Alpha Ladder Finance has been granted a patent in Singapore for its Non-Fungible Digital Twin (NFDT) framework, a blockchain-native architecture designed to digitally represent real-world assets. This patent, awarded by the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore, marks a significant advancement in Web3 and digital infrastructure, allowing for verifiable, compliant, and programmable ownership through tokens.
The NFDT framework, which was initially filed in April 2021, addresses the limitations of static Non-Fungible Token (NFT) models by introducing an advanced smart contract architecture. This enables asset records to evolve by capturing real-world changes in usage, condition, and ownership through a secure, timestamped ledger. Unlike conventional NFTs, NFDTs are designed for live assets with evolving data streams, supporting compliance-grade reporting and asset-backed financing.
Dr Bo Bai, Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of Alpha Ladder Group, stated, “We started building the NFDT framework because we knew the market would eventually demand real-time, non-fungible, and verifiable asset intelligence, not static records or speculation.”
The NFDT technology is expected to play a crucial role in the burgeoning market for real-world asset tokenisation, projected to surpass $16 trillion by 2030. This growth is driven by demand from sovereign wealth funds, financial institutions, and capital market participants, who increasingly expect transparency and auditability.
With the patent secured, Alpha Ladder Finance is collaborating with strategic partners to roll out NFDT-powered applications across various sectors, including renewable energy, real estate, and ESG-linked financial products. This innovation aims to empower enterprises, investors, and regulators by bridging real-world performance with digital finance.
