How ReserveChain Works
From verified physical assets to transparent digital ownership.
ReserveChain is developing institutional infrastructure for real-world assets — combining verification, custody, digital asset passports, tokenization, proof of reserves, and redemption workflows. The platform begins with ultrafine copper powder and ultrafine nickel wire, and is built to scale across additional asset classes over time.
This section describes the proposed framework only. It remains subject to final legal, contractual, technical and operational confirmation.
From Physical Asset to Digital Ownership
Asset Onboarding
A real-world asset is sourced, identified, and categorized.
Verify
Independent laboratories inspect, test, and confirm authenticity and quality.
Value
Relevant valuation inputs establish reference pricing and asset characteristics.
Custody
Approved assets would enter secure institutional custody with chain-of-custody controls.
Passport
A Digital Asset Passport is created with unit-level identity, documentation, and history.
Tokenize
Eligible reserves may be connected to digital issuance through defined platform rules.
Reconcile
Physical inventory and digital records are continuously reconciled for transparency.
Redeem
Eligible holders may follow the approved redemption process for physical settlement.
What Happens at Each Stage
1Asset Onboarding
- Assets are sourced from reputable suppliers.
- Categorized by type, form, and key specifications.
- Entered into the platform intake and tracking system.
2Independent Verification
- Third-party laboratories test material properties.
- Quality, purity, and dimensions are verified.
- Documentation and certifications are collected and validated.
3Appraisal & Valuation
- Valuation models establish reference pricing.
- Market data and benchmarks are attached.
- Valuation outputs are recorded and versioned.
4Secure Custody
- Assets would be transferred to approved custodians.
- Chain-of-custody controls are designed to ensure movement integrity.
- Inventory is designed to be segregated and securely stored.
5Digital Asset Passport
- A unique digital identity is issued for each unit.
- Documentation, test results, and history are attached.
- The passport is linked to custody and verification records.
6Tokenization Controls
- Eligibility rules define what may be tokenized.
- Platform policies govern issuance parameters.
- Digital assets would represent claims on eligible reserves.
7Proof of Reserves & Reconciliation
- Physical inventory is counted and recorded.
- Digital records are reconciled to physical holdings.
- Discrepancies are investigated and resolved.
8Redemption Framework
- Redemption requests follow defined processes.
- Eligibility and compliance checks are performed.
- Physical settlement would be delivered through custodial processes.

Metals Programs
Industrial metals, precision materials, and specialty metal forms.
Energy Assets
Energy resources and commodities designed for transparent reserve records.
Real Estate Structures
Income-generating real estate and debt structures with documented ownership.
Art & Collectibles
Collectibles and fine art with documented identity and provenance.
