Serenity, a blockchain data storage and security pioneer and fintech leader, and Zoniqx, experts in compliant tokenisation of real-world assets (RWAs), have entered into a groundbreaking collaboration to launch a biometric-secured tokenisation pilot in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, within the next six months.
This innovative initiative addresses critical challenges by synchronising digital tokens directly with Dubai’s land-registry title deeds, ensuring a seamless digital and legal asset ownership alignment.
The project represents the first step toward creating an interoperable financial technology bridge connecting capital markets in the U.S. and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), facilitating broader adoption of blockchain-based financial solutions.
The program will leverage Zoniqx’ Dynamic Compliant Interoperable Security Tokens Protocol (DyCIST), ensuring cross-jurisdictional compliance of tokenized assets. With compliance at its core, the partnership delivers a white labeled fusion of Zoniqx’s Tokenized Asset Lifecycle Management from issuance to trading, liquidity, and yield generation, in tandem with Serenity’s decentralized data survivability protocol (DeDaSP) and biometric authentication, a comprehensive B2B real-world-service (RWS). This fusion entails a holistic ecosystem where tokenized assets are both digitally represented and actively utilized within financial services.
“There are plenty of conversations on tokenization in the RWA space, but we are yet to see an applicable utility with which the tokenized assets are used,” said Robert Boris Mofrad, co-founder and chief product officer of Serenity. “Our partnership with Zoniqx takes tokenized assets beyond RWA to a paradigm of RWS where businesses can create, distribute, and manage asset tokens on an API built on a foundation of compliance and decentralized storage.”
Headquartered in Silicon Valley and active across 20+ jurisdictions, Zoniqx has already delivered institutional-grade tokenization frameworks for billions in real-world assets spanning real estate, ESG-linked infrastructure, and alternative finance. Its flagship DyCIST protocol (ERC-7518) has emerged as the de facto compliance-aware token standard, enabling regulated issuance and cross-chain mobility of security tokens. The firm’s platform is battle-tested through large-scale implementations in the U.S., including a $1 billion AI-powered ESG data center fund, tokenized reinsurance contracts, and franchise-based sports equity programs.
“Our pilot project with Zoniqx in Dubai is the first step in addressing the gap between legal and digital ownership and bringing a 360-degree approach to RWA tokenisation for different types of asset classes,” said Venket Naga, co-founder and CEO of Serenity. “This partnership goes beyond creating an ecosystem of holistic solutions; it is a much-needed exploration for regulatory clarity that drives the tokenization space forward. Also, this specific partnership between Zoniqx and Serenity will pave the way for creating a financial bridge between the U.S. and GCC to cross-leverage their respective financial markets using the domain of RWA tokenisation.”
“Our mission is to bring institutional infrastructure and compliance into the global RWA market,” said Prasanth Kalangi, founder and CEO at Zoniqx. “This pilot is not a one-off initiative—it’s part of a larger global expansion where we’re launching dynamic tokenization environments across the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. Our partnership with Serenity brings together Zoniqx’s proven compliance and liquidity rails with next-gen identity protocols to build trust and utility for tokenized assets at scale.”
The system’s multi-chain interoperability and backend infrastructure, built on Serenity’s decentralized identity protocol, will be integrated with the company’s sAxess biometric card, the world’s first fingerprint-authenticated blockchain multi-function cold wallet card. This brings a platform that enables U.S. investors access to GCC assets, creating a financial bridge on top of a tech bridge between the two players.
This collaboration reflects Zoniqx’s broader strategy of integrating with best-in-class infrastructure partners like Serenity while maintaining a neutral, chain-agnostic stance. With over $50 billion in estimated tokenization pipeline and expanding presence across 25+ blockchains, Zoniqx continues to shape the regulatory, technological, and operational framework for the financial internet of the future.
