Both parties will leverage their respective advantageous resources to bridge the gap between traditional finance and decentralized finance, promoting industry compliance, standardization, and institutionalization.
HashKey Group, a leading digital asset financial services group in Asia (hereinafter referred to as "HashKey"), has announced the completion of a strategic investment in the fintech company Asseto Holdings Limited (hereinafter referred to as "Asseto").
This collaboration marks a deep synergy between the two parties in the field of RWA (Real World Assets) tokenization, jointly creating an efficient and scalable on-chain asset infrastructure, promoting the development of the stablecoin ecosystem, and integrating traditional finance with the decentralized economy to facilitate the implementation and scaling of digital asset infrastructure.
This partnership is not only a strategic investment but also a comprehensive collaboration between Asseto and HashKey in the RWA domain. Both parties will rely on their respective advantageous resources to build an efficient and scalable on-chain asset platform, bridging the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi), and promoting industry compliance, standardization, and institutionalization.
A major highlight of this collaboration is that Asseto's institutional-level RWA issuance capability will be deeply integrated with HashKey's self-developed high-performance Layer 2 blockchain network platform, HashKey Chain. The two parties will collaboratively 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 and traceable asset flow between "off-chain and on-chain." Asseto will prioritize the native deployment of its high-quality RWA products within the HashKey Chain ecosystem, and in the future, users are expected to conveniently and efficiently access diverse on-chain assets through trading platforms provided by HashKey.
In this strategic collaboration, HashKey Chain will participate in the construction as a foundational infrastructure while also taking on the role of technical guidance and ecological coordination throughout the entire process of RWA asset on-chain. As a high-performance Layer 2 network designed for financial-grade assets, HashKey Chain provides Asseto with comprehensive standardized solutions in several key areas, including smart contract standards and modular deployment—on-chain issuance requires high-standard channels and a system and protocol layer capable of supporting complex asset structures, and HashKey Chain is a key builder of this role.
At the same time, HashKey Chain will also serve as one of the main chains for deploying Asseto's diverse RWA products, assisting the project in quickly entering the vast market of on-chain financial networks through ecological incentives, liquidity support, and developer resources. The advancement of this collaboration not only demonstrates HashKey Chain's strong adaptability in real-world asset implementation scenarios but also further establishes its systematic position in the construction of financial-grade RWA infrastructure standards.
This collaboration also extends to the education and industry-academia-research sectors. On June 30, 2025, Asseto and HashKey jointly became the first enterprises to sign a strategic cooperation memorandum (MOU) with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), focusing on blockchain finance, RWA standard formulation, and digital asset regulation, promoting academic research, talent cultivation, and industry ecological development, and jointly contributing to Hong Kong's goal of building a global leading digital financial innovation center.
In the future, Asseto and HashKey will continue to deepen cooperation in various dimensions such as industry standard construction and cross-border pilot projects, 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 facilitating the comprehensive transformation of traditional financial assets to a Web3 architecture.
This strategic investment not only reflects HashKey's high recognition of Asseto's technical strength, product capabilities, and market vision but also lays a solid foundation for both parties to build a leading RWA tokenization ecosystem in Asia. By collaboratively building the technical infrastructure, 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.
