Updated over a week ago

Defactor is a token-powered ecosystem which facilitates the tokenisation of real world assets. Bridging the gap between Trad-Fi and DeFi, the Defactor mission is to create the infrastructure and ‘rails’ for the creation of new business models all around the world.

Our roadmap can be found on the home page of our website.


What is the purpose and value proposition of Defactor?

Defactor is revolutionising finance by bridging the gap between Real-World Assets (RWA) and Decentralised Finance (DeFi). We democratise access to financial opportunities through asset tokenisation, offering a robust toolkit for businesses worldwide. Our team of passionate innovators believes in collaboration and open dialogue, fostering a vibrant community that contributes to our network's growth. Read here to learn more about Defactor.

What is Defactor’s competitive advantage compared to other RWA tokenisation players?

Defactor’s strength is around providing a robust tokenisation infrastructure with industry leading token standards for RWA. However, this space is indeed getting crowded, and a very important advantage of collaborating with Defactor is their aspiration and ability to enable efficient interaction with the assets, once they’re tokenised.

Defactor’s team is currently engaged in discussions with various tokenisation ecosystems to integrate elements of their technology, enhancing existing infrastructure of the partners. The team sees everyone as partners, not competitors. Additionally, certain players concentrate on specific regions or jurisdictions where Defactor’s expertise or licensing partnerships might be lacking.

What are the Defactor toolkit modules?

Defactor helps businesses and individuals access and interact with tokenised assets. Defactor has a suite of tokenisation tools that include 3 key components: Pools, Engage & Assets.

ASSETS is dedicated to the creation and management of tokenised assets. It includes tools for the tokenisation process, enabling businesses to create digital representations of real-world assets. These tokens can then be integrated into DeFi applications and used in various financial transactions​.

POOLS focuses on lending and borrowing activities within the DeFi space. It provides infrastructure for creating and managing DeFi lending pools, where tokenised real-world assets can be used as collateral for loans, enhancing liquidity and accessibility for asset owners​.

ENGAGE is designed to facilitate community interaction and engagement within the Defactor ecosystem. It is for platforms with their own native token to power their ecosystem with staking, governance, voting and bounty programs.

These toolkit modules collectively enable businesses to leverage blockchain technology for enhanced liquidity, security, and accessibility in financial operations.

Do Toolkit users need to have an experienced team of blockchain engineers to be able to integrate with the three modules?

You will need a team of developers, who will be assisted by Defactor. However, there is no need for your team to be experienced to carry out any of our toolkits. Our tech documentation is becoming increasingly robust for projects to go ahead and implement their product development around Defactor tools. Defactor’s tech team is constantly adding new documentation for developers to work with. Check it out here.

What about Toolkit users coming from traditional industries without even having a tech team? Can they partner with Defactor?

Absolutely. The Defactor team works with a wide variety of traditional companies across a wide array across all asset classes. To learn more about how we can help you tokenize your assets, schedule a call with us here.

Who are the members of the (founding) team?

The founding team is made up of a mix of trad-fi, technology and blockchain experts with decades of collective expertise. You can find our team here.

Is Defactor set up as a DAO?

Yes, the Defactor Association is set up as a DAO with the community having a say in the strategy and direction of the ecosystem via a signal and support governance model.

In which country and legal jurisdiction is Defactor registered?

The Defactor Association is based in Switzerland. We have a partner network that spans around the world with business models being built on the Defactor rails.
