Commercial Motivations

  • Larger ecosystem scope:

    • While Clearpool established itself as a leader in the private credit space on-chain with over $600m in loans originated, the Ozean network aims to build a comprehensive RWA ecosystem enabling the power of Defi on RWAs, leveraging Hex Trust’s custodial relationships and licenses to onboard assets

  • More partnerships:

    • Ozean is looking to partner with leading RWA players and real-world asset originators to launch their applications and create use cases around RWAs. A first partnership with Hex Trust has been announced, a licensed custodian that will closely partner with Ozean on the USDX/ozUSD yield stablecoin, the Ozean wallet, and a range of other strategic product initiatives involving RWAs

  • Oxygen Liquidity Layer
