While Tokenized Real-World assets get a grip on the worldwide markets, Fasset positions itself first with the launch of Own, an Ethereum Layer 2 network that is specially built for regulated RWA distribution.
With plans to offer tokenize and access to more than $ 1 billion in US shares, including tech giants such as Apple, Microsoft and Nvidia, Fasset focuses on sub -made investors worldwide.
In this Q&A I spoke with the leadership of Fasset about the technical design behind my own, regulatory strategies in various areas of law, dividend mechanisms and how tokenized shares will interact with both Trandfi and Defi -Ecosystems.
Below is the Q&A with Raafi Hossain, CEO and co-founder of Fasset
- How is the own, your Ethereum Layer 2 built for Real-World assets, technically structured to support the tokenization and distribution of $ 1 billion in US shares? Does it build on existing rollups or does it use its own design?
Own is built on the Layer 2 technology of Arbitrum for Security and Lower Costs, but we have added specific tools to deal with Real-World Assets. This includes token standards with optional compliance functions, verification systems for the underlying assets and tools that make it easier to publish and manage these assets. For shares specifically we have built modules to be able to handle dividends and ownership – essential supplies that generic blockchains usually miss.
- What made 2025 the right time for Fasset to enter the Tokenized sharing market on this scale, especially in view of the current global RWA market size and rising competition?
Three things come together: supervisors in our most important markets have delivered clearer frameworks, the technology has been sufficiently aged to secure security tokenization safely, and more importantly, we have confirmed a substantial question from our users, especially in emerging markets where US shares are difficult to access.
- Why were MSTR, TSLA, NVDA, Spy, Meta, Aapl, Googl, MSFT and Amzn selected as part of the first set of tokenized shares? Was the selection based on liquidity, the demand of investors, the size of market capitalization or another statistics?
These are not the only ones we support. We have more than 50 tokenized US shares. We have selected a composite set of worldwide -recognized shares and ETFs about technology, health care, consumer goods, energy and thematic sectors. These assets are liquid, trusted and represent strong foundations in the long term. Our list also contains Shariah-compliant options and raw materials to offer diversified, inclusive exposure that are tailored to the needs and values of our user base.
- Can you go through how the Dshares of Dinari are distributed and traded on the areas of law where Fasset has regulatory permits, in particular in the VAE, Indonesia, Malaysia and Pakistan?
In every market where we are active-vae, Indonesia, Malaysia and Pakistan, we built regulatory routes for these assets. The VAE serves as our regional hub under our VARA license. In Indonesia we work together with local banks to offer Rupiah on/off slopes under Bappebti -Requirements. For Malaysia and Pakistan we have implemented the specific compliance requirements for each country.
All transactions settle on its own, but each jurisdiction has its own legal wrapper to guarantee local compliance. This means that users get the same economic exposure, regardless of the location, but with locally suitable guarantees and protection.
For each jurisdiction we constantly follow and we adapt to the developments of the regulations. Web3 is a rapidly evolving sector and the changes are fast. If and when rules or regulations are implemented in each jurisdiction, we change our approach in each market accordingly.
- Will the token holders of dividend paying shares such as MSFT, AAPL or AMZN will receive real -time or periodic payouts? How are those dividends technically and legally distributed?
Yes. Dividend payment shares to Token holders receive dividend payment, which are distributed in Stablecoins. For users on the Fasset -appDividends are automatically credited to their in-app wallet. For users participating through Defishould be dividends Claimed manually Via the Dex interface. All dividend payments are supported by 1: 1 by real shares that are held in regulated detention (in the case of fasset) or in the user’s own wallet (own network).
- What does the typical user trip look like for access and trade tokenized shares on fasset, especially for users in fast -growing markets? How are Fiat on/off disasters and local bank integrations treated?
The user experience is simple:
- Complete a one-off KYC process in the Fasset app (about 5 minutes)
- Deposse local currency via well-known local payment methods, including direct bank integration, Apple and Google Pay, transfers and credit cards, e-Wallets, e-Wallets
- Buy tokenized shares with investments from $ 10
- Managing holdings, receiving dividends and gaining access to educational content
- Sales and draw local currency at any time
The entire experience is designed to be users known for local financial apps, while offering access to global investment options that they could not easily reach. Our bank integrations are protected by regulated payment corridors in every jurisdiction, with appropriate permits and partnerships that are already present.
- Given the strong correlation of MSTR with the focus of Bitcoin and Meta on AI and Metaverse, how do you prepare for Tokenized Equity question that overlaps with important crypto and technical stories?
Stocks such as MSTR and Meta have become gateways to technological trends. In the first place, people buy MST as a way to get regulated Bitcoin exposure through the stock market, while Meta investors often bet on future AI and metaverse potential, outside their social media activities.
We prepare for a wide range of assets, funds, metals, raw materials and thematic investments to be able to build up portfolios that reflect both the technological conviction and the long-term value. We also inform investors about the unique relationships and risks between direct crypto ownership and these stock alternatives.
This is important because investors on the emerging market often find it easier to access these technological trends by well -known, regulated stock offers than by direct crypto ownership.
- Are there plans to enable these tokenized shares to communicate with the Defi -Ecosystem – for example used as collateral, earnings or being integrated into strike or loan protocols?
By bringing real American shares to the chain, we open completely new possibilities for these assets. Developers will be able to integrate these tokenized shares into Defi applications creating theme investment bundles, using them as collateral in credit markets, or to include them in strategies for generating returns.
It is crucial that all Defi interactions remain optional. Users can easily keep their tokenized shares on our regulated platform if they prefer, or they can choose to have these assets work in Defi when they are ready. This flexibility – both regulating compliance and defi -innovation in one ecosystem – is fundamental for our approach.
