Animoca Brands & ProvLabs Launch Game-Changing RWA Vault Marketplace – Bridging Digital and Physical Assets
Web3 giants drop the mic with real-world asset play
Animoca Brands—the blockchain gaming powerhouse—teams up with ProvLabs to crack open the trillion-dollar RWA market. Their new vault marketplace lets investors tokenize everything from real estate to rare whiskies, then trade them like memecoins.
Why this matters
Traditional finance still treats RWAs like museum pieces—locked behind glass with 'do not touch' signs. This partnership effectively smashes the display case, letting DeFi degens and institutional whales swim in the same asset pool.
The cynical take
Wall Street will pretend to hate this while quietly backdooring their own tokenized versions of over-leveraged shopping malls. At least here the smart contracts are (theoretically) auditable—unlike those synthetic CDOs from 2008.
Bottom line: The vault's open. Who's brave enough to dive in?
Q4, 2025 launch
NUVA will initially support two vaults: one for the yield stablecoin YLDS and another for the fixed interest rate home equity loan product HELOCs. The nuYLDS and nuHELOCs vaults will be backed by Figure Technologies and are expected to go live in the fourth quarter of 2025.
“We’re excited NUVA has decided to launch using Figure’s HELOCs and $YLDS as initial assets. It is good to see the platform leverage the unique capabilities of the Provenance Blockchain and contribute to continued expansion in DeFi,” said Mike Cagney, executive chairman of Figure Technologies.
According to Animoca Brands, NUVA will issue a native token to support governance, staking, and other functions within the ecosystem.
Moca Network, the digital identity infrastructure by Animoca Brands, joined forces with LAYER 1 real-world asset platform Plume. The strategic collaboration aims to bring institutional-grade yield and staking opportunities to more than 700 million addressable users.
