A quiet shift is happening in the way we invest and it’s all thanks to something called tokenisation. It might sound “techy”, but in finance speak, it’s simply a digital version of securitisation.

So what does that mean?

Well, it allows us to take real-world assets like investment funds, real estate or solar farms and turning them into digital pieces you can buy and trade on the blockchain, like you would do with a NFT or Bitcoin.

The key difference? These tokens represent real value in an underlying asset.

This week, one of the biggest financial networks in the world, Calastone, launched a new service called Tokenised Distribution. It helps traditional fund managers turn their funds into blockchain-based tokens that investors can buy more easily.

The real benefit is that it offers a simple, seamless path to tokenisation — without forcing asset managers to change how their funds are structured or run. At the same time, it opens access to a fast-growing pool of blockchain-native investors.

According to an article on the company website, “Calastone Tokenised Distribution offers asset managers a powerful new route to market,” said Adam Belding, Chief Technology Officer at Calastone. “We make it possible to distribute existing funds via blockchain networks, instantly and at scale, without any operational upheaval or technical reinvention.”

It means, investment managers no longer need to rebuild their systems to get into the world of blockchain. With Calastone’s help, they can now offer their funds to a new generation of investors who use Ethereum, Polygon, and other digital platforms to buy and sell.

Why is this important to us?

Calastone’s announcement gives us confidence that we're on the right track, as they bring traditional funds to the blockchain, RegenX is doing the same for real-world climate infrastructure like solar farms and battery storage.

With RegenX, investors can buy fractional ownership of these projects, get real-time updates on performance and carbon savings, and even exit their investment after a few years through a secondary market.

It’s professional, transparent, and designed for institutional and wholesale investors — the same audience Calastone is now targeting with its tokenised funds.

Calastone’s move shows that tokenisation is going mainstream. The company is proving the future of investing is tokenised, and the smart money is already moving there, whether it’s into funds, bonds, or solar panels. With platforms like RegenX, climate impact and financial returns no longer have to be separate goals.

Tokenisation isn’t just a buzzword anymore, it's a step towards a more efficient, inclusive, and transparent financial system.
