Why now
- VARAIn Dubai, real-world asset tokens are issued as asset-referenced virtual assets (ARVAs). Ownership of the asset must be valid and move with the token.
- ADGM · DIFCTokenized real-world assets are treated as digital securities in ADGM and as security tokens in DIFC.
- Real estateDubai Land Department’s pilot used VARA-licensed issuers; one offering was fully funded within a day.
- Oct 2026DMCC saw the first tokenized commodity under its VARA framework: a silver bar, issued as an ARVA.
