HashKey Group and Asseto Reach Strategic Investment Cooperation to Promote RWA Tokenization Development

Asia's leading digital asset financial services group recently announced the completion of a strategic investment in the fintech company Asseto Holdings Limited. This collaboration marks a deep synergy between both parties in the field of real-world asset ( RWA ) tokenization, jointly building an efficient and scalable on-chain asset infrastructure, promoting the development of the stablecoin ecosystem, and integrating traditional finance with the decentralized economy.

This cooperation is not only a strategic investment but also a comprehensive collaboration between the two parties in the RWA field. Both sides will utilize their respective advantageous resources to create an efficient and scalable on-chain asset platform, bridging traditional finance and decentralized finance, and promoting compliance, standardization, and institutionalization within the industry.

A major highlight of the collaboration is that Asseto's institutional-grade RWA issuance capability will be deeply integrated with the high-performance Layer 2 blockchain network platform independently developed by the investors. Both parties will collaborate to develop end-to-end technical solutions to support on-chain issuance, settlement, and circulation of various financial assets, including cash management, funds, and bonds, ensuring efficient flow and traceability of assets between "off-chain and on-chain". Asseto will prioritize deploying its high-quality RWA products natively within this blockchain ecosystem, and in the future, users are expected to conveniently and efficiently access diverse on-chain assets through channels such as the trading platform provided by the investors.

In this strategic cooperation, the blockchain platform not only participates in the construction as underlying infrastructure but also takes on the roles of technical guidance and ecological coordination throughout the entire process of RWA asset tokenization. As a high-performance Layer 2 network specifically designed for financial-grade assets, this platform provides Asseto with comprehensive standardized solutions in multiple key areas such as smart contract standards and modular deployment. On-chain issuance requires high-spec channels as well as institutional and protocol layers capable of supporting complex asset structures, and this blockchain platform is a key builder of that role.

This cooperation also extends to the fields of education and industry-academia-research collaboration. On June 30, 2025, Asseto and its investors will jointly become one of the first companies to sign a strategic cooperation memorandum with the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, focusing on areas such as blockchain finance, RWA standard formulation, and digital asset regulation, to promote academic research, talent development, and the evolution of the industry ecosystem, collectively contributing to Hong Kong's goal of building a globally leading digital financial innovation center.

In the future, both parties will continue to deepen cooperation in multiple dimensions such as building industry standards and cross-border pilots, promoting the healthy development of the global RWA market, accelerating the compliant implementation of new asset types such as stablecoins, tokenized funds, and on-chain bonds, and assisting the comprehensive transformation of traditional financial assets to a Web3 architecture.

This strategic investment is not only a strong recognition of Asseto's technological strength, product capabilities, and market vision by the investors, but also lays a solid foundation for both parties to build an Asia-leading RWA tokenization ecosystem. Through collaborative efforts in constructing the underlying technology, exchanges, custody, research, and regulatory interaction mechanisms, both parties will work together to promote the standardization and scaling of RWA infrastructure, further unleashing the long-term potential of on-chain finance.

Asseto is a fintech company focused on the tokenization of RWA, dedicated to creating a next-generation on-chain asset platform. The company starts with cash management-related RWA products and continues to expand into funds, bonds, stocks, private credit, real estate, gold, and other alternative assets, building a diversified and sustainable revenue model. Asseto adopts an institutional-grade compliance technology framework, deeply integrating traditional finance with decentralized finance, and has established a strategic cooperation network covering Hong Kong and Asia, including two companies that are about to submit applications for a Hong Kong stablecoin license. The core team members of the company come from top international financial institutions and Web3 projects, possessing rich experience in both traditional finance and decentralized finance. Against the backdrop of the rapid development of stablecoins and on-chain yield assets, with continuous product launches and ecosystem expansion, Asseto is steadily stepping into the core ranks of Asia's Web3 financial infrastructure construction. The total locked value of Asseto is expected to continue to grow, and it is poised to become an important participant in Asia's Web3 financial infrastructure in the future.
