How $FACTR Unlocks Business Value Through Real-World Applications

Discover how $FACTR, Defactor's native token in conjunction with our RWA Toolkit, drives liquidity, staking, and real-world impact across industries like real estate, agriculture, and commodities. From enabling token holders to borrow against assets to supporting sustainable farming and precious metal investments, $FACTR provides practical DeFi solutions. Dive into real-world use cases showcasing how $FACTR can work for you!

Decentralised Finance (DeFi) is transforming the way business is done, particularly in industries where asset liquidity and stakeholder engagement are key. Native tokens are an essential feature of this ecosystem, providing real utility by facilitating governance, incentivising participation, and driving economic activity throughout the decentralised landscape. Defactor’s native token, $FACTR, exemplifies this by offering practical solutions for sectors like real estate, commodities, and agriculture. This article explores how $FACTR brings these benefits to life through real-world use cases, addressing common business challenges across industries.

Enhancing Liquidity Through Tokenised Assets

A recurring challenge for businesses, especially those dealing with Real World Assets (RWAs), is unlocking liquidity without selling assets. $FACTR, integrated with Defactor’s POOLS tool, offers a seamless way for businesses to use their tokenised assets as collateral, enabling access to loans in stable currencies like $USDC. Recent use cases have explored the possibilities available with Defactor’s Toolkit and $FACTR:

  • Landshare allows users to invest in tokenised real estate. Through $FACTR, holders of Landshare’s tokens $LSRWA and $LAND can unlock liquidity by borrowing against their tokens, removing the need to sell property shares in order to gain capital.
  • LandX enables agricultural yield investments by tokenising crop shares. Here, $xBasket holders use $FACTR to unlock liquidity, allowing capital to be reinvested in other ventures while supporting farming communities in regions like sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia.

In each case, $FACTR serves as the bridge between tokenised RWAs and the financial liquidity that businesses and investors need in order to grow their projects.

Empowering Staking and Yield Generation

Beyond liquidity, $FACTR is also enabling businesses to create engaging staking models that promote long-term investment and strengthen community participation. Through Defactor’s ENGAGE tool, $FACTR supports projects looking to incentivise users with rewards. This flexible model can be tailored to suit different business needs:

  • Stobox leverages $FACTR to power its multi-chain staking model, allowing both utility and security token holders to earn rewards. Through Engage, Stobox has leveraged an unrivaled new model for their community to boost liquidity, security token distribution, and staking for their token $STBU. This custom solution perfectly fits the needs of the $STBU community
  • Libertum, a real estate tokenisation project, uses $FACTR to offer staking options for its $LBM token. With yield rates ranging from 5% to 40% APR and lock-up periods of up to 360 days, Libertum ensures its token holders benefit from staking rewards while stabilising liquidity in the early stages of their token release.

In these cases, $FACTR drives engagement by enabling businesses to provide value to their token holders, fostering stronger relationships and deeper involvement in the ecosystem.

Supporting Real-World Impact

DeFi's utility is not just limited to financial growth; it can also have a real-world impact. Several projects using $FACTR are focused on creating opportunities for both investors and local communities:

  • LandX works with farmers, providing capital in exchange for a share of their crops. By enabling liquidity for $xBasket holders, $FACTR supports sustainable farming practices and preserves traditional agriculture in regions like sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia.
  • Aurus similarly supports the precious metals industry by tokenising gold and enabling holders of $tXAU tokens to access capital without needing to sell their gold assets. This practical application of $FACTR allows investors to manage their portfolios with more flexibility while remaining tied to real-world commodities.

Expanding the Significance of RWA

One of the core strengths of $FACTR is the trust it brings to decentralised business models. All projects utilising $FACTR benefit from Defactor’s smart contract infrastructure, ensuring security and transparency. Whether it’s Landshare tokenising real estate or Libertum using $FACTR for staking, the underlying security audits and decentralised nature of the toolkit provide businesses and users alike with confidence. $FACTR’s integration with platforms like Uniswap ensures liquidity and market reach, allowing businesses to operate at scale while maintaining decentralisation at their core. In the right hands, tokens, Be they $FACTR, $LSRWA, $LAND, $xBasket or $tXAU can become so much more— They can act as tools that empowers businesses to unlock liquidity, engage their communities, and create real-world impact. Addressing common business challenges and improving attributes of different assets may just be the tip of the iceberg for tokenisations impact on the world. As RWA coninues to expand the value it unlocks may extend beyond financial gains and as more businesses adopt tokenisation, its potential becomes increasingly evident. The future of RWA lies not only in unlocking liquidity but also in reshaping traditional markets, creating opportunities that empower both enterprises and communities.
