rwa/1 — a record format for real-world assets. One file at your own domain. No account, no server, no chain, no permission.

npx assetmesh adopt          # write public/.well-known/rwa.json
npx assetmesh check          # validate it

Why

Tokenising a real-world asset has meant minting a token and then hunting for a market. That is why almost every RWA token is illiquid: each asset becomes its own market, and a market of one asset has no depth on any day its owner is not selling.

rwa/1 gives an asset a denomination instead of a market. Obligations are issued in a unit that already circulates, so a reward against a Chicago office building and one against a Vancouver hotel are the same unit in a holder's hands. There is no per-asset liquidity to bootstrap because there is no per-asset unit.

Install

npm i @flashyos/assetmesh

import { validateRecord, isValid } from '@flashyos/assetmesh';

const problems = validateRecord(JSON.parse(await (await fetch(url)).text()));
if (problems.length) for (const p of problems) console.error(p.path, p.code, p.message);

validateRecord returns every problem, not the first. isValid is sugar over it.

The five rules

1. A reward may not be performance-linked. An obligation whose worth rises with rent, occupancy or sale proceeds is an investment contract nearly everywhere it is offered. The field is required, so the question is answered on every obligation ever emitted.
2. An independent claim is not the issuer's to make. An appraisal signed by the owner is a number in a PDF.
3. Every attestation expires. An undated 2019 valuation read as current is how these records mislead without anybody lying.
4. Money and units are integers. Floats drift.
5. The starter's placeholders are refused. assetmesh adopt writes a record that does not pass, deliberately.

What validity does not mean

A record that validates is well-formed. It is not true. No format can vouch for the claims inside it, and one that implied it could would launder an assertion into a verdict. What you get is narrower: who claims what, as of when, until when, and whether the party making a claim is the party it is about.

Zero dependencies

This package imports nothing but node: builtins. The validator runs in a browser, in a repository that has never heard of FlashyOS, and before an install. vendor-assetmesh.mjs is the same validator as a single file to copy in where there is no package.json at all.

Spec

The company this would become

docs/ carries the spinout preparation, written inside the package so it travels with an extraction rather than staying behind in the monorepo: BRAND.md (identity, palette, the refusals), NARRATIVE.md (the argument, and where it sits in the mesh), SEO.md (keywords, GEO, geography, mesh-linking) and FORMATION.md (what has to be true first).

Nothing has been spun out. The gate is one asset issuer outside this estate publishing a record at its own domain, and it reads 0.
