VERT Capital to Tokenize $1 Billion in Real-World Assets via XDC Network

Brazilian financial services firm VERT Capital has announced plans to tokenize up to $1 billion in real-world assets, including corporate debt, agribusiness receivables, and structured credit products, using the XDC Network over the next 30 months [1]. The move represents one of the largest tokenization initiatives in the emerging real-world asset (RWA) space and underscores the growing role of blockchain in transforming traditional financial infrastructure.

This development builds on VERT Capital’s earlier success in tokenizing $130 million in agribusiness assets on the XRP Ledger, a prior blockchain deployment that demonstrated the firm’s commitment to leveraging digital assets to unlock liquidity in traditionally opaque markets [3]. The new initiative with XDC Network is expected to streamline the process of converting illiquid assets into tokenized representations that can be traded more efficiently, with the potential to attract a wider range of investors, including those who may not have previously had access to such asset classes [1].

The tokenization of real-world assets has gained traction globally, with institutional players and fintech firms increasingly exploring blockchain-based solutions to enhance transparency, reduce settlement times, and improve capital efficiency [2]. In particular, asset classes such as private credit, commodities, and structured products are seen as natural candidates for tokenization due to their high value and limited liquidity [1]. VERT Capital’s initiative aligns with this trend, using blockchain infrastructure to represent these assets in a digital format that can be traded, managed, and transferred with greater ease.

The firm’s choice of the XDC Network reflects a strategic preference for a blockchain platform that offers high throughput and low transaction costs—critical features for handling large-scale asset tokenization [1]. The XDC Network has previously been used in various tokenization projects and is designed to support institutional-grade digital asset management, making it a suitable infrastructure partner for VERT’s ambitions.

While the initiative signals progress in the RWA market, challenges remain, including regulatory uncertainty, market education, and the development of secondary markets for tokenized assets. Analysts have noted that the success of such projects will depend not only on technological capabilities but also on the willingness of investors and institutions to adopt these new forms of asset representation [1]. As more firms enter the tokenization space, it is likely that industry standards, legal frameworks, and market structures will continue to evolve to accommodate this shift.
