ASK Group Partners With Eric Schmidt-Backed Keeta to Tokenize Oil, Gold, Silver and Copper by 2027

UAE-based ASK Group and U.S. blockchain firm Keeta have formed a joint venture to build a public exchange that turns commodities such as oil, gold, silver and copper into fractional tokens, with a planned launch by 2027. The project targets 1-to-1 reserve backing with audited holdings, 400-millisecond settlement, and on-chain proof of reserves, while also positioning Keeta's Layer 1 network for cross-border remittances.
