Sharikat Mubasher: Hamilton, a protocol specializing in tokenizing real-world assets (RWA) on Bitcoin, collected $1.7 million in a pre-seed funding round led by DisrupTech Ventures.

Several strategic investors including CMS, DeSpread, Hyperithm, and Core Ventures participated in the round, the company announced in a recent statement.

Hamilton bridges traditional finance with Bitcoin by making tokenized real-world assets, such as T-Bills, Sukuk, and real estate, accessible to institutions and individuals worldwide. It leverages Bitcoin’s unmatched security and decentralization to tokenize real-world assets.

With the RWA market projected to reach $30 trillion by 2030, Hamilton is creating a protocol to make financial products globally accessible and inclusive, with a strong focus on emerging markets.

Mohamed Elkasstawi, CEO of Hamilton, said: “Bitcoin isn’t just digital gold, it’s the foundational layer of future capital markets. With unparalleled security, decentralization, and resilience, Bitcoin provides the ideal infrastructure to democratize access to capital markets for everyone, everywhere.”

For his part, Malek Sultan, Co-Founder and Partner of DisrupTech Ventures, commented: “Investments in gold, Treasury bills, and fixed-income products have traditionally been exclusive to individuals and institutions with millions in capital. Hamilton is breaking down these barriers through tokenization, enabling anyone, anywhere in the world, to participate in these institutional-grade investments with just one dollar.”

Hamilton is poised to launch three flagship offerings: HUSD, the first Bitcoin-native stablecoin backed by U.S. Treasury bills; HUST, tokenized U.S. Treasuries; and Publius, a platform enabling financial institutions to securely tokenize any asset on Bitcoin. These offerings provide institutions and individuals with seamless access to capital markets on the world’s most decentralized network.

Hamilton was founded by Mohamed Elkasstawi and Ehab Zaghloul to tackle systemic barriers to financial access by offering low-cost, stable financial products for emerging markets, where currency devaluation and economic instability restrict growth and financial security.
