RWA

RWA (Real World Assets) refers to the tokenization of tangible assets—such as real estate, private credit, and government bonds—on the blockchain. By bringing traditional financial instruments on-chain, RWA protocols like Ondo and Centrifuge provide DeFi users with stable, real-yield opportunities. In 2026, the RWA sector is a multi-trillion-dollar bridge between TradFi and DeFi, enabling fractional ownership and global liquidity for previously illiquid assets.

The joint statement from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on Tuesday is the clearest sign yet of the tectonic shift in Washington’s approach to cryptocurrency.

Burkina hosts AI workshop; Vietnam’s digital transformation law

The post Burkina hosts AI workshop; Vietnam’s digital transformation law appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Homepage > News > Business > Burkina Faso hosts AI workshop; Vietnam’s digital transformation law Burkina Faso has joined the league of African countries pushing for a national artificial intelligence (AI) strategy, launching a one-day workshop to lay the foundations for a blueprint. According to a report, the Ministry of Digital Transformation, Postal and Electronic Communications organized the event, drawing attendance from government agencies and private stakeholders. Dubbed the National Situational Analysis Workshop, the Ministry revealed that the inputs of attendees will form the core of the first National AI Action Plan. Borlli Michel Somé, Secretary General of the Ministry, disclosed details of the AI workshop, noting that participants were divided into different working groups. Attendees were separated on key verticals, including governance, ethics, data, innovation, research, and training. Despite using multiple working groups, Somé urged participants to adopt a collective approach in the discussions. A key feature of the workshop was a heavy presence of local talent rather than a reliance on foreign-trained experts in the development of a national AI strategy. “This plan must deliver concrete and lasting solutions,” said Some. “AI represents a chance to create homegrown innovations that benefit all citizens.” While efforts are made to launch Burkina Faso’s national AI strategy, authorities will first float a provisional roadmap for 2026-2028. During the workshop, Somé outlined key areas that the Ministry will focus on in pushing to keep pace with global AI digitization. The country’s AI strategy will focus on expanding digital infrastructure to support AI-powered services. At the heart of the strategy is robust data governance, ensuring the ethical and transparent use of data. Furthermore, Somé disclosed that Burkina Faso will pursue human capital development to deepen the talent pool while supporting innovation and entrepreneurship.
