“A groundbreaking year behind us, an ambitious future ahead.”
TLDR;
The January 2025 AMA highlighted IX Swap’s 2024 achievements and ambitious strategies for the year ahead. As the "Uniswap of RWAs," IX Swap continues to lead in tokenizing real-world assets by seamlessly integrating liquidity, compliance, and scalability. The session offered valuable insights into the evolving RWA landscape, key partnerships, and rebranding initiatives, setting the stage for an exciting and impactful 2025.
Julian's Introduction and Overview:
Julian reflected on a transformative 2024, highlighting key milestones such as the backing of Coinbase Ventures and integration of the Base chain for cross-chain interoperability, which paves the way to deliver RWA assets to the 150M+ Coinbase users. This was pivotal in driving scalability and accessibility. Additionally, the launch of new liquidity pools and major partnerships with LINE and Clearpool were significant achievements. These milestones showcased IX Swap’s focus on innovation and scalability.
He also noted the rapid growth of tokenized RWAs, with institutional players driving adoption of on-chain Treasury and money market assets. This momentum attracted high-net-worth individuals, crypto hedge funds, and institutional investors seeking diversification and higher returns through yield-bearing RWA products.
“In 2024, the crypto industry has realized the immense utility of RWAs, especially Treasury and money market tokens, which have clear product market fit. IX Swap is built to provide RWA tokens to any crypto exchange or DeFi wallet, and we are excited by our RWA partnership pipeline of institutions and crypto exchanges,” Julian remarked.
In 2025, IX Swap is doubling down on its efforts to establish itself as the premier platform for tokenized real-world assets. Key initiatives include:
In 2025, IX Swap is prioritizing mass listings and business-focused deals through expanded B2B partnerships. By working with issuance partners to onboard multiple assets at once, the platform leverages its SaaS foundation to streamline operations and boost scalability.
Significant strides in distribution channels, like enhanced API integrations with crypto exchanges and wallets, have resolved prior funding reliance on internal networks. These improvements position IX Swap to launch 2-3 deals monthly, underscoring its commitment to scaling operations and consistently delivering value to the ecosystem.
Julian described the LINE partnership as the most significant RWA collaboration ever announced. He explained that LINE, with its 200 million active users, offers IX Swap an unparalleled distribution channel. The collaboration integrates IX Swap’s RWA tokenization solutions into the LINE ecosystem, enabling seamless user access.
“We aim to onboard more investors and increase token accessibility through partnerships with leading fintech platforms,” Julian stated.
Julian emphasized the necessity of regulatory compliance, particularly in the U.S. He cited examples of major players like Crypto.com and Coinbase pursuing licenses to integrate RWAs into their offerings. He noted that the evolving regulatory landscape in the U.S. presents both challenges and opportunities, with the recent administration change potentially paving the way for greater clarity and institutional adoption of blockchain-based financial solutions. By securing licenses and adhering to regulations, IX Swap positions itself as a trusted partner for institutions.
Aaron highlighted integrations with new blockchain partners to enhance interoperability and expand IX Swap’s ecosystem. He pointed out the Clearpool partnership, which introduced collateralization for private credit assets—a groundbreaking initiative for private markets. Clearpool’s decentralized credit marketplace ($645M cumulative loans issued) aligns with IX Swap’s mission to tackle liquidity challenges in the RWA space.
“We see immense potential in combining traditional finance instruments like private credit with decentralized finance capabilities,” Aaron noted.
Aaron highlighted the onboarding of four SaaS clients and the focus on improving distribution channels to facilitate mass asset listings. He also detailed plans to scale IX Swap’s SaaS offerings and enhance integration with crypto exchanges and wallets.
Julian explained that the unique nature of RWAs complicates TVL calculations. IX Swap is collaborating to refine these metrics while securing partnerships with institutional players to boost TVL visibility and legitimacy. These efforts aim to highlight IX Swap’s growing market impact, leveraging its strengths in compliance and innovative liquidity solutions.
“We’re addressing industry-wide challenges in RWA valuation and working to increase transparency for metrics like TVL,” Julian stated.
Julian shared details of the rebranding initiative, which aims to position IX Swap as a premier institutional-grade platform while maintaining its focus on democratizing access. The refreshed branding will highlight robust compliance features and a user-friendly approach to appeal to both institutional and retail audiences. This includes a new logo, revamped website, and updated messaging to enhance clarity, attract larger distribution channels, and showcase IX Swap’s focus on high-value, compliant RWA offerings.
