("Valereum" or the "Company")
Collaboration with Tokeny for VLRM's Real World Asset Marketplace
Valereum Plc (AQSE: VLRM) is delighted to announce it will collaborate with Tokeny as a technology provider for VLRM's Real World Asset ("RWA") marketplace. Valereum aims to establish and operate a RWA marketplace utilising Tokeny's technology solutions, to enable the primary issuance and bulletin board-based secondary trading of various digital assets, including investment funds, private companies, real estate, commodities, and royalties.
Valereum has chosen to work with Tokeny to support the establishment of VLRM Markets' digital asset ecosystem of infrastructure and marketplaces, alongside the development of our longer term Digital Financial Market Infrastructure ("DFMI") solution. This turnkey solution will combine high-performance trading engines, on-chain technology, wallet and custody offerings by integrating third-party technology with VLRM's proprietary technology.
Tokeny's platform gives Valereum a fast-to-market RWA marketplace, making use of the open-source ERC3643 standard to enable the tokenisation of real world assets.
V-Wallet users will be able to connect to VLRM's RWA marketplace in order to access, buy, sell, hold, and manage digital assets that are issued and available.
The tokenisation of RWAs is seen by industry commentators as one of the largest market opportunities in the blockchain sector, with a potential market size in the trillions of dollars.
VLRM Markets seeks to exploit this opportunity via its V-Wallet and RWA marketplace to foster innovation in financial products, democratise access and promote financial inclusion, improve transparency and market efficiency, and unlock value for investors and asset owners alike.
