What's RWAs
RWAs stands for Real World Assets, which encompass real estate, infrastructure projects, commodities, natural resources, and other tangible assets.
RWAs have entered a phase of rapid growth, with an increasing number of investors and institutions recognizing the potential and value of RWAs. An undeniable trend currently observed is that traditional financial giants like Goldman Sachs, Hamilton Lane, and Siemens, alongside prominent DeFi protocols such as MakerDAO, Comp, and Aave, are actively positioning themselves in the RWAs space. This indicates the growing interest and competition in the RWAs market.
What's Merlin
  • A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) based RWAs asset management protocol. This protocol will revolutionize the management and investment of RWAs assets, creating a more efficient and transparent ecosystem for asset management.
  • Our mission is to provide an open, secure, and trustworthy ecosystem for RWAs-based asset management. Whether you are an individual investor, an asset management institution, or a project initiator, Merlin Protocol will bring you greater opportunities and value.
