The Stellar Development Foundation has joined the ERC3643 Association to advance compliant asset tokenization standards. SDF will contribute to promoting real-world asset adoption, open-source development, and cross-chain interoperability between Stellar and Ethereum-based standards.

The Stellar Development Foundation announced its membership in the ERC3643 Association, a non-profit organization advancing the ERC-3643 token standard for compliant asset tokenization on public blockchains. ERC-3643, originally developed by Tokeny, is designed to meet regulatory requirements for real-world assets and is now the industry reference standard for compliant tokenized securities. Through this partnership, SDF will drive RWA adoption on Stellar, contribute to open-source ERC-3643 tooling with support for non-EVM chains, and enable cross-chain interoperability between Stellar and Ethereum. The collaboration leverages Stellar's high-performance network and Soroban smart contracts combined with ERC-3643's proven compliance framework to accelerate mainstream adoption of tokenized financial instruments.
