💥 The Time is Now - RWA Base Camp is Back 💥 📣 We are excited to announce the second edition of our RWA (Real World Asset) Base Camp Accelerator program! After successfully wrapping up our first RWA (Real World Asset) Base Camp and working closely with six incredible startups including, Credbull, Credible Finance, Haraka, Isle Finance, moreliquid, and Silver Koi, we remain bullish on the RWA ecosystem and the power of tokenization. We also quickly realised that despite the focus on financial use cases, RWA is a large, diverse ecosystem of companies who have found tremendous traction. The first program further reinforces our views and vision that RWA is on an onward trajectory to find sustained, broad-based adoption over the next few years. In our new RWA thesis, ‘Real World Asset Tokenization’, we further explore these trends and verticals in the RWA ecosystem. Read the full thesis to learn more: https://lnkd.in/dVJ5F2yr After going through the initial recruiting for the cohort, We’ve decided to seek projects building across verticals which include: ↳ Institutional Proof Tokenization ↳Intellectual Property ↳ RWA Indexing Tools ↳ Asset Segregation ↳ RWA Market Makers. ⏳ Now is an ideal time to double down on RWAs and provide premium support to builders unlocking new opportunities in this ecosystem. Applications are now open until late August 2024. The program will kick off in early September. 👉 Apply now: https://lnkd.in/dcsD8P39 Elliot Leimer
