Rayls, the world’s first Layer 1 blockchain designed with RWA tokenization in mind, has selected AmFi, the largest private credit tokenization platform in Brazil, in a strategic partnership. The partnership aims to bring more than $1 billion in real-world assets to the Rayls network by June 2027, marking one of the largest institutional RWA projects to date.
Today marks an important milestone for the RWA institutional ecosystem.

Brazil’s largest tokenized private credit pipeline moves to Rayls
AmFi already acts as a monopolist in the Brazilian credit tokenization environment by issuing nearly R$3 billion (over USD 500 million) in credit and debt instruments. AmFi will also move its current tokenized portfolio to the Rayls blockchain as it forges a new relationship with it and becomes the first issuer of new institutional-grade RWAs on the platform.
The partnership is based on Rayls’ vision to establish a fully compatible, scalable and permissioned public Layer 1 chain, designed to support regulated financial assets.
Ambitious roadmap for total value tokenized (TVT)
The Rayls & AmFi partnership includes specific and quantifiable milestones, which will aim to gradually introduce settings within 18 months:
- $100 million TVT by July 2026
- TVT should remain at 500 million in January 2027.
- US$1 billion in tokenized assets by June 2027.
These results represent one of the largest institutional RWA liabilities in any blockchain ecosystem.
Built for regulatory compliance in Brazil, Europe and the US
Rayls has established itself as the institutional blockchain of compliance. The network also ensures intrinsic compliance with regulatory systems such as:
- CVM and Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN).
- European MiCA standards
- US compliance frameworks
This multi-jurisdictional alignment enables regulated financial institutions to issue tokenized assets on-chain, which are programmable, audited and fully compliant.
AmFi’s operations are deeply entrenched in Brazil’s regulatory system. Its entire tokenized portfolio of its own private credits is registered with Brazilian financial regulators and with recognized custodians, providing investor confidence and capital security.
Grant of RLS 5 million to accelerate long-term growth
The partnership consists of a RLS 5 million grant to AmFi by Rayls to accelerate ecosystem building and share long-term economic incentives.
This grant is an investment of more than money; it is a promise to make Rayls the most important private RWA chain in the Southern Hemisphere, says Marcos Viriato, co-founder and CEO of Parfin, the team behind the L1 blockchain.
This was similar to AmFi’s leadership. AmFi CPO and co-founder Joao Pirola pointed out that the complete transition of AmFi’s activities to Rayls is the path to democratizing access to revenues from the Brazilian real economy.
Accelerating the RWA Future Before Mainnet
The news follows that Rayls is preparing the highly anticipated launch of its Mainnet in the first quarter of 2026, giving DeFi users around the world access to institutional-caliber tokenized assets on the public chain. It should introduce new liquidity to the DeFi ecosystem and provide global access to private credit.
AmFi is prepared to scale, says CEO and founder Paulo David. We are pushing the boundaries of global investors by aligning our skills with the platform.
