In a significant advancement for the world of digital assets, Serenity Labs Holdings Inc. has unveiled a groundbreaking multi-billion-dollar dual-tokenization framework aimed at precious metals. This initiative, which represents a collaborative effort with prominent technology and infrastructure partners such as Chainlink Labs, Zoniqx, and C-Gold Technologies, aims to establish a new standard for compliant Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization.
At the heart of this initiative is Serenity’s innovative Dual Tokenization Architecture, which is currently patent-pending. This architecture is designed to create a robust model for tokenizing and monetizing physical precious metals, starting with gold and planning to extend to silver and various strategic metals. This new framework is built to facilitate the seamless transition of traditional precious metals into compliant digital markets.
The consortium involved in the project is leveraging diverse expertise across the asset lifecycle, which includes everything from sourcing and custody of the physical metals to on-chain verification, token issuance, and governance. Serenity Labs serves as the lead organizer, contributing its dual-token architecture, as well as biometric security systems and infrastructure developed for real-world services.
Chainlink plays a crucial role by providing Data Feeds, Proof of Reserve, and a Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), which ensures real-time precious-metal pricing and cryptographic verification of assets. These features are vital for maintaining transparency and integrity across blockchain representations of physical assets.
Zoniqx, a fintech company from Silicon Valley, brings its expertise in creating operating systems for tokenization and lifecycle governance of RWAs. This ensures that financial institutions and asset issuers can manage the entirety of the asset lifecycle within a regulatory framework. Meanwhile, C-Gold Technologies provides essential institutional expertise in precious metals, covering aspects such as procurement, price-lock mechanisms, and auditing through a network of regulated global vaults.
The initial deployment of this dual-tokenization framework aims to facilitate the tokenization of up to 100,000 ounces of physical gold, which roughly corresponds to an estimated value of about USD 500 million based on current market prices. Each tokenized unit will be linked to independently audited and deliverable gold stored in regulated vaults, verified through rigorous cryptographic Proof of Reserve mechanisms.
The Dual Tokenization Architecture at the core of the framework features a two-layer system: a Commodity/Institutional Layer and a Utility Layer. The Commodity Layer consists of tokens that represent verified physical gold holdings, while the Utility Layer is a digital token linked to the commodity token that enables various functionalities such as staking and yield participation. This integrated approach not only aligns with institutional risk-management principles but also aims to foster a sustainable ecosystem.
Serenity’s native utility token, $RWS, is poised to serve as the primary service fuel within this ecosystem. It will support various essential functions, including validation, redemption, and audit verification, enhancing the overall compliance of the digital asset framework.
Gold was strategically chosen as the initial asset class due to its renewed significance in the global market. With nations like those in the BRICS alliance pursuing commodity-backed digital currency initiatives, the demand for transparent and compliant digital frameworks for precious metals is on the rise.
The consortium’s framework is designed to cater to institutional issuers, asset managers, financial platforms, and initiatives aligned with sovereign interests, aiming to foster a regulated and interoperable environment for precious-metal tokenization.
“This initiative reflects a shared vision across the consortium to build durable financial infrastructure rather than isolated digital instruments,” stated Venket Naga, Co-Founder and CEO of Serenity Labs. He emphasized the importance of combining physical asset expertise, enterprise tokenization, and decentralized verification to set a new institutional standard for precious-metal RWAs.
Serenity Labs operates as a next-generation data-infrastructure company focused on creating secure digital-asset access, biometric authentication systems, and privacy-preserving storage solutions, ensuring that their digital frameworks remain robust and compliant. Meanwhile, other partners like Chainlink and Zoniqx continue to develop industry-standard practices, enhancing the future of finance through the tokenization of real-world assets.
