RWA tokenization and institutional integration
A key milestone is Velo’s collaboration with EVOLVE Chain, built on Avalanche infrastructure, to tokenize electric vehicles and green energy assets. The initiative aims to enable fractional ownership and on-chain financing for sustainable assets, bringing RWAs into the blockchain economy at scale.
Velo has also partnered with Lightnet and OpenEden to launch a Treasury-as-a-Service (TaaS) framework and the ASEAN Settlement Network. Through this setup, users can access yield-bearing, tokenized U.S. Treasury products while benefiting from faster regional settlements powered by blockchain rails. Separately, the protocol facilitated the on-chain debut of NASDAQ-listed UCAR’s battery swap technology via the PicWe Launchpad, marking another step in onboarding traditional enterprises into Web3.
Payments, liquidity, and web3 infrastructure growth
On the payments front, Velo is co-developing the Orbit Plus Super App with EVOLVE and Lightnet, currently in beta. The application combines multi-chain wallets, RWA trading, loyalty rewards, and PayFi tools into a single blockchain-enabled interface.
Liquidity access has also improved following Velo’s spot listing on OKX Singapore and the launch of perpetual futures on KuCoin, broadening exposure to institutional and regulated markets. These advances build on existing integrations with major crypto players and government-linked pilots in Southeast Asia.
According to Velo Labs, the protocol’s blockchain architecture centers on a federated credit exchange network, fiat-pegged digital credits, and compliance-focused on-chain infrastructure. In other blockchain news, Weewux, a UK-based blockchain gaming innovator, officially launched its next-generation platform, aiming to transform digital asset ownership and in-game economies.
