what's Ferrous?

Ferrous is a platform that bridges local fiat currencies, particularly in emerging markets like Africa, to the global blockchain economy. It enables users to access tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) such as gold, US Treasuries, bonds, and yield-bearing DeFi instruments without needing crypto knowledge, wallets, or private keys. The app abstracts blockchain complexities to provide a simple, familiar finance experience. Through its infrastructure, Ferrous connects everyday users to alternative markets and on-chain opportunities, focusing on transparency and ease of access. Built with GitHub repositories under FerrousApp and featured on platforms like DoraHacks, it emphasizes rails for tokenized assets amid growing RWA adoption.

Ferrous was featured in eli5_defi's weekly spotlight as one of 9 handpicked projects.
