ChainGamer #WeAreXDC

Introducing Raze Pulse ⚡️ We’re launching our weekly update series to bring you the most important developments across Raze, real-world assets, and on-chain finance. Here’s what happened this week. ⬇️ March 20, 2026 - March 27, 2026 • • • • • • • • • Critical Minerals Momentum In a recent @Genfinity interview, Terry Duffy of Lionheart Capital shared a bold outlook on critical minerals, noting that “the rally hasn’t even begun.” The discussion highlighted how tokenization can transform financing for resource-heavy industries, unlocking greater access, efficiency, and transparency. Watch the interview here: x.com/Genfinity/stat… • • • • • • • • • Raze 4.0 Launch Raze v4.0 is officially live. With CCTP (powered by @circle ) now integrated, USDC holders across major chains can seamlessly enter Raze Vaults without relying on traditional bridges or wrapped assets, keeping capital native and secure. • • • • • • • • • New RWA Vaults Incoming Three new real-world asset (RWA) products are coming online: B2B financing, agricultural financing, and private credit. These additions expand access to diversified, real-world yield, continuing to bridge traditional finance with on-chain infrastructure. This is what Raze is built for: Real assets. Real cash flow. On-chain.

Most DeFi yield is fake. Here's how to tell the difference and what real yield actually looks like. Fake yield: you deposit tokens → you earn more tokens → the 'yield' is just inflation. When everyone sells those reward tokens, the APY collapses. You've been earning monopoly money. Real yield: the return comes from actual economic activity. A borrower pays interest. An asset generates income. A trade generates fees. The yield exists independent of token price. RWA vaults are the clearest example of real yield on-chain. A tokenized private credit facility pays interest. A tokenized commodity generates income from its underlying activity. That income flows to vault holders in USDC. On @XDCNetwork, Raze vaults are built on this principle. The yield you earn comes from real assets, not token emissions. USDC in. Real yield out. That's the difference. @XDCFoundation

BlackRock’s latest comments on tokenization point to a broader shift in capital markets. In his 2026 letter to investors, Larry Fink said tokenization can make investments easier to issue, trade, and access. This is where the conversation is heading - better rails, broader access, and more modern market infrastructure.

⛏️ TOKENIZING THE FINANCING BEHIND CRITICAL MINERALS & METALS MINING ON $XDC One of the more eye-opening interviews I've done. We talk about bringing RWAs onchain, but what about the financing processes behind the RWAs themselves?

Top RWA Tokens by Utilities: What They Actually Do Here's how the major RWA tokens create real-world value: $XDC: Trade finance tokenization, cross-border settlement, enterprise hybrid blockchain for bonds/invoices $ONDO: Tokenized US Treasuries (OUSG, USDY), institutional yield products, BlackRock BUIDL integration, DeFi borrowing/lending $LINK: Oracle infrastructure for 80%+ of RWA protocols, Proof of Reserve for tokenized assets, cross-chain RWA transfers via CCIP $XLM: Fast settlement for tokenized RWAs, hosting Franklin Templeton BENJI fund, 180+ country distribution $PLUME: Gas fees on RWA-optimized L1, yield vaults (Treasuries, private credit, commodities), compliance-embedded smart wallets $CFG: Protocol for tokenizing invoices, credit, real estate, on-chain investment pools (Tinlake), DeFi composability $AVAX: Network hosting RWA subnets, high-throughput settlement, enterprise-grade compliant tokenization $SYRUP: Maple Finance governance, institutional crypto-backed lending pools, staking rewards, DeFi yield access $CPOOL: Institutional unsecured lending, on-chain credit markets, governance and staking $RIO: Real estate and private equity tokenization, fractional ownership, compliant asset issuance $POLYX: Purpose-built blockchain for regulated securities, built-in KYC/AML, institutional-grade asset controls Each token solves a specific RWA problem: yield access, infrastructure, compliance, or tokenization.

