# Areal DAO
|
|
|
|
Areal is a full-stack RWA (real-world asset) DeFi protocol focused on tokenizing small and medium business assets, providing liquidity infrastructure, and implementing futarchy-based governance. The platform aims to solve fragmented RWA liquidity through an index token (RWT) that aggregates yield across project tokens.
|
|
|
|
Areal completed a pilot in September 2025 tokenizing a vehicle in Dubai ($25K raised, 120 participants, ~26% APY through carsharing revenue). The team attempted a Futardio launch in March 2026 targeting $50K but only raised $11,654 before entering REFUNDING status.

|
|
## Timeline
|
|
|
|
- **2025-09** — Pilot launch: tokenized 2023 Mini Cooper in Dubai, raised $25,000 from 120 participants, achieved ~26% APY through carsharing revenue split (60% to token holders, 40% to operator)
|
|
- **2026-03-07** — Futardio fundraise launch targeting $50,000 at $129,000 valuation
|
|
- **2026-03-08** — Futardio fundraise closed with $11,654 raised (23.3% of target), entered REFUNDING status

## Relationship to KB
|
|
|
|
- Demonstrates RWA tokenization for small-scale assets (vehicles, hospitality)
|
|
- Failed futarchy-governed fundraise provides counterpoint to successful launches like CULT
|
|
- Targets SMB asset tokenization as underserved market versus equity-focused RWA platforms
|
|
- Proposes index token mechanism (RWT) to unify fragmented RWA liquidity |
