$Asset Now Available on Kraken EU as REAL Finance Expands European Reach

REAL Finance has made it easier for eligible European users to access its native $ASSET token, listing it on Kraken EU.

The expansion comes as demand grows in Europe for infrastructure supporting tokenized financial assets. REAL Finance's network supports various functions within the REAL Finance ecosystem, including paying transaction fees, participating in staking, and taking part in on-chain governance.

The company is targeting over €3.5 billion in assets for tokenization through its European institutional ecosystem, which it's building with partners like Wiener Privatbank, an Austrian bank regulated by the FMA. The network's infrastructure connects regulated financial institutions, custodians, and other counterparties with blockchain-based capital markets.

'Europe is a key market for REAL Finance as we build the infrastructure connecting regulated financial institutions with onchain capital markets,' said CEO Ivo Grigorov. 'Expanding access to $ASSET through Kraken EU gives more participants in the region a way to engage with the network as that institutional ecosystem grows.'

REAL Finance's strategy remains centered on bringing regulated financial assets and associated capital-market activities on-chain.
