Storm Trade, a leading decentralized derivatives exchange built on the TON blockchain, has launched real-world asset (RWA) futures trading, starting with oil (WTI, Brent), gold, and silver.
This significant milestone enables traders to access traditional financial markets directly through a decentralized platform, bridging the gap between traditional finance and DeFi.
What are RWAs and why are they important?
Real-world assets (RWAs) are physical or tangible assets—such as commodities, real estate, or equities—that are tokenized and brought into blockchain ecosystems. By making these assets accessible in DeFi, RWAs create opportunities to earn on tangible markets that are less volatile compared to speculative assets like meme coins.
