tokenization.

Asset tokenization, according to John Wu, president of Ava Labs, “is a critical driver of the present,” not just of capital markets.

“The groundswell of momentum across institutions building on-chain has been astounding, and the Avalanche Foundation is taking a big leap forward with this initiative.”

By the end of 2030, the market for tokenized assets is anticipated to reach $20 trillion, according to a forecast by Security Token Advisors.

Additionally, according to RWA.xyz, the value of tokenized US Treasury securities has risen to an all-time high of $641 million. Since the start of the year, Treasury tokenization has increased by more than 460%.

In June, private wealth management company Bernstein predicted that over the following five years, around 2% of the world’s total money supply, or about $3 trillion, might be tokenized.

RWA tokenization will also be crucial for the Ethereum ecosystem because it is the industry standard, according to Ethereum supporter Ryan Berckmans:

“As tokenized real world assets grow to global ubiquity, we may expect Ethereum and our L2s to capture the vast majority of this growth. Not just because we’re a great place to tokenize, but also because we’re the best marketplace in the world.”

Alibaba Cloud unveiled a launchpad in May to set up shop on the Avalanche network and deploy its metaverse.

Future Price of AVAX

The latest announcement had no impact on the price of avalanche tokens, which are now trading unchanged for the day at $13.18.

Additionally, the asset has declined 6% during the past week in accordance with the general decline in the cryptocurrency market.

AVAX has been in a downward trend for the past year and is still 91% below its top price of $145 in November 2021.
