Karpous has launched a closed alpha version of its platform focusing on real world assets (RWAs), introducing a model that bypasses tokenization requirements. The platform, which began operations in Q4 2024, enables direct investment in global assets while maintaining regulatory compliance.
\ The company's approach differs from traditional RWA platforms by eliminating tokenization, which has historically created regulatory hurdles for investors and asset managers. This strategy allows both retail and institutional participants to access investment opportunities through a centralized platform while maintaining decentralized security features.
\ "We recognized that tokenization creates unnecessary complexity in RWA investment," states the CEO of Karpous. "Our platform provides direct access to global assets while maintaining regulatory alignment." The platform incorporates several technical features, including a staking mechanism with time-based accrual and a governance structure through KarpousDAO. The company has allocated 35% of its token supply to early platform participants.
\ Market analysis indicates the RWA sector could reach $16 trillion by 2030. Karpous's entry into this market segment comes as traditional financial institutions increasingly explore blockchain technology integration while managing regulatory requirements. The platform currently serves high-net-worth individuals during its closed testing phase. A full alpha launch incorporating additional web3 components is scheduled for Q2 2025.
\ This development reflects broader industry trends where platforms are exploring hybrid models combining centralized operations with decentralized security features. Karpous terms this approach "cDe-Fi" (centralized DeFi), aiming to balance regulatory compliance with blockchain technology benefits.
\ The platform enables multiple participant categories, from individual investors to professional asset managers, to engage with global investment opportunities. Investment pools within the platform facilitate collaborative investment strategies. Karpous plans to expand its feature set throughout 2025, focusing on integrating additional blockchain capabilities while maintaining its non-tokenized approach to RWA investment.
