Description

What if you could leverage real estate like a DeFi asset? In this episode, I sit down with Kevin Rusher, co-founder of RAAC, to discuss how they’re revolutionizing Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization. RAAC is bridging the gap between real estate, gold, and DeFi, unlocking liquidity and enabling lending, staking, and more—all on-chain. We dive into: ✅ How RAAC tokenizes real estate as 1:1 backed NFTs ✅ Their strategy for onboarding the next $100B into DeFi ✅ The challenges of regulation and liquidity in RWA markets ✅ How they integrate Curve Finance and auto-compounding for yield generation ✅ The future of gold-backed stablecoins and institutional adoption This conversation is a must-listen for crypto investors, DeFi enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the tokenization of real-world assets.
