Ozean, the blockchain for Real-World Asset (RWA) yield being launched by Clearpool, has announced a strategic partnership with Tiamonds, the world’s largest tokenized diamond marketplace. This collaboration simplifies diamond investments through tokenization and brings them to the Ozean ecosystem, expanding the range of RWAs available and enhancing investment opportunities for users.
Tiamonds: Advancing Diamond Ownership
Tiamonds offers a way for investors to own and trade real-world diamonds through blockchain technology. The marketplace will deploy on Ozean’s mainnet, providing a secure and transparent method for users to invest in diamonds.
“Our partnership with Ozean represents an important step forward in the tokenization of Diamonds. By integrating our tokenized diamonds (and other unique product offerings) into Ozean’s ecosystem, we’re expanding access to this unique asset class and paving the way for more innovative financial products in the RWA space.” said Steven Gaertner, Head of Tiamonds.
Ozean: Developing the Future of RWA
Ozean is changing the DeFi landscape by incorporating RWAs in a regulatory-compliant and user-friendly manner. As a permissionless Ethereum Layer 2 and part of the Optimism Superchain, Ozean allows users to automatically generate native yield on-chain while offering an optional compliance layer for improved interoperability with permissioned protocols.
“The integration of Tiamonds into the Ozean ecosystem aligns with our mission to bring a diverse range of RWAs to DeFi. This partnership not only introduces a new asset class to Ozean but also sets the stage for exploring broader commodities markets and developing innovative products like commodities baskets,” said Jakob Kronbichler, CEO & Co-founder of Ozean.
Expanding the RWA Horizon
The collaboration between Ozean and Tiamonds will change how investors interact with physical assets in the digital realm. By bringing tokenized diamonds to the Ozean platform, users can access a unique asset class known for its stability and potential for long-term value appreciation. This partnership also sets the stage to expand into other commodities, potentially leading to the creation of diverse RWA baskets that could offer new yield opportunities and portfolio diversification options for DeFi users.
As Ozean continues to grow its ecosystem and integrate projects like Tiamonds, the platform is well-positioned to drive the adoption of RWAs in the broader DeFi landscape, offering users access to RWAs and yield opportunities.
