From the first stirrings of life beneath the waves,the greatest art quietly paves, in universe.When starry nights meet Van Gogh's humble gaze,and Meme trend with RWA power ablaze.In the Web3 era, "Art" within "Artificial" stays.

Why the Age-Old Concept of RWA Continues to Be a TimelessNarrative

Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization is a significant application of Web3technology in the realm of tangible assets and even in the art market.Through RWA, physical artworks can be converted into digital tokens on theblockchain, enabling their trade and investment in digital markets. Thismethod not only enhances the liquidity of artworks but also increases theirfinancial value. Currently, the total market value of RWAs has reached $8billion, with expectations to grow to $16 billion by 2025.

RWAs are backed or supported by real-world assets, making them relativelystable compared to the volatile nature of virtual assets. This stability is crucialfor the diversified allocation of virtual assets; a balanced virtual asset portfolio requires a reasonable mix of high-risk, medium-risk, and low-risk or risk-freeassets. RWA will drive diversified portfolio investment or allocation in cryptoinvestments, moving beyond simple speculation and the extreme fluctuationsof cryptocurrency markets.

Investors have varying levels of risk aversion and risk tolerance, and they alsohave different expectations for returns. This diversity creates opportunities forinterest rate swaps or arbitrage, whether in a bull or bear market, which inturn generates liquidity.

Therefore, one of the keys to RWA’s success lies inachieving greater liquidity.As the public continues to discuss RWAs, they gradually recognize their value,such as global cross-market trading, reduced transaction costs, and improvedtransaction efficiency. RWAs also pave the way for tokenizing emerging assetslike AI computing power, data, and artworks, leading to a consensus on theirvaluation expectations, with a more inclusive and transparent pricing modeland security. However, concerns also arise regarding RWAs, includingregulatory and compliance issues, insufficient liquidity, and technological andoperational risks.

The Art Market is Undergoing a Digital and InnovativeTransformation

With the rapid development of the blockchain market, the concept of Web3 isgradually being integrated into the art market, bringing unprecedentedopportunities. Web3 technology, through decentralized, transparent, andsecure trading methods, makes the digitization, tokenization, and onlinetrading of artworks possible. This not only enhances the liquidity and markettransparency of artworks but also provides new income streams for artists andcollectors.According to the “Art Basel and UBS Global Art Market Report,” the art markethas shown strong performance during the post-pandemic recovery, with thetotal global art market value expected to reach $75 billion by 2025.Meanwhile, Web3 applications like NFTs and RWAs are rapidly gainingpopularity, further driving the prosperity of the art market.As more artists, collectors, and investors enter this field, the integration ofWeb3 with the art market will undoubtedly continue to lead future trends ofinnovation. RWAs are reshaping the art market by offering broader investmentopportunities and higher market transparency. This trend not only fosters theflourishing development of the art market but also creates more commercialopportunities and financial value for artists and collectors.

