About Forum

Forum Markets, Incorporated (Nasdaq: ETHZ; expected to change to FRMM on March 2, 2026) is a digital asset platform modernizing capital markets through the tokenization of institutional-grade real-world assets on Ethereum. The company structures and brings cash-generating assets onto blockchain-based infrastructure to unlock liquidity, broaden investor access, and enable more efficient primary issuance and secondary market activity. Forum integrates traditional asset management principles with scalable digital market architecture as it builds a new framework for how real-world value is originated, accessed, and traded.

We believe the global financial system is approaching an inflection point toward the tokenization of a wide range of assets. Real-world assets worth trillions of dollars remain trapped in illiquid, inaccessible markets—historically available only to large institutional investors.

Through tokenization on Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) protocols, we're working to transform these assets into transparent, programmable financial products that expand access to institutional-grade investments. From auto loans to manufactured housing loans, from aerospace equipment to commercial real estate, we're building the infrastructure to bring real-world value on chain.

To build the future of tokenized finance, we've established four strategic pillars:

  • Ecosystem: Through our exclusive partnership with Liquidity.io—a FINRA-licensed broker/dealer, transfer agent, MPC custodian and regulated securities exchange—we've secured the foundation to create compliant, tradable tokenized assets with primary and secondary liquidity on Ethereum L2 protocols.
  • Access: Forum expands investor access to income-producing real-world assets by transforming them into regulated, tokenized products, enabling broader participation, improved liquidity, and global reach for asset classes with traditionally limited access
  • Yield: Investing in Ethereum’s L2 networks supports the infrastructure that makes on-chain finance scalable for real-world use. As demand for efficient, transparent, tokenized markets grows, these networks will underpin on-chain activity, driving adoption, liquidity, and yield for Forum
  • Scale: Converting real-world assets into digital, on-chain instruments unlocks liquidity, transparency, and efficiency in previously inaccessible markets, creating new revenue streams and expanding Forum’s reach across traditional and decentralized finance

Forum is executing on a clear roadmap to bring real-world assets on chain at institutional scale. We're initially focused on four high-value vertical markets:

  • Auto loans, expanding into consumer credit
  • Manufactured home loans, with potential for broader mortgage markets
  • Aerospace equipment, extending to maritime and heavy equipment
  • Commercial real estate and land

The company’s business model encompasses four economic value engines:

  • Yield – Forum acquires and holds yield-generating assets on our balance sheet until they are tokenized
  • Origination Fees – Bringing real world transactions to regulated exchanges such as Liquidity.io
  • Asset Management Fees – Recurring revenue as a percentage of Token AUM
  • Transaction Fees – Secondary market, per trade fee

We launched our first tokenized asset on Liquidity.io in February 2026, backed by rigorous AI-assisted underwriting, diversified exposures, and aligned partnership dynamics. We continue to maintain a substantial Ethereum treasury position as we grow into a leading institutional gateway for tokenized real-world assets leveraging Ethereum L2 protocols."
