As we step into the new year 2025, let us reflect on the achievements that defined an extraordinary year for NYALA .
In 2024, we didn’t just adapt to the changing dynamic digital asset landscape, but we actively contributed to its growth. Among our key milestones, three moments stood out as clear examples of our commitment to innovation in the digital asset space.
The Future Financing Act, passed in December 2023 made an important shift in the financial industry, enabling the issuance of electronic shares, future of share tokenization. NYALA seized this opportunity to set a precedent, becoming the first and only registrar in Germany to tokenize shares! This project was not a POC or test case but it involved the issuance and distribution of NYALA shares to our investors wallets in a very straightforward process, showing our confidence in the technology along with our commitment to leading by example for tokenization process and digital tokenization.
We facilitated the issuance and distribution of NYALA shares directly into the investors wallets without any manual work challenges. The process was transformative and solved challenges for modern investors, proving our confidence in tokenization technology. By doing so, we proved that tokenized securities are not just viable but are a great alternative to traditional methods. This step not only positioned us as pioneers but also inspired the entire industry to rethink its potential. Tokenizing shares not only improved transparency and inclusivity in financial markets, but investors also gained instant access to holdings, reduced reliance on intermediaries, along with ensured compliance with German regulations. This achievement made financial processes get rid of complex paper certificates and outdated administrative methods and hence made the process optimal.
Partnerships fuel progress, and our collaboration with Tangany and Tokenforge was a evidence to this theory. Together, we all built and introduced a white label onboarding solution in order to simplify and accelerate the issuance of tokenized assets, which turned out to be a game changer. How did we do this?
Firstly, Tokenforge provided a sophisticated client platform for onboarding, ensuring user-friendly experiences along with NYALA’s Registrar Services guaranting that tokenized securities were issued, registered, and managed in strict compliance with the eWpG. Saecondly, Tangany offered state-of-the-art custody solutions to secure these digital assets. The result? An extensive, ready-to-use solution for issuers.
Additionally, one of the standout successes of this initiative was AAACHT’s token issuance. This project is a real-life example of how issuers could tokenize assets with flexibility and confidence. The Quickstart Offering was more than just a product launch, it was a major step towards making tokenization accessible and scalable!
Through this collaboration, we empowered issuers to transform the power of digital assets by great reduction of onboarding complexity and creating an all-in-one solution, which effectively lowered barriers to entry, making it simple for more issuers to embrace tokenization as a strategic advantage not a technology upgrade hassle.
The European financial public market, with its regulations and diverse systems, has always been challenging, however in 2024, NYALA made significant strides in bridging these gaps. We became the tokenization engine and crypto registrar for issuances spanning not just Germany but multiple European jurisdictions.
From renewable energy to real estate, we helped issuers across a various sectors, navigating the complexities of differing KYC requirements, tax regimes, and regulatory frameworks. We are happy that each project is bringing us closer to realizing our vision of a unified European Digital Asset Ecosystem, laying the foundation for a seamless and borderless financial future for different types of investors.
Our work involved fostering collaboration between regulators, issuers, and technology providers. By identifying and addressing pain points specific to each jurisdiction, we streamlined processes and created great models for success. This approach not only expanded our reach but also solidified NYALA’s role as a key player in shaping Europe’s digital asset definition.
Looking back at 2024, we are very proud of what we’ve achieved together with our dedicated NYALA team , forward-thinking partners, and visionary clients at NYALA. These milestones have made a significant progress, setting the stage for a promising financial future. As we look forward to 2025, we’re optimistic and our focus is to innovate and deliver solutions that empower the industry in the digital age. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to making 2024 a standout year for NYALA, Here’s to an even more impactful 2025 ahead!
