1. Could you explain what Aconomy is for those who might not know? What are its core mission and values?
Aconomy is the first fully decentralized P2P marketplace for real-world assets (RWAs), that bridges tangible real-world assets directly into DeFi. From watches and art to real estate and collectibles, Aconomy transforms physical assets into 1:1 tokenized, tradeable NFTs that are DeFi-ready — all without intermediaries and no fractionalization. Unlike other RWA platforms that stop at digital representation or tokenize via custodians and institutions, Aconomy enables direct user-level participation, validation, and financialization of real, physical assets — peer-to-peer. Rooted in the decentralised network of RWA Validator nodes, validators in the Aconomy network aren’t just appraisers — they are the on-chain oracles for the physical world, turning tangible assets into liquid instruments within the DeFi ecosystem.
Vision
Aconomy aims to become the leading decentralized ecosystem for real-world asset trading, validation, and financial innovation. It’s not just about tokenization — it’s about enabling real assets to unlock financial utility within the decentralized economy, where they can be traded, auctioned, lent, or used as collateral on-chain.
How It Works: The Three Key Players
🔹 Asset Owner – Brings real-world assets on-chain and creates Asset NFTs.
🔹 Asset Validator – Verifies asset authenticity and mints Pi-NFTs as proof of validation.
🔹 Investor – Investors can finally gain exposure to physically-backed, verified Pi- NFTs and deploy them across DeFi — from swaps to lending protocols — bridging traditional value into the on-chain economy.
Core Mission & Values
🔹 DeFi-Enabled Ownership – Empowering individuals to bring their physical wealth on-chain and use it in decentralized financial systems — trade, borrow, or earn yields.
🔹 Decentralization at the Core – Removing intermediaries and centralized control, enabling direct peer-to-peer asset trade and ownership.
🔹 Asset-to-DeFi Flow – Making tokenized asset onboarding effortless, and instantly usable within DeFi protocols.
🔹 Verified & Transparent Ownership – Establishing trust through decentralised validator nodes, ensuring asset authenticity and ownership transparency.
🔹 Borderless & Inclusive Marketplace – Providing permissionless access to global users, enabling anyone, anywhere to trade and tokenize assets freely.
Aconomy is redefining RWA trade and ownership by making asset transactions secure, efficient, and fully decentralized.

This provides immediate liquidity for operations, expansion, or investment, while ensuring the assets remain verifiable, tradeable, and accessible on-chain.
