Many people severely underestimate the difficulty of RWA, ultimately because they haven't been exposed to the underlying architecture of traditional finance.



RWA projects sound a bit "anti-Web3." They don't prioritize speed or hype; instead, they focus on compliance, clearing, risk control, and permissions—things that seem very "traditional." These points may go unnoticed by retail investors, but for institutional investors, they are precisely the dividing line between whether they can or dare to use it.

To put it simply, retail investors care about novelty and return expectations, while institutions care about legal frameworks and risk controllability. Those who truly implement RWA are often not about flashy features but about mastering these "boring" compliance details. This is the real threshold for institutional-level entry.

Retail investors only look at the return rate, while institutions focus on risk management. The difference is really significant.

Hi, finally someone has seen through it. Retail investors are still speculating on concepts, while institutions have already seen through this trick.

Damn, no wonder those RWA projects are all so dull... Compliance, compliance, compliance, it’s putting me to sleep.

I've fallen into this trap before. I was envious when I saw others' RWA project funding news, but once I got in, it was all legal documents—so damn boring I wanted to leave immediately. Now, after reading this article, oh damn, I finally understand why institutional investors are all lining up, while retail investors can only eat dust.

Compliance is indeed a threshold, but someone really needs to master it thoroughly. Retail investors only look at the hype; institutions focus on whether they can sleep peacefully. The gap between the two is not small, neither is it insignificant. It seems that most RWA projects are still just talk on paper.

Sounds reasonable, but frankly, retail investors are just waiting to be taken advantage of, aren't they?
