What is Real? #

Real is a decentralized L1 blockchain that revolutionizes how SMEs interact with financial markets by tokenizing real-world assets. Whether you’re an SME looking to tokenize assets like real estate, inventory, or intellectual property, or a developer aiming to build on a secure and scalable blockchain, Real provides the tools and infrastructure to make it happen.

Getting Started: Step-by-Step Guide #

Step 1: Set Up a Real Wallet #

To interact with the Real blockchain, you’ll need a Cosmos-compatible wallet.

  1. Choose a Wallet: We recommend using Keplr Wallet — the most widely used wallet for Cosmos SDK-based networks. It is available as a browser extension and a mobile app.

  2. Create or Import a Wallet: Follow the wallet’s instructions to create a new wallet or import an existing one using your private key or seed phrase.

  3. Connect to Real Network: Follow Keplr’s instructions to create a new wallet or import an existing one using your 12- or 24- word seed phrase.

    • Network Name: Real Mainnet

    • RPC URL: https://rpc.real.finance

    • Chain ID: real-mainnet-1

    • Symbol: $ASSET

    • Block Explorer URL: https://explorer.real.finance

Tip: Visit app.real.finance to use the Keplr “Suggest Chain” feature, which will automatically add the Real network to your wallet.

Step 2: Acquire $ASSET Tokens #

$ASSET tokens are the native currency of the Real blockchain, used for transaction fees, smart contract execution, and tokenization processes.

  1. Purchase $ASSET Tokens: You can buy $ASSET tokens on supported exchanges (check our Exchange Partners page).

  2. Receive Test Tokens (Optional): If you’re exploring the Real Testnet, request test tokens via our Faucet.

  3. Transfer to Your Wallet: Send $ASSET tokens to your wallet address to start interacting with the network.

Step 3: Explore Tokenization for SMEs #

Real streamlines the process of tokenizing real-world assets, making it accessible for SMEs. Here’s how to get started:

  1. Register Your Business: Sign up on the Real platform at app.real.finance and complete the KYC/AML verification process to ensure compliance.

  2. Submit Asset Details: Provide information about the asset you want to tokenize (e.g., real estate, equipment, or invoices). Real’s platform guides you through the process, including legal and regulatory checks.

  3. Tokenize Your Asset: Use Real’s tokenization wizard to create a digital token representing your asset. This token can be fractionalized, traded, or used in DeFi protocols.

  4. Access Liquidity: List your tokenized asset on Real’s marketplace or partner exchanges to unlock liquidity and attract RWA investors globally.

Step 4: Leverage Decentralization Benefits #

Real’s decentralized architecture ensures that all transactions and tokenization processes are transparent and secure.

  • Verify Transactions: Use the Real Block Explorer explorer.real.finance to track your tokenized assets and transactions.

  • Engage with the Community: Join our X Channel (Twitter) or Telegram to connect with other SMEs, RWA investors, and developers.

Step 5: For Developers – Build on Real #

Real’s L1 blockchain is developer-friendly, with robust tools for building dApps and smart contracts.

  1. Set Up Your Environment: Follow our Developer Guide to set up your development environment.

  2. Access APIs and SDKs: Access Real’s REST, gRPC, and WebSocket APIs, as well as Cosmos SDK-compatible libraries, to integrate tokenization features into your dApps.

  3. Deploy Smart Contracts: Build and deploy smart contracts using CosmWasm, Cosmos’ contract engine, with support for RWA tokenization standards.