The Collision of Web3 Assets and the Art Market

It is well known that Web3 has three directions: meme assets (Meme),application assets (BTC, ETH), and real-world assets (RWA). Some questionwhether RWA is truly a native digital token, prompting a thought: could Bitcoinbe considered an RWA tokenized from energy?With the introduction of BTC and ETH ETFs, Web3 is gradually moving awayfrom the semi-closed loop of internal financing and external buy-ins. Theinflux of real-world assets into Web3 presents a significant opportunity for theupcoming cycles. RWA represents the physical business within the cryptoindustry and is an inevitable path for the blockchain industry.As the global economy declines, the lipstick effect has impacted the artmarket post-pandemic, and NFTs have further ingrained the concept ofdigitizing artworks in people’s minds. The traditional art market relies onconventional value experiences and trading methods, whereas AI andblockchain technology have established a new paradigm in the digital artmarket. This breakthrough has created new avenues for emerging artinvestments and consumption choices, broadening the creative andmonetization paths for artists.When considering RWAs and the art market, asset tokenization is no longerthe most challenging aspect of RWA development, as the necessaryinfrastructure has long been established. The disconnect between continuousoff-chain verification and on-chain value representation is the primary reasonfor slow growth and the depreciation of on-chain assets.Most RWA products are concentrated in expensive assets, limited to easilyquantifiable financial products, and involve complex KYC procedures and highknowledge barriers, making them difficult for consumers to engage with,unlike memes, which are simple to participate in. The scale and thresholdsmake it inaccessible to the average consumer.When thinking about the value presentation of art and artworks in the Web3context, we often instinctively associate it with NFTs. However, in 2024, weare no longer FOMO-driven participants in the NFT bubble and should clearlyunderstand that:Even NFTs cannot effectively ensure the original author’s copyright andintellectual property rights, and the created works are merely “digitalversions” without substantial financial or application value. Additionally, therelated industry chain is still incomplete. Using NFTs as a carrier of thefinancial attributes of artworks is inappropriate, as issues of liquidity and ownership persist, with no artistic value to speak of. High-priced NFTs areoften native financial products on the chain, not artworks. Meme’s conveyedartistic nature and financial expression, in contrast, have a more significantimpact.

Meme-like RWA Makes RWA More Than Web2.5

RWA, as a security token of real-world assets, involves more than merelytokenizing physical assets and issuing tokens. It should be approached onthree levels: starting from the underlying asset, then considering the type ofexpected returns, and finally, the tokenization process.Based on this, Ultiland has proposed the concept of Meme-like RWA to createmore attractive and innovative financial products.

Combining Asset Stability with Memes

Asset stability is the cornerstone of RWA, and Meme-like RWA enhances theperception of this stability by integrating assets with popular cultural symbols.The universal appeal of memes helps build a loyal community that not onlyfocuses on the current value of the asset but also holds confidence in itsfuture stability. Through meme dissemination, the stability narrative of RWAspreads quickly, attracting more investors and holders.

Secondary Derivation of RWA Asset Value

The Meme-like RWA model provides new avenues for the secondary derivationof RWA asset value. By creatively combining RWA assets with meme culture,new financial derivatives can be developed, such as tokens or NFTs based onspecific meme themes. These derivatives not only offer new revenue opportunities for investors but also increase the diversity and fun of RWA assets, thereby attracting a broader audience

Iterative Design of Yield Farming

The Meme-like RWA model iteratively designs yield farming by combiningmining models with meme culture, creating a fun and profitable investmentapproach. Community members can earn additional token rewards byparticipating in meme challenges, creating related content, or completingspecific tasks. This method not only enhances the appeal of RWA assets butalso increases community activity and engagement.

Derivation of Interest-bearing Assets

The Meme-like RWA model allows the underlying assets of RWA to deriveinterest-bearing assets. These assets, through meme forms, combine currentreturns with future expectations, creating new investment value. For example,a token related to a specific meme can be designed, with its value dependingnot only on the performance of the underlying RWA asset but also on the community’s enthusiasm and engagement with meme culture.

Dual Design of Real-World Assets

In the Meme-like RWA model, real-world assets are given a dual design ofcurrent returns and future expectations. This design considers not only theimmediate returns of the asset but also its potential value growth over time ascommunity participation increases. Through the dissemination of meme culture and community co-creation, RWA assets can achieve sustained growth and expansion in value.Through the above methodology, the Meme-like RWA model injects new vitality into traditional RWA by combining the power of meme culture and community, creating more attractive, interactive, and innovative financial products. This model not only enhances the market performance of RWAs but also drives innovation and development across the blockchain financial sector. The RWA space is filled with opportunities but also faces many challenges.Regulation and compliance, insufficient liquidity, technological and operational risks, and market acceptance are the current main pain points.However, asset diversification, stable cash flow and returns, market expansion, and innovative development prospects make RWA a highly watched area in the crypto market.