Well said. This is a distribution channel. The front door to the network. In my opinion, the biggest blind spot across all networks. I’m excited to see how this could help facilitate adoption and onboarding not just on XDC, but hopefully as a strategy for other networks to follow as well. Crypto cannot just be about the highest APY. It needs non-volatile yield that allows real businesses to use their gains to reinvest into their business. This is operational utility. Please share any feedback as more issuers are onboarded. Good or bad. XDC is a community project, let’s always remember this.

🧵 XDC becomes a home for yield-bearing RWAs as Raze brings real-world yield on-chain @razefinance is bringing a yield-bearing real-world asset platform to the @XDCNetwork, aiming to route stablecoin liquidity into compliant, asset-backed yield instead of purely speculative DeFi strategies. The positioning is clear: $USDC holders should be able to access yield sourced from real-world assets, while institutions and issuers get a more structured way to deploy and raise capital on-chain. Raze describes itself as tokenization infrastructure for RWAs like private credit, real estate, commodities and more, with built-in compliance, onboarding, and smart contract automation as part of the stack. On XDC, the key product narrative is Vault-as-a-Service. Raze says issuers can launch stablecoin-denominated vaults backed by assets like private credit, structured debt, and commodities, while abstracting away tokenization complexity and lifecycle management. This matters because it is not just a new token or a new pool. It is a distribution layer for on-chain capital markets, designed to connect stablecoin-native capital with regulated, asset-backed opportunities. XDC’s side of the story is speed and reliability. The XDC Foundation frames the network as an enterprise-grade environment with fast finality and low transaction costs, which fits the many small interactions must settle cleanly reality of vault and credit workflows. A notable data point in the announcement is the claim that XDC has seen more than $100M in USDC liquidity move on-chain, and that Raze becomes another destination for that capital to earn yield. The XDC Foundation also states it formed a strategic alliance with Raze to bring RAZE on XDC to market, linking this directly to XDC’s broader RWA tokenization and on-chain economy goals. If this executes, the implication is bigger than one integration. It suggests a path where stablecoins become productive capital through real-world collateral, with compliance and onboarding treated as first-class infrastructure rather than an afterthought. The scoreboard will be measurable. Watch vault growth, asset quality, redemption mechanics, transparency, and whether real demand shows up beyond incentives, because that is what separates real RWA rails from marketing.

xdc.org/articles/raze-… 1. #USDC in, #USDC earned each month with no restrictions on transfer. What does this mean? Reinvestment has finally arrived in #crypto. Example, #DeFi platform is an investor. Earns 12% APY through Raze, gains used for rewards on their platform to offer users. Off-chain profit, used as on-chain rewards. 2. Fixes fragmentation of buy-side in the space. Current state of the market, 1 issuer = 1 platform. That’s a lot of platforms for users to find, vet, and trust…With RazeOnXDC, ♾️ issuers = 1 platform. Becomes a directory for #yield products. 3. What does this achieve on a high level for #XDC Network? It allows for capital to enter the ecosystem and stay in the ecosystem. It becomes the economy, where a pool of capital becomes recirculated and is the fuel for the #DeFi space. As this pool grows, new platforms and companies will onboard to capture it. The #infrastructure phase is over. It is now #Execution phase. Get ready!

TOKENIZATION 2.0 ON XDC NETWORK XDC Foundation Executive Director @XinfinUSA on the tokenization trifecta replacing proof-of-concept infrastructure. • Trustworthy: Auditable asset verification and risk assessment tools • Beneficial: Capital demonstrably adding value to operations • Efficient: Infrastructure built for capital efficiency at scale "We're in the era now of capital efficiency."

XDC Network has secured institutional custody support with @BitGo , unlocking regulated custody for XDC tokens and @USDC on the network, a major step toward enabling enterprises, exchanges, and financial institutions to deploy real capital on-chain. With BitGo’s regulated MPC custody via BitGo Bank & Trust, institutional players now get access to best-in-class security and compliance frameworks, something corporates and payment platforms need before they can build on blockchain. This integration strengthens XDC’s position in trade finance, cross-border payments, and tokenized real-world assets, making it more attractive for institutional flows and enterprise adoption.
