## Team / Description

# AREAL Finance

### The RWA DeFi Hub — Real Yield, Real Ownership, Real Governance

> One protocol to unify real-world asset liquidity, distribute real yield, and govern capital through prediction markets — not politics.

---

## Round: Pre-Seed

**Stage:** Proven concept with a completed pilot — tokenization of a vehicle in Dubai.
Now focused on shipping the product, executing the second RWA pilot, and integrating the legal structure for token issuance.

**Hard Cap:** $50,000
**Runway:** 6–8 months at current burn rate — sufficient to deliver MVP, tokenize the first assets, and begin the next fundraising round.

---

## The Problem

The RWA sector is broken in three fundamental ways:

**Fragmented Liquidity** — Every RWA protocol issues separate tokens per asset, creating dozens of isolated micro-liquidity pools. Capital is trapped. Price discovery fails. Yield stays siloed.

**Opaque Yield** — Revenue flows are managed off-chain with no visibility for token holders. There's no standardized system — just trust assumptions where verification should be.

**Broken Governance** — Decisions are driven by whoever is loudest, not whoever is most informed. Voter apathy, governance capture, and narrative-driven capital allocation erode long-term value.

---

## The Solution

AREAL is a **full-stack on-chain protocol** that solves all three — through one unified system:

| Pillar | What It Does |
|---|---|
| **RWT (Real World Token)** | Aggregates yield from all RWA projects into a single, appreciating token — eliminating liquidity fragmentation |
| **Native DEX** | Purpose-built exchange that passes embedded yield to LPs — not just swap fees |
| **Futarchy Governance** | Replaces voting with prediction markets — decisions are evaluated by expected economic outcomes, not popularity |

---

## Target Market

**Primary Users:**
- **Crypto-native investors** seeking stable, real yield without active trading
- **Freelancers & digital nomads** looking for compounding income from real economic activity
- **AI agents** — AREAL's architecture is designed from day one for autonomous portfolio management

**Competitive Edge:**
- **Only protocol** that unifies RWA liquidity into a single appreciating token
- **Only protocol** using futarchy for RWA governance — decisions backed by economic stakes, not votes
- **No staking required** — hold tokens, earn yield every second, claim anytime
- **Yield pass-through DEX** — LPs earn swap fees + embedded token yield + protocol incentives

---

## Use of Funds — $50,000

### Allocation Breakdown

| Category | Allocation | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Balance Treasuries** | 80% | $40,000 | DAO treasury reserves backing RWT value and protocol operations |
| **Protocol Liquidity** | 20% | $10,000 | Initial DEX liquidity for ARL |

### Spending & Governance

Current spending is focused exclusively on **smart contract development and deployment**. The team operates in bootstrapping mode — no overhead, no office, no excess.

Detailed spending limits and budget allocation will be formalized through a **DAO governance proposal** once the futarchy framework is live. Until then, all capital is directed at three priorities: ship the product, execute the second RWA pilot, integrate the legal layer.

This capitalization is sufficient to reach the next milestone. After delivering the full product with DEX, RWT-Wallet, and tokenizing the first assets, the project will be positioned to raise a **seed round** for further growth.

---

## Current Traction

- **Completed pilot:** Vehicle tokenization in Dubai — full cycle from asset registration to token issuance
- **Protocol design:** Architecture, tokenomics, and governance model fully documented
- **Pre-seed:** Raising $50,000 to launch the full product and tokenize first assets

---
