At Brickken, we believe that the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs) needs a solid, flexible foundation; one that can evolve with regulation, DeFi composability, and market needs. That’s why we’re excited to share a new open standard emerging from our ecosystem: the Universal RWA Interface (uRWA).
Created by our co-founder Dario Lo Buglio, who also serves as a senior security researcher at OpenZeppelin, EIP-7943 introduces uRWA as a standardized framework to support the next generation of secure, compliant, and interoperable tokenized assets.
Many existing RWA standards are either too rigid, catered to private, narrow platforms or too broad, attempting to address every use case and sacrificing clarity and composability in the process. As a result, they make it harder for institutions, developers, and regulators to collaborate, integrate, or scale solutions.
uRWA is designed to fix this.
"The one-size-fits-all approach stifles innovation and creates unnecessary complexity. uRWA provides the essential building blocks for modular, compliant RWA tokenization." — Dario Lo Buglio, Co-Founder & EIP-7943 Author
uRWA is a universal interface that works with ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155, giving it broad compatibility across Ethereum token types. It introduces a set of core functionalities needed to responsibly tokenize any financial instrument; from equities to debt, from real estate to commodities.
Key Features:
Unlike closed-loop standards that only serve specific providers, uRWA is open, modular, and community-driven. Developers can build on it, extend it, and adapt it to fit unique asset types or jurisdictional needs.
In fact, Brickken is already working on a complementary specification to enable asset-type-specific behavior (e.g., real estate vs. bonds) and plug-and-play modules for things like dividends, vesting, or access rights.
We envision a plug-and-play ecosystem where the entire community collaborates on a library of uRWA extensions for any RWA class.
uRWA is now live as EIP-7943. We invite all developers, institutions, and ecosystem participants to participate in shaping the standard:
This is a major step toward making tokenized finance accessible, secure, and compliant at scale. If you’re building in the RWA space, uRWA is the standard to watch—and contribute to.
Brickken is an institutional-grade platform enabling the compliant issuance, management, and scaling of tokenized real-world assets. Trusted by leading asset managers, funds, and enterprises, Brickken provides a full infrastructure suite to bring RWAs on-chain with confidence.
