Futian issues world’s first RWA digital bond on Ethereum, merging blockchain with traditional finance to attract global investors.
A groundbreaking event unfolded in China’s financial landscape. Futian Investment Holding, a state-owned enterprise based in Shenzhen, issued the world’s first real-world asset (RWA) digital bond on the Ethereum blockchain. Named FTID TOKEN 001, or “Fubi” in Chinese, this tokenized relationship is an important step toward integrating conventional finance with blockchain technology.
Futian Issues Two-Year Digital Bond at 2.62% Interest
First, Futian Investment Holding, with a rating of A- by Fitch issued this novel bond to increase its international financing sources. The bond is worth 500 million yuan (about 69 million dollars), and was issued in Hong Kong. This offshore issue took advantage of the liberal rules that prevail in Hong Kong and promotes financial innovations. Consequently, the bond provides foreign investors with a rare chance to access the financing market of China via blockchain technology.

In addition, the bond is two years old and at an interest rate of 2.62. Futian makes capital markets more transparent and efficient by posting it on the public blockchain of Ethereum. This digital bond relies on tokenization, which makes transactions more straightforward and accessible, unlike traditional bonds. Therefore, it establishes a new trend in how state-owned enterprises can fund themselves across the world.
Besides, this issuance continues the success of Futian. The company has also acquired experience in the overseas market, issuing the first overseas bond in October 2024. Since that time Futian has paid close attention to the financial trends in the world and especially the emergence of RWAs. This targeted approach enabled the company to operate quickly and develop the FTID TOKEN 001. As an example, the structure of the bond fits the current trend of tokenizing real-world assets, which is becoming increasingly popular across the globe.
Futian District Gains Global Attention with Tokenized Finance Move
Furthermore, the publication indicates the desire of the Futian District to be a financial giant. Futian is establishing a financial innovation frontier by becoming the first company to combine the latest blockchain technology with conventional financing. This action benefits the capital structure of the firm and also demonstrates how Hong Kong serves as a center of experimentation in terms of blockchain-based financial technology. Because of this, Futian is gaining international recognition and at the same time, it is boosting the economy of the district.
But the importance of this relationship is greater than Futian. It shows how state-owned enterprises might adapt to digital transformation to open up new opportunities. To illustrate, tokenization is less expensive and allows faster processes than the conventional issuance of bonds. It also creates trust through a clear accounting of the transactions within the Ethereum blockchain.
To sum up, the issuance of the Futian Investment Holding FTID TOKEN 001 is historic. It is the first state-owned enterprise to issue a publicly traded digital bond on Ethereum, which opens the way to more financial products with blockchain and Ethereum. Futian has demonstrated how technology can advance efficiency in the global markets by using the regulatory framework and technology of Hong Kong and Ethereum. In the future, this audacious move may spur other firms to consider tokenized assets and change the future of finance. With Futian District progressively adopting digital tools, its spring of enterprise finance is certainly flowing in greater abundance than ever.
