India’s rural economy holds vast untapped potential in agricultural infrastructure, but liquidity constraints often limit growth.
By combining Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) with Tokenized Real-World Assets, rural assets—like warehouses, irrigation systems, or solar grids—can be digitized, fractionalized, and leveraged as collateral for credit.
DePIN incentivizes communities to contribute to and maintain physical infrastructure, tracked via IoT and blockchain.
For example, a solar irrigation network can record usage data on-chain, triggering maintenance, generating yields, and enabling farmer collectives to secure loans based on verified performance.
Tokenized RWA converts ownership rights over rural assets into tradable digital tokens, allowing cooperatives to co-own infrastructure, share in revenue, and use tokens as collateral.
This democratizes asset access, is enabling even landless farmers to participate in economic growth.
A National Rural Collateral Pool of tokenized assets could unlock embedded rural lending, where fin-techs and banks use smart contracts to provide instant, low-interest loans to FPOs, SHGs, and smallholders—without traditional collateral.
This model fosters egalitarian capitalism—spreading ownership, decentralizing governance, and monetizing common goods.
It transforms idle rural assets into income-generating digital resources, ushering in a Web3-powered green revolution and inclusive financial empowerment.
