The World Economic Forum (WEF) has recognized the XRP Ledger (XRPL) as a core technology in the global push toward asset tokenization.
In its May 2025 report titled “Asset Tokenization in Financial Markets,” the WEF highlighted a landmark development related to XRPL. Specifically, it noted that Aurum Equity Partners had launched the world’s first combined private equity and debt tokenized fund, valued at $1 billion, on the XRPL.

Notably, this tokenized fund leverages XRPL’s decentralized Layer-1 infrastructure to digitize ownership in a traditionally illiquid asset class. The initiative enables greater investor access and liquidity through global secondary markets, reducing barriers to entry and improving transparency.HomeCrypto NewsMarketWorld Economic Forum Spotlights XRP Ledger in Powering $1B Private Equity Tokenization
World Economic Forum Spotlights XRP Ledger in Powering $1B Private Equity Tokenizationdevelopment back in October 2024. At the time, the fund disclosed it would support the development of AI-operated, ESG-focused data centers across the U.S., UAE, Saudi Arabia, India, and Europe.
The initiative utilizes Zoniqx’s Tokenized Asset Lifecycle Management (TALM) platform and the DyCIST protocol to enable secure, compliant, and interoperable financial instruments. By leveraging XRPL’s speed, security, and low cost, the fund aims to increase liquidity and accessibility in traditionally illiquid markets.
Key benefits for investors include access to diversified, liquid, and secure investment options. Meanwhile, for institutions, it offers new revenue opportunities and improved risk management.#XRPledger
