Asset class

Hard asset tokenization

Hard asset tokenization gives investors fractional ownership of physical assets such as real estate, hedge funds, ships and industrial machinery. A Trust or SPV holds the asset, and PazaLabs issues ERC-3643 tokens that carry proportional income and governance rights.

What hard asset tokenization does

Unlock liquidity from physical assets — fractional ownership of real estate, hedge funds, ships, and industrial machinery — with enforceable economic rights embedded directly in each token. A Trust/SPV custodies the physical asset while PazaLabs issues ERC-3643 tokens that give holders proportional income rights, governance participation, and primary/secondary market liquidity.

Who it's for

  • Commercial real estate owners seeking capital without full divestiture
  • Ship and fleet operators needing working capital
  • Industrial equipment owners monetizing underutilized assets
  • Institutional investors seeking yield-bearing alternative assets
