ZIGChain's Wealth Management Engine Is Redefining On-Chain Capital Growth
The crypto space is often dismissed as speculative, with few real-world use cases and overly complex tools that leave most users behind. Blockchain networks like ZIGChain are rewriting that narrative by building practical, user-centric infrastructure — starting with the Wealth Management Engine ( WME ), a decentralized framework for creating, managing, and scaling investment strategies. WME offers a decentralized investment framework that improves financial accessibility — no spreadsheets, no multi-protocol juggling, no gatekeepers. It brings together institutional investors, wealth managers, and everyday users in one unified platform, enabling unique investment strategies and revenue generation for all stakeholders. The Problem: Crypto Promised Access — But Delivered Complexity Although the crypto industry has tried to solve legacy finance's gatekeeping problems, most web3 protocols have a difficult user interface. Emerging sectors like real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, with a $30 trillion market potential, have exposed a critical flaw: access without usability is meaningless. Platforms often struggle to maintain consistent trading volumes. Token holders face significant challenges in rebalancing portfolios or finding suitable exit positions. Meanwhile, institutional investors remain hesitant to participate without compliant infrastructure, deep liquidity, and sustainable price discovery mechanisms. Most web3 products build sophisticated technicalities without focusing on professional-grade asset management, enhanced user experience, and an easily accessible investor base. WME aims to solve the problem by creating a novel financial user experience for digital asset investments. Building The Foundations Of Accessible On-chain Finance WME inherits Zignaly's Profit-Sharing ecosystem to create a protocol-native architecture for scalable and accessible on-chain investment strategies. By turning strategies into native digital assets, it offers retail investors a seamless interface for using its yield-generating services by abstracting away the complexities of investment strategy execution. Users participate by funding capital to receive strategy tokens, representing the corresponding yield and risk value. The engine enables the underlying infrastructure to handle compounding rewards, track portfolio performance, and automate fees while users simply hold tokens. Since the tokens represent a wealth manager-led strategy, users can participate in institutional-grade investments without manually executing portfolio rebalances and hedging. WME also integrates investment layers into a unified experience for users, as they don't need to juggle multiple protocols, fees, and bridges. This helps users to access yields through NAWA's aggregator vaults, trade on Oroswap , liquid stake tokens on Valdora , access meme tokens on , lend-borrow through Permapod, or participate in Zamanat , a Sharia-compliant RWA Marketplace, all with Fireblocks -guaranteed security standards. This isn't just democratizing wealth — it's also making it smarter and safer for institutions. Institutional investors can leverage WME for its auditability, built-in compliance mechanism, and automated fees. Tokenization service providers can transparently manage on-chain strategies and depend on a standardized delivery model, reducing operational costs. We are witnessing a shift from fragmented, speculative crypto to composable, secure, and accessible digital finance. This evolution empowers everyone — from first-time investors to institutional fund managers — to build, scale, and manage wealth directly on-chain. By making performance-based, programmable strategies a native part of the blockchain experience, ZIGChain is setting the foundation for decentralized capital growth at scale.

