Tokenforge is a Germany-based infrastructure provider for the compliant tokenization of Real-World Assets (RWA). Since 2021, it has launched over 30 TokenSuite instances across five EU jurisdictions, fully aligned with MiCAR, eWpG, MiFID II, and national frameworks. The core product, TokenSuite, is API-first and modular, integrating KYC/KYB, e-signatures, custody, payments, and other regulated third-party services. Built under BaFin oversight, tokenforge integrates blockchain technology with traditional financial infrastructure.

The infrastructure will be expanded with EchoLayer, a decentralized network layer that enables cross-platform asset interaction, affiliate programs, and shared market access. Complementing this, IRIS is an AI-powered insights engine in development, designed to provide advanced analytics and decision support for asset structuring, placement, and lifecycle management within the ecosystem. At the core of tokenforge’s infrastructure is $TKFG, the native utility token. It enables issuers to access a 20% discount on service fees through staking and unlocks further benefits as the ecosystem evolves. tokenforge’s infrastructure is designed for institutional-grade scalability and positions itself as a foundational layer for the regulated digital asset industry in Europe.

As we envision the web3 space to become agentic and overtake humans in the amount of transactions over time, what Rivalz is building is key for enabling this future. The core challenge that Rivalz is addressing is the need for AI-ready, verifiable and accessible data and later on intelligence. Rivalz offers a hybrid solution combining decentralized storage and high-speed agent-centric connectivity networks that cater specifically to AI's demands, ushering in the era of the agentic economy.

Xsure
Xsure is a decentralized risk management platform that facilitates real-time communication between insurance providers and the end customer. With the help of machine learning and blockchain trust-less governance technologies we have managed to eliminate third parties from the whole insurance life-cycle and turn it into a dynamic process instead of a static one.
Upcoming
MeconCash
We intend to develop MeconCash into a platform that allows user’s assets to be transferred and traded between different types of services by integrating point reward systems, contents purchase, and settlement, which are currently operated separately between existing services and those under development. To that end, we will build the reward and settlement system, develop the API to connect it with other services, and build an ecosystem that can be used in the on- and off-line real economy. All this will ensure the usability, connectivity, and sustainability of MeconCash. We will develop a variety of mobile-based applications, games, and contents on the platform and link it with such services as online marketplaces where users can purchase products. The reward system used by a service generally invalidates the rewards owned by users when the service is terminated. MeconCash, however, can transform the rewards obtained from using our services into valuable assets. As such, users will be able to fulfill the demand for new services with MeconCash even when the services they use are terminated, make transactions between them, and use the assets in the real economy. We will stabilize the MeconCash ecosystem by developing new blockchain-based businesses and linking it with external services which already exists. Additionally, MeconCash will be available in 70% of ATMs in Korea so that users can directly withdraw MeconCash to fiat money.
