NamericaREAM is a high-end real estate development project for Dubai's pre-sale properties. It collaborates with Dubai Royal Real Estate Group EMAAR to achieve on chain transactions of pre-sale properties through the dynamic mapping layer of the WAT protocol, enabling users to trade properties through ATC. And mint the income token INC (Income Token) to inject the investment income of pre-sale buildings into the chain. 3. As an important global energy asset, the natural gas resources of Kurmanstan will have their natural gas extraction rights and sales revenue digitized through the compliance pre-processing layer of the WAT protocol (audited by institutions such as JPMorgan Chase) and ZK technology, introducing energy related targets with an annualized stable cash flow of over 10% to the cryptocurrency market while ensuring on chain transaction compliance. The current management scale of the WAT agreement exceeds 270 million US dollars, covering diversified assets such as energy, real estate, and precious metals. This cooperation marks the recognition of traditional giants towards the on chain ecosystem and is expected to attract more Web2 users and funds to enter.