ZIGChain Summit 2025 Reveals Shariah RWA Platform, $25M AI Fund, and June Mainnet Launch
DUBAI, UAE, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The inaugural ZIGChain Summit 2025 brought together visionaries from all spheres of the TradFi, Web2, and Web3 world to unveil a bold new chapter in their mission to decentralized wealth generation. Held in Dubai, the event delivered three breakthrough announcements: the launch of Zamanat, a Shariah-compliant Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization platform built on ZIGChain; a $25M Innovation Fund to support AI-powered finance tools; and the official mainnet go-live date set for June 25. From tokenized real estate and compliant DeFi to intelligent investing, ZIGChain made one thing clear — it's not just building infrastructure, it's architecting the future of inclusive, next-gen finance. Introducing Zamanat: The World's First Shariah-Compliant RWA Tokenization Platform on ZIGChain Perhaps, the summit's most consequential announcement was the unveiling of Zamanat, a Shariah-compliant platform designed to tokenize real-world assets (RWAs) by – a leading venture builder and investment firm in MENA. By building Zamanat on ZigChain, aims to democratize investments and access to wealth creation by adhering to values of ethical investing and transparency in order to power financial inclusion. Facilitating access to tokenized real-world assets, Zamanat empowers wealth managers and investors within the ZIGChain ecosystem to participate in previously inaccessible investment opportunities such as real estate, Sukuks, private credit, invoice factoring, commodities, and other tangible assets. Zamanat's introduction is timely, aligning with the UAE Government's strategic vision to become a global hub for digital assets and Islamic finance. The UAE has been proactive in integrating blockchain technology into its financial and governance infrastructure, evident from initiatives like the Dubai Land Department's sandbox for tokenized real estate transactions. Empowering Builders: $25mn DeFAI Fund As the Summit unfolded, another major highlight was the launch of the $25mn DeFAI fund by ZIGLabs, & DWF Labs. The initiative aims to develop innovative solutions that integrate artificial intelligence with blockchain technology, with a focus on advancing financial services, decentralized asset management, and digital wealth strategies. This fund comes on top of the $100mn ecosystem fund that was announced in April 2024 by ZIGLabs & the roll out of various builder support programs (labelled 'Kickstart') also emanating from the ZIGChain Summit, With this kind of support available, it is no wonder that ZIGChain, despite being in test-net, was able to put up a huge ecosystem showcase spanning so many builders. With a go-live date now clear, these support and incentive mechanisms are set to supercharge building in the ecosystem in the months to come. The countdown to ZIGChain's mainnet begins With a mainnet launch date set for 25th June 2025, ZIGChain seems to have positioned itself as a blockchain ready for retail onboarding. The Summit highlighted this operational readiness with more than 10 teams already building dApps and protocols natively on ZIGChain flanked by more than a dozen partners looking to integrate. Notable amongst them are Oroswap, an AI powered conversational DEX, Permapod, a lending protocol that accepts RWAs as collateral, and Nawa Finance, a sharia compliant DeFi aggregator that has recently onboarded Amanie as Sharia Advisors. While the decentralized applications (dApps) represent new technological developments, the community supporting them remains well-established. Zignaly, with its 1mn + users is expected to be the flagship wealth management protocol on the blockchain and be a source of early liquidity. This is what is makes the ecosystem attractive even from an institutional perspective with the likes of (one of the largest venture builders in the MENA region), DWF Labs (the leading venture fund in the Web3 Space) and PureVPN (leading cybersecurity company in the world) who have come to the fore with proposed investments in the validator set and the ecosystem as a whole. Notably, the ZIGChain Summit had a strong TradFi attendance with some of the leading figures of the UAE & Global financial landscape in attendance. With the recent announcement of UAE based Real Estate developer Ellington Properties exploring real estate tokenization with ZigChain, institutional interest is clearly evident from the outset. All Roads Lead To The Wealth Management Engine While these announcements and initiatives are exciting, the real differentiator is what ZIGChain is doing at a technology level with its wealth management engine – a modular investment management tech stack that shall enable anyone to launch a wealth creation protocol on ZIGChain and manage funds for other investors using CeFI, DeFi, or RWA opportunities. The technology is designed to streamline the investment process by minimizing complexity, including time, skill, and knowledge barriers, thereby facilitating financial intermediation and broader global access via blockchain infrastructure. This has been the vision of the core founding team behind ZIGChain since 2018 – when they started Zignaly, that is, how do users onramp a global majority that is disadvantaged from an income, knowledge or domicile perspective when it comes to wealth generation opportunities. That effort has led to a 1mn + strong community on Zignaly – the target for ZIGChain, the founders say, is everyone. About ZigChain ZIGChain is a Layer 1 blockchain built for wealth generation, powered by Zignaly's established social investment infrastructure, to create scalable, compliant, and efficient solutions for digital asset management. Founded in 2018, Zignaly has served over 500,000 users and is now extending its investment-focused capabilities to Web3 through ZIGChain. Contact:Media Teamsupport@ Logo:
