Securitize and Elixir launch “sToken,” enabling institutional investors to access DeFi liquidity while retaining yields from tokenized RWAs.
Securitize has partnered with Elixir to launch a new token, “sToken,” aimed at offering Real World Asset (RWA) holders access to decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidity. This innovation, based on ERC-4626 vault technology. It enables institutional investors to use the RWAs issued by Securitize while retaining the yields of the underlying assets.
Elixir partners with a very important player in the financial market namely Securitize that has new prospects for institutional investors. This synergy links Securitize’s $1 billion in RWAs with Elixir’s deUSD RWA Institutional Program. The situation enables institutions to engage with DeFi liquidity and take returns on traditional investments at the same time. Institutional clients accessing Securitize Credit, a subsidiary of Securitize, can benefit from a higher yield and composability.
Carlos Domingo, Co-founder and CEO of Securitize, also noticed the possibilities of the new sToken functionality. He said that it fits in between the physical and tangible economy and the digital economy. This helps investors to track and analyze their investments and make better decisions. Now institutional holders can obtain liquidity in deUSD while at the same time earning yields from their initial investments.
Elixir and Securitize Innovate with “sToken” to Diversify Institutional Portfolios
Elixir’s Founder & CEO, Philip Forte said in a statement: “It’s great to be a part of such a partnership that represents true 0 to 1 innovation within the DeFi space.” Elixir’s network includes exchange order books and deUSD – a decentralized stablecoin. For the first time, tokenized RWAs can be used natively in DeFi, providing users with liquidity without endangering them. The partnership is said to help to get liquidity closer to institutional investors, which connects Wall Street with the digital asset sphere.
This partnership changes the dynamics of how institutional investors can engage with DeFi. The sToken also introduces new prospects for diversification into portfolio as by acquiring deUSD, RWAs can obtain yield while receiving the necessary liquidity. It also drives the effort of integrating CeFi and DeFi closer together as one.
Ultimately, this partnership provides institutional investors with a way to get exposed to the burgeoning DeFi market while not compromising on their steady and high earnings in regular investments. Both companies are still developing and the future of asset tokenization and DeFi integration seems bright.
