Asset tokenization
Real-world asset tokenization, with the rules inside the token
How it works
One register that issuer, holder and auditor all read
Asset types
Two kinds of asset, one ledger
Assets people pay and save with
Dollar and local-currency tokens, bank deposit tokens and gold or silver measured in grams. They need a stable reserve, quick redemption and a named issuer.
- Stable dollars
- Deposit tokens
- Gold grams
- Local currencies
Assets people invest in
Equities, fund shares, government and corporate bonds, private credit and property interests. They need holder rules, corporate actions and a trail regulators can follow.
- Equities
- Fund shares
- Bonds
- Private credit
- Property

Why issue on Gleo
What makes Gleo a fit for asset issuance
- 01
Controls are part of the asset
Holder approval, freeze and clawback are settings on the token itself, fixed at issue. A regulated issuer does not have to bolt on a separate permission layer, and a buyer can see which controls apply before buying. - 02
Fees you can budget for
Every operation pays a small network fee in ETH at the going rate. The live network panel prices a transfer every few seconds, so a forecast can be checked against reality at any time. - 03
Final settlement within a block
Robinhood Chain confirms transactions in well under a second on average, so a transfer or redemption is done when the block is. - 04
Distribution through ordinary wallets
Any EVM wallet that can reach Robinhood Chain can hold an approved token, and anchors give holders a route back to cash as they are listed.

Practice mode
Rehearse an issuance before you commit
The Tokenize console walks through defining an asset, choosing its controls, approving holders, minting, freezing and clawing back. Each step is signed with your wallet as a free practice receipt.
No transaction is sent: the Gleo issuance contracts are not deployed, so nothing in the console touches the chain.
Field scenario
A bullion dealer turns vaulted gold into a savings token
One token per allocated gram, holder approval from day one and supply anyone can compare with the vault report. An illustrative plan, worked through step by step.
