How to tokenize real-world assets on Algorand

You can create real-world assets on Algorand with Algorand Standard Assets (ASAs). 

An ASA is a digital token that can represent anything—fungible or non-fungible—on the Algorand blockchain. 

Before you begin, make sure you have a wallet that supports Algo. Need a wallet? Read this guide. 

  1. Fund your Algorand wallet. You'll need Algo to pay the transaction fees when creating ASAs. 
  2. Choose your creation method. You can create ASAs using either AlgoKit or a third-party platform like The Laboratory. 
  3. Confirm and complete RWA creation. If you’re using AlgoKit, run your script to create the ASA and ensure you receive a successful response to confirm completion. 
  4. Manage your RWA. After successfully creating your ASA, you can manage it through your Algorand wallet or the platform you used to create it. 

That's it! You've now tokenized a real-world asset on the Algorand blockchain.
