When most people hear the word “blockchain,” they think of Bitcoin, crypto trading or speculative tokens. But blockchain is much bigger than that — it’s a technology that can fundamentally change how our financial system works.

That’s where Provenance Blockchain Foundation comes in. Unlike general-purpose blockchains that try to do everything, Provenance was built with a very specific purpose: to modernize financial services. It’s a blockchain designed for banks, fintechs and innovators who need secure, scalable and regulatory-ready infrastructure. It’s a financial-grade blockchain trusted by institutions but open for innovators.

At its core, Real-World Assets (RWA) are about connecting the financial world we live in every day with the efficiencies of blockchain. These are assets we already understand — things like real estate, loans, funds and private credit — brought on-chain (digitized and represented on blockchain). Why does this matter? Because RWAs make it possible for everyday people to access investments and opportunities that used to be reserved only for big banks or wealthy insiders.

In the past, if you wanted to invest in real estate or private credit markets, you needed millions or special accreditation. With RWA tokenization, those assets can be broken down, digitized, and made available in smaller pieces to a much wider audience.

This is the promise of Provenance Blockchain: real assets, real-world impact. It’s not about speculation — it’s about building a more inclusive, efficient and transparent financial system powered by blockchain technology.

Provenance blockchain use cases

One powerful use case of Provenance Blockchain is in transforming consumer lending and real estate finance. Through the DART System, mortgage loans are securely registered on-chain, creating a transparent, efficient and trusted loan registry for lenders, investors and regulators.

At the same time, Figure has leveraged Provenance to launch innovative products like blockchain-based Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs). Unlike traditional personal loans, these HELOCs offer borrowers flexible access to their home equity with lower rates, faster approvals and the ability to redraw funds as needed — all recorded on Provenance’s blockchain for security and efficiency.

Vesta Equity launched Home Equity Investments (HEIs), creating a new way for homeowners to unlock equity without taking on debt, while giving investors direct, scalable access to real estate. Infineo Group issued over $600M in tokenized life insurance policies, digitizing policies on Provenance to improve efficiency, liquidity, and trust. Democratized Prime (Figure Markets) introduced the YLDS stablecoin and crypto-backed lending products, expanding access to blockchain-native financial instruments tied directly to real-world credit markets.

This is the future Provenance Blockchain is building — a financial ecosystem where trust meets transparency, where real assets drive real opportunities, and where everyday people, not just institutions, can participate in and benefit from the power of blockchain.

Key milestones and recognition

This summer Provenance Blockchain has entered its strongest chapter marked by accelerating adoption, product upgrades and global recognition. The network surpassed $15.5B in total value locked (TVL), with over 323,000 loans on-chain and a total loan balance of $12B, reflecting growing institutional trust in Provenance as the infrastructure for real-world assets.

Also, this year also brought industry-wide recognition. At NYC Blockchain Week, Provenance was awarded “Best Real-World Use Case” at the 2025 Tie Innovator Awards. Judged by leading investment firms, the award celebrates projects shaping the future of finance. Provenance is proving what its founders always believed: that blockchain’s greatest potential lies not in speculation, but in powering real, regulated financial products with global impact.

HASH: powering Provenance’s ecosystem

HASH is Provenance Blockchain’s native utility token, designed to power every aspect of the network — from governance and settlements to rewards and on-chain operations. One of HASH’s unique features is its built-in rewards loop. A portion of fees collected on the network is returned to HASH holders through on-chain auctions, creating a dividend-style system that grows as the network grows. This approach emphasizes long-term utility and real-world adoption over short-term speculation.

HASH plays a central role for various participants in the ecosystem:

• Auction participants: buyers use HASH to acquire assets through on-chain auctions, supporting continuous price discovery.

• Builders & developers: HASH is used to run protocols, pay fees and incentivize users.

• Institutions: entities leverage HASH to place real-world assets on-chain.

• Delegators: by staking HASH with validators, holders earn rewards, secure the network and gain voting power in governance decisions.

In a major step toward transparency, $HASH is now officially tracked on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko and RWA.io, giving the community and investors access to reliable, real-time data.

At Genesis, 100 billion HASH tokens were minted, mostly held by Figure. To promote decentralization and a participatory community, Figure will transfer 40% of its holdings to the Provenance Foundation, increasing the Foundation’s share to ~44% for growth and liquidity purposes. The Foundation also plans a future reverse-split, reducing the total supply to 1 billion while keeping each holder’s proportional ownership unchanged. These steps aim to strengthen governance, market stability and the long-term HASH ecosystem.

HASH tokens can be purchased right now via Figure Markets (CEX) and Osmosis (DEX).

Why staking HASH matters

Staking HASH is a key way for you to actively participate in securing the Provenance network and shaping its governance. By staking with a validator, you contribute to network security and earn voting power for protocol decisions. While there is no minimum effective staking period, there is a 21 day delay from unstaking due to the unbonding period.

HASH uses a dynamic inflation model: the more tokens staked across the network, the lower the inflation rate.

Interested in staking HASH? By staking, you help secure the Provenance network, earn governance voting power and protect yourself from inflation dilution, all while boosting your rewards through milestone multipliers. Participants can earn milestone airdrops, rewarded for key blockchain achievements, and performance airdrops, allocated quarterly based on network usage and contributions. The release schedule is aligned with adoption metrics like chain activity and Total Value Locked, ensuring new token supply supports Provenance’s growth and value.Get started today and stake with us.
