Zoth Launches First Ever RWA Restaking Layer with ZeUSD, Announces Exclusive Pre-Deposit Campaign

[PRESS RELEASE – Dubai, UAE, January 27th, 2025]

Zoth has unveiled its Pre-Deposit Campaign, as a part of its launch of the world’s first restaking layer for Real-World Asset Finance (RWAFi) that is designed to bridge the stability and trust of TradFi with the scalability and innovation of DeFi.

Zoth’s mission is to unlock the $2T tokenized fixed-income market by building a permissionless layer for on-chain and off-chain RWAs. Through the Pre-Deposit Campaign, participants can gain early access to ZeUSD, a stable token fully backed by investment-grade RWAs such as Treasury Bills and ETFs.

This presents an opportunity for early adopters to engage with the next wave of RWAFi, with the potential to earn competitive yields while participating in a dynamic and evolving financial ecosystem.

Democratising Real-World Asset Finance (RWAFi)

The global demand for tokenized RWAs is surging, with products such as Treasury Bills, ETFs, and Money Market Funds becoming increasingly desirable. However, structural inefficiencies and exclusivity within TradFi have limited access to these yield-bearing instruments for retail participants.

Zoth addresses these barriers through its re-staking layer, creating a decentralized ecosystem that democratizes access to RWAs for retail and institutional users alike. With ZeUSD, Zoth delivers a stable, omni-chain token fully backed by high-quality fixed-income assets, combining the stability of TradFi with DeFi’s innovation and scalability.

“This is just the beginning! Our innovative re-staking approach is redefining the way RWAs are brought on-chain. Together, we’re building the future of RWAFi,” added Pritam Dutta, Founder & CEO of Zoth.

As Koushik, Co-Founder & CTO of Zoth, opines, “At Zoth, we believe RWAFi’s full potential lies in inclusivity. Our mission is to ensure every user—big or small—has equal access to high-quality financial instruments.”

Key Features and Benefits of ZeUSD

ZeUSD is Zoth’s omni-chain, fully composable RWA-backed Collateralised Debt Position (CDP) stable token issued on top of high-quality liquid off-chain or on-chain RWAs like U.S. T-BIlls, ETFs, MMFs, Reverse Repos, etc.

Key Attributes of ZeUSD:

• Fully Collateralized Stability – ZeUSD is backed by a diversified mix of high-quality RWAs, ensuring trust and transparency.
• Cross-Chain Compatibility – Seamlessly interoperable across multiple blockchain ecosystems, improving liquidity and composability.
• Permissionless Issuance – Issuance is possible by allowing users to access and collateralize eligible RWAs, ensuring compliance and risk mitigation.
• DeFi Composable – ZeUSD can be seamlessly utilized across DeFi, maximizing yields for holders.
• Boosted Incentives – Stacked incentives comprising underlying RWA yield and boosted Zoth rewards.

Zoth tackles longstanding challenges in the RWA market, including limited accessibility, high fees, and institutional favoritism. By implementing the community-powered re-staking layer, Zoth unlocks a new paradigm of liquidity, accessibility, and incentives for all participants.

The ZeUSD Pre-Deposit Campaign

Zoth’s pre-deposit campaign offers participants an early opportunity to engage with ZeUSD and gain access to exclusive stacked rewards in a decentralized ecosystem.

Pre-depositors will be the first to mint ZeUSD with the RWAs of their choice from a list of curated RWA partners as part of Zoth’s ecosystem, which includes Hashnote USYC, Zoth ZTLN Prime, Matrixdock STBT, and OpenEden TBILL. Zoth’s re-staking layer via ZeUSD is actively onboarding more RWA partners, creating inclusive access across the RWAFi ecosystem.
