ACATS might have looked revolutionary in the late 1970's, but its painfully outdated now. ACATS is a boomer, while RWA tokenization is Gen Alpha (born after 2010).
RWA Tokens represent an alternative solution to ACATS. RWA Tokenization offers new capabilities that will revolutionize finance, and Borderless.Fi is at the forefront of this innovation.
Global and Borderless
Decentralized exchanges operating on the blockchain can be access from anywhere; all you require is the internet.
T+0 settlement
It takes <1 second (260ms) for tokens to be transferred in a blockchain layer 2 network such as Arbitrum. This is known in blockchain as 'Time to Finality'..
24/7/365
Decentralized exchanges on the blockchain operate around the clock – at night, on the weekends and public holidays. Transactions are processed automatically and do not rely on any humans.
Low cost
Trading fees on decentralized exchanges are ~0.3% of trade value and a fixed fee of ~$0.01 per trade (gas fee).
Low transaction failures
The daily transaction failure rate for Ethereum is less than 2%. All transactions that are processed on the blockchain are permanent and there are no reconciliation failures.
Programmable
Tokens are not static and can have smart functions. For example, Borderless.Fi embedded data about the underlying real-world asset to the RWA Tokens themselves – financial information, legal contracts, asset details. When you buy the token, you automatically receive the corresponding data and files as they are embedded on the token itself.
