WorldAssets (hereinafter referred to as the “WorldAssets Project”) is leveraging its underlying ERC‑20 standard technology and innovative design to actively promote the WAT Protocol (WorldAssets Protocol) it has built to enter the physical asset open application node, opening a new chapter in the global high-quality asset chain.
1. Introduction to WorldAssets Project and WAT Protocol
The WAT protocol built by the WorldAssets project is a hybrid RWA + DeFi architecture with ERC‑20 as the core. It consists of two types of standardized tokens + secure liquidity pools:
● ATC: Stably anchored to USDT/USDC, an on-chain symbol representing asset ownership; holding ATC means holding asset ownership. In addition to enjoying a fixed 10% USD return on real assets, you can also participate in the RWAFi ecosystem to obtain more benefits, and it can also be used for physical asset exchange.
● INC: An income token supported by the real-world USD income of assets. It forms a market value based on income and appreciation, and supports liquidity mining.
● Safe liquidity pool: High-quality assets enter the RWA world through the WAT protocol. The corresponding USDT\USDC liquidity pool must be added according to the WAT_algorithm to ensure the popular and secure transactions of asset tokens. At the same time, the sales funds of asset tokens will also be deposited into the safe liquidity pool to ensure the asset security of Crypto users.
The underlying technology relies on the Ethereum ERC‑20 standard and is compatible with various protocols in the DeFi ecosystem, including lending, staking, and AMM markets. It also uses the ZK‑NFT mechanism to link asset rights with dynamic ATC on-chain market conditions, effectively ensuring asset transparency and capital circulation efficiency.
2. Technical advantages: ERC‑20 drives physical assets onto the chain
As one of the most mature token standards, ERC‑20 has a simple contract template, strong interoperability, and is widely compatible with mainstream wallets and decentralized applications. WorldAssets uses this standard to digitize physical assets and supports:
1. Asset on-chain and asset confirmation: After the assets are evaluated and packaged by a third-party agency, ZK-NFT is used to correspond to the physical assets, and then ATC of equivalent value is minted to ensure that the on-chain data maps to the real assets.
2. On-chain governance and revenue distribution: Users holding ATC not only have governance rights, but also receive fixed income and INC incentives, thus completing the asset issuance, governance and dividend cycle in one fell swoop.
3. DeFi integration and RWAFi engine: ATC and INC can participate in liquidity mining, pledge lending and AMM market making to create variable combination income solutions.
3. Multiple physical assets have been launched: Diversified portfolios are showing initial results
Currently, the WAT protocol has successfully launched a variety of physical assets:
● Gold: Hong Kong custodial warehousing, ATC annualized return 8 – 10%.
● Real estate: Canadian real estate groups real estate and funds; Dubai NU STREAM pre-sale property, connected with EMAAR development, has opened up the liquidity of the real estate asset chain.
● Energy: Turkmenistan’s natural gas resources, with an expected annualized return of ≥ 10%.
The scale of assets launched has exceeded 40 million USD, and it is backed by approximately 4.2 million USDT market-making guarantees to ensure a smooth trading experience for users. The scale of assets signed to support the WAT protocol has reached 270 M USD.
4. Application for global physical assets will be open soon
The WAT protocol will officially open physical asset applications to the world in Q3 2025. This move aims to attract more high-quality asset parties to participate in asset packaging and on-chain token issuance, further enriching market supply and investment targets. Through the POS-DAO consensus governance mechanism, the source and quality of assets will be jointly reviewed by the community to ensure project compliance and security. At the same time, open applications are expected to accelerate the expansion of the asset pool and bring more sources of income to ecological participants.
In addition, this opening will leverage the ERC‑20 token compatibility to make it easier for issuers in different regions to connect to mainstream DeFi platforms, and support the subsequent listing and circulation of asset income INC on mainstream CEX/DEX.
5. Investors and Ecosystem Outlook
WorldAssets completed a $6 million Series A financing in April 2025, jointly invested by Cryptos well-known VC + family office + traditional financial institutions. The funds are used to improve the AMM liquidity structure and RWAFi engine construction, while helping the smooth implementation of the global asset access plan. With the opening of this node event, WorldAssets is expected to quickly establish a global RWA channel with ERC-20 technology as the core, asset-on-chain governance-investor closed loop, and realize the deep integration of the currency circle and the real economy.
The WAT protocol is building a complete ecosystem covering asset issuance, title confirmation, governance and trading based on the mature ERC‑20 standard. With the global physical asset application about to start, WorldAssets is expected to lead the era of large-scale on-chain physical assets and provide the public with more compliant, transparent and stable asset options.
