Animoca Brands, a leading Web3 and blockchain innovator, has taken a bold step to unify and simplify the rapidly growing but fragmented tokenized real-world assets (RWA) market with the launch of NUVA, a next-generation marketplace built on the Provenance Blockchain. This strategic move aims to provide both institutional and retail investors streamlined access to high-quality, tokenized real-world assets across multiple chains.
What is NUVA and Why Is It Important?
NUVA is a blockchain-based vault marketplace co-developed with ProvLabs, the creator of Provenance Blockchain, which currently supports over $15.7 billion in tokenized RWAs. The platform addresses key challenges of the current landscape, where valuable tokenized assets—ranging from yield-bearing stablecoins to pools of fixed-rate home equity loans—are scattered across various marketplaces and chains, limiting investor access and liquidity.
NUVA’s vault system offers investors tradable token claims (vault tokens) backed by real-world financial products, enabling liquidity and composability previously unavailable in traditional finance. This model opens doors for long-unserved investor segments, democratizing exposure to valuable asset classes in a transparent, efficient, and secure manner.
Key Features of NUVA
- Multichain Marketplace: NUVA operates across blockchain networks including Ethereum, Solana, and Base, allowing seamless cross-chain asset trading.
- Initial Vault Offerings: The platform launches with two major vaults:
- nuYLDS — a yield-generating stablecoin product offering around a 4% annual yield.
- nuHELOC — a vault of fixed-rate home equity line of credit loans originated by Figure Technologies, targeting a yield near 9%.
- $NUVA Token: A native utility and governance token for staking, fee payments, and ecosystem incentives.
- Enhanced Liquidity: Vault tokens can be traded on decentralized exchanges, unlocking liquidity for traditionally illiquid assets.
- Transparency & Security: All underlying loans and assets are recorded on-chain, ensuring full transparency and auditability.
Market Outlook and Industry Impact
The tokenized real-world asset market has surged over 380% in recent years, with its total value exceeding $24 billion in 2025 and projections estimating growth up to $16 trillion by 2030. Institutional players like JPMorgan, BlackRock, and RealT have accelerated adoption, fueling demand for products like tokenized treasury bonds, real estate, and private credit.
NUVA’s launch comes at a time when blockchain technology offers compelling advantages for financial services—enabling fractional ownership, 24/7 markets, reduced costs, and automated compliance. By consolidating fragmented platforms, NUVA aims to become a cornerstone for on-chain exposure to tokenized real-world assets, catering to both institutional investors and retail participants.
