🇦🇺 Hedera Just Completed the Most Advanced Tokenization in Australia's History
Reserve Bank of Australia's Project Acacia used real central bank money.
"We're not doing POCs anymore. Only proofs of value."
PROJECT ACACIA (HEDERA OVERVIEW)
• Real claims on central bank money.
• Exchange settlement accounts tokenized as wholesale CBDCs on Hedera HashSphere.
• Hedera synced CBDC movements between private and public chain in real time.
• DvP atomic settlement. Both legs of every transaction fulfilled simultaneously.
IMPERIUM MARKETS (HEDERA USE CASE)
The only licensed marketplace in Australia for term deposits, NCDs, and annuities. They started on R3 Corda. They switched to Hedera.
• Term deposits, certificates of deposit, and annuities tokenized as digital twins
• Recorded, custodied, and traded onchain on public-permissioned Hedera
• Settlement via Cuscal stablecoin backed by wCBDC on HashSphere
Collaborating banks: National Australia Bank, Westpac, Bank of Queensland, Colonial First State, Challenger Limited, AustralianSuper
AP+ TOKEN INTERCHANGE (HEDERA USE CASE)
• AP+ built an interchange for different stablecoins and deposit tokens on Hedera
• A wCBDC digital twin ("white coin") served as the bridge asset on the public network
• Underlying wCBDC on private HashSphere
ASSETTO (Why it Matters)
Full production-grade tokenization is now deployable in weeks on Hedera. Not years.
• Enterprise-ready out of the box.
• Public, private, or both environments.
WHAT COMES NEXT
• $24B annual opportunity identified in Australia. Currently capturing $1B.
• Clipper (CLPR) Cross-Ledger Protocol announced.
• Bridgeless multichain interoperability coming.
• Regulators, RBA, and Treasury aligned and moving toward production.
