Launching the Record IP Portal: Pioneering On-Chain IP as the Next Asset Class
As the Real World Asset (RWA) landscape accelerates toward full on-chain integration, we're excited to announce the upcoming launch of the Record IP Portal—a groundbreaking platform set to redefine Intellectual Property (IP) as a digital-native asset class. Built on our Yield-indexed IP Rights Exposure Certificate (YREC) architecture, this portal will bridge traditional markets with blockchain's future, unlocking unprecedented opportunities for investors, creators, and institutions.
In today's RWA world, tokenization often falls short of true blockchain potential: Investors convert fiat to stablecoins for exposure to assets they could already access traditionally, receiving wrappers via Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) rather than native ownership. Our in-depth analyses in the YREC papers highlight this interim phase, where regulatory upgrades—like the U.S. GENIUS Act or Dubai's Property Deed initiatives—are essential to recognize blockchain ledgers as official registries for asset distribution and ownership.
But the future is bright, and the Record IP Portal is designed to lead it. As pioneers like Coinbase and Ondo drive global markets on-chain, we're focusing on extrapolating IP value—creating a parallel asset class that originates, operates, and accrues value entirely within blockchain ecosystems. Imagine a world where IP isn't just an intangible footnote but a dynamic, tradable primitive:
YREC Lens for Mapping: Starting with public equities, we'll map embedded IP value (patents, trademarks, copyrights) via legally binding attestations, without custody, delivering verifiable on-chain representations backed by real-world holdings.
IP 500 Index as Benchmark: Our tokenised innovation index will isolate the "innovation factor" from S&P 500 constituents, offering pure-play exposure to IP-driven growth and serving as the foundation for hedging technology risks.
Derivatives and Beyond: Looking ahead, this paves the way for IP futures, options, and prediction markets, enabling investors to hedge positions in public companies while capitalising on IP's decoupling from broader equity movements.
The Record IP Portal isn't just a tool; it's a vision for when IP becomes the cornerstone of on-chain finance. With YREC at its core, we're preparing for a regulatory landscape that fully embraces blockchain, extending from institutional portfolios to retail participation.
