RWA platform enters new phase, expanding compliant access to onchain assets

Tokens, Web3, RWA, Tokenization

Asset tokenization provider OpenEden expands its RWA tokenization platform to bridge traditional finance and blockchain securely and efficiently.

Tokenization is the bridge between traditional finance and blockchain. Yet, the progress in the space has been uneven. Many projects promise access to real-world assets (RWAs) without the infrastructure or regulatory clarity to make them credible to institutions. Partnerships are often overstated, compliance frameworks underdeveloped and transparency limited. For investors and institutions, this creates an environment where trust is fragile and adoption is slowed.

Meanwhile, the demand for regulated products that provide secure, verifiable and efficient exposure to traditional markets onchain has grown sharply. Institutional investors in particular require both the assurance of established custodians and the composability of decentralized finance (DeFi). The challenge lies in building a system that meets both standards at once — delivering oversight akin to TradFi while still enabling the liquidity and innovation of decentralized markets.

A regulated gateway to RWAs

Founded in 2022, OpenEden set out to address these gaps directly by building an RWA tokenization platform grounded in compliance and institutional-grade practices. Operating through regulated entities in the British Virgin Islands and Bermuda, the platform delivers transparent and secure access to tokenized US Treasurys and yield-bearing stablecoins, prioritizing compliance and security as foundational principles.

Its product suite is designed to meet institutional standards, offering secure and transparent onchain access to tokenized assets. Its flagship product for tokenized US Treasurys, the TBILL fund, received an “A” rating from Moody’s and recently an “AA+” rating from S&P, a benchmark that underscores creditworthiness. The fund’s underlying assets — total value locked stands at around $300 million — are managed and custodied by The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY), one of the world’s largest custodian banks. BNY’s role signals the platform’s ability to meet institutional requirements for asset servicing and custody.

In parallel, OpenEden launched OpenDollar (USDO), a regulated stablecoin issued under Bermuda’s digital asset licensing framework. Fully collateralized by tokenized Treasurys, USDO combines the price stability of the dollar with native yield accrual. Its wrapped version, cUSDO, is highly composable across DeFi and is integrated with protocols such as Pendle, Morpho Labs, Euler and Balancer. The adoption of cUSDO extends beyond DeFi; it is integrated on Binance as an off-exchange yield-bearing collateral via Binance Banking Triparty and Ceffu’s MirrorRSV.

The RWA project is turning the page to its next chapter with the upcoming token. By the end of September 2025, OpenEden will launch its ecosystem token, EDEN, designed to support community participation and further platform development. The launch is part of a broader roadmap focused on regulated product expansion, deeper institutional partnerships and increased composability across DeFi.

Solid bridge to connect blockchain and TradFi

OpenEden’s trajectory has been reinforced by investor backing, including support from YZI Labs, and guided by founder Jeremy Ng’s two decades of experience at Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Gemini. His conviction has shaped the project’s approach: combining the discipline of traditional finance with the innovation of Web3.

“OpenEden has proven our ability to bridge traditional finance with Web3 through real partnerships, regulated products and institutional-grade standards,” Jeremy Ng, founder and CEO of the project, told Cointelegraph, adding:

“As RWA tokenization grows, OpenEden is not just building narratives. We are setting new benchmarks, and the upcoming EDEN launch represents the opportunity for the community to join the project in its growth.”

Through regulated products and institutional custody agreements, OpenEden has established a verified blueprint for bridging traditional finance and Web3. The continued focus will be on setting new benchmarks in RWA tokenization, extending composability and driving large-scale adoption of compliant assets.
