Planetary scale decentralized infrastructure network for all verified physical RWAs
The general purpose decentralized infrastructure network for the fractional tokenization and verified exchange of all physical real world assets.
Verified decentralized exchange
Fermion protocol enables the secure decentralized exchange of physical real world assets, by coordinating a network of trusted verifiers and custodians using decentralized infrastructure.
Native fractional tokenization
Fermion extends ERC-404 to enable native fractionalization of physical RWAs into ERC-20s which bridge into DeFi to access increased liquidity and demand.
General purpose protocol
Fermion is a general purpose protocol which is being progressively developed into the planetary scale network for all verified physical RWAs.
Protocol design
Decentralized
All physical assets secured on a decentralized ledger.
Anyone can use, everyone can trust
Blackrock’s plan risks financial elite ”control of everything”.
General purpose
Roadmap to extend to all types of physical RWAs from collectibles to commodities and real-estate.
Minimally extractive
Low fees, with token holders getting to share in the value created.
State-of-the-art
Designed by expert physical RWA protocol design team.
Products
dApp Suite
Backendless dApp designed for ease of use for sellers, verifiers, custodians and buyers.
Tokenization kit
Easily plug-in assets, verifiers and custodians and build physical RWA apps.
Global Marketplaces
For tokenizing and exchanging physical RWAs.
The Flow
Fermion high level flow
High level architecture
Working together, Boson and Fermion enable the decentralized tokenization and exchange of the full spectrum of physical RWAs, optimizing for efficiency for commerce assets and verification for high-value assets. Fermion is built on top of Boson. However, they are separate networks with separate tokens, governed by distinct but overlapping communities.
Primary entities
The protocol is used by different entities, who have different roles in the process. Each role has a set of actions they can perform in the protocol.
Sellers
Entities who directly hold inventory, sell products, and collect revenue on items sold.
Buyers
Entities who purchase the asset in the primary or secondary sales, including those assets that are fractionalized.
Verifiers
Trusted actors who verify that assets meet the description for a fee.
Custodians
Trusted actors who receive, custody, and release assets for a fee.
Secondary entities
Entities which are distinct in the real world, but which the protocol cannot distinguish from primary entities. Distinguishing between such entities is done at higher levels (e.g. in dApp).
Resellers
Acts on behalf of a Seller, and manages the entire process for them, including taking money from sales and paying the off-protocol seller.
Bridgers
Agents who bridge/intermediate on to off chain activities. For example, entities who will act as the verifier/custodian on-protocol, with an off-chain contract with the off-protocol verifier/custodian.
Facilitator
Entities with the power to setup and list offers and have control for everything except holding keys for the payment account.
Sourcerers
Introducer agents who are incentivized to source sellers, verifiers, custodians and supply. They do not act as intermediaries, just introducers. Initially offchain.
Protocol Design
Protocol design details
Listing
Sourcerer or Sellers list an asset on the protocol and select Verifiers, Custodians and a price discovery mechanism.
Primary trading
Minting and listing of whole or fractionalized NFT as claim on as-yet unverified asset.
Verification
Verifier examines asset and either passes or fails verification of asset against description.
Custody
Protocol unlocks to Buyer an F-NFT for now verified and custodied asset.
Secondary Trading
Buyer may now trade verified, custodied F-NFT either in whole or fractionally including use as collateral in DeFi etc.
Check-out
Upon request, protocol will receive and burn F-NFT and enable Buyer to take custody of the asset.
