🔁 AMA Recap: Inside Our New Chapter

On May 29, our CEO Edwin Mata went live for a no-holds-barred AMA that brought clarity, momentum, and a bold vision for our next phase. From the explosive growth in Total Value Locked (TVL) to a groundbreaking new tokenization standard, this session was a deep dive into what’s shaping the RWA ecosystem and how Brickken is leading it.

‍

Here are the most important highlights:

🧭 A New Milestone: $35M+ in TVL and Accelerating

Edwin confirmed what many had noticed, Brickken’s TVL has now surpassed $35 million, outpacing internal KPIs and surpassing expectations for H1 2025. The uptick reflects successful client issuance, economic tailwinds, and increasing adoption of Brickken’s platform.

‍

“TVL is a symptom of the value we’re delivering. It means our infrastructure works, and our clients are winning.” Edwin Mata

🧪 Towards a Universal RWA Standard: EIP-7943

The major highlight: is the development of a proposed Ethereum standard for tokenized assets, EIP-7943: the Universal RWA Interface (uRWA).

‍

This open standard was authored by co-founder Dario Lo Buglio, which aims to provide a modular, permissionless, and compliant foundation for all RWA implementations– one that is designed to serve the entire Ethereum ecosystem, not just a single company or platform. 

‍

“The goal is simple: a standard that doesn’t belong to Brickken, but to everyone building the future of tokenized finance.” — Edwin Mata

‍

Brickken is collaborating with over 10 other companies, including direct competitors to shape this open standard for the benefit of the entire RWA ecosystem.

⚖️ Tokenization Is Growing—And So Is Market Recognition

Brickken is now in advanced talks with large institutions and funds about tokenizing new asset classes. While specifics are under wraps, Edwin teased:

‍

“By the next AMA, we hope to reveal some of the biggest tokenizations we’ve ever done.”

‍

The pipeline is strong, and the team is focused on quality onboarding, scalable infrastructure, and real business outcomes, not hype.

💬 DAO & Governance? Not Now, But Equity is Coming

When asked about community governance, Edwin acknowledged past DAO experiments but explained why Brickken is not prioritizing decentralized governance at the moment. Instead, he confirmed plans to open equity participation to loyal BKN holders in Brickken’s Series A (2026–27). Inspired by successful models like Hacken, the move would offer token holders a new layer of ownership and alignment with Brickken’s long-term mission.

🧠 Differentiation from Other RWA Players

Brickken’s focus is on private markets, real-world businesses, and fast-moving tokenizations, not just public securities.

‍

“We’re not competing with Securitize or trying to be the Nasdaq of blockchain. We’re bringing private markets on-chain. It’s a different trench—and we’re owning it.”

‍

The company remains chain-agnostic but is exploring zkSync and ZK rollups to enable privacy-preserving, compliant asset issuance for clients in sensitive sectors.

🌍 The Bigger Vision: Unity > Competition

One of the strongest takeaways from the AMA was Edwin’s call for collaboration over competition in the RWA space:

‍

“Our real competitor isn’t another tokenization company, its regulatory fragmentation, slow-moving institutions, and legacy systems. If we want tokenization to succeed, we need standards that everyone can build on.”

📈 So... About That Listing?

Yes, it’s still coming. But Edwin made it clear: the timing must align with our growth strategy, macro trends, and data-driven indicators.

Looking Ahead

This AMA wasn’t just about updates. It was about setting a new tone: we are stepping into the role as leaders, not only in infrastructure but in shaping how the entire tokenization industry matures.

‍

From pushing open standards to onboarding enterprise clients,
From expanding into new chains to launching new products,
From internal alignment to ecosystem-wide collaboration.

Brickken’s next chapter is here.
