At MetaStreet, we see the future of decentralized finance (DeFi) evolving through object-oriented finance, moving beyond traditional ERC-20 tokens. By integrating new verticals such as NFTs, real-world assets (RWAs), and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN), we aim to create more sustainable and productive value streams. These assets offer the potential for long-term growth and broader market applications beyond the speculative token models that currently dominate the space.


NFTs with Cash Flows and Utility

We're focused on creating NFTs that generate cash flows and have real-world utility. By advancing beyond digital collectibles, we believe NFTs can evolve into long-term revenue-generating assets, which provide sustainable value for users and the broader DeFi ecosystem.


Real-World Assets (RWAs) in DeFi

RWAs represent an opportunity to connect DeFi with tangible off-chain assets, such as real estate and traditional financial instruments. At MetaStreet, we are building products that tokenize these assets, creating a bridge between global markets and decentralized finance. This connection will enable DeFi users to access new financial opportunities linked to real-world value, further legitimizing the space.


NodeFi and Decentralized Infrastructure

NodeFi introduces decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN), where distributed nodes support computation, storage, and even telecommunications networks. This new frontier is critical for scaling DeFi beyond financial products into tangible, infrastructure-related applications. AI-driven compute networks, powered by distributed nodes, offer a decentralized approach to powering tasks like machine learning and blockchain verification. At MetaStreet, we are excited about the potential of these decentralized infrastructure models to create sustainable and scalable economic systems that power DeFi’s next generation.


Building a Resilient and Scalable Future

Our mission at MetaStreet is to drive the future of object-oriented finance by integrating these diverse asset classes into DeFi. The next phase of growth involves scaling decentralized finance to incorporate real-world value and infrastructure in a way that supports long-term growth and adoption. By developing products that leverage both digital and physical assets, we aim to build a robust DeFi ecosystem that seamlessly integrates with the global economy, driving the space forward with sustainable financial innovation.
