Datavault AI (NASDAQ: DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement and real-world asset tokenization technologies, announced that it has entered into a Mutual Services Agreement and Statement of Work with Perpetuals.com Ltd. to list Datavault AI RWA token programs on the Perpetuals exchange platform. The agreement targets trading on regulated venues including PM MTF Ltd., an EU-licensed Multilateral Trading Facility regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission.
The agreement initially covers the MTB Copper project, with provisions for future expansion to additional commodity programs spanning gold, copper, geothermal energy infrastructure, U.S. strategic minerals and European iron-nickel resources. Datavault AI said the agreement provides a regulated trading venue for tokenized physical commodity assets that have historically been accessible mainly to institutional commodity traders, large-scale investors and those with access to specialized futures markets.
The company said three programs carry confirmed combined targeted issuance of more than $328 million, while the broader portfolio includes GoldVault, Coppercoin, MTB Copper, Triton Geothermal and the American Strategic Minerals Digital Asset Program, with implementation expected in phases beginning with MTB Copper.

This move is significant as it aims to democratize access to tokenized physical commodities, which have traditionally been limited to sophisticated investors. By listing on a regulated exchange, Datavault AI is seeking to provide liquidity and transparency in the RWA token market, potentially attracting a broader investor base. The phased rollout starting with copper indicates a strategic approach to test the market before expanding into other commodities like gold and strategic minerals.
The implications of this announcement could extend beyond Datavault AI, as it may set a precedent for how real-world assets are tokenized and traded in regulated environments. If successful, it could encourage other companies to pursue similar listings, thereby increasing the legitimacy and adoption of RWA tokens in mainstream finance. Furthermore, the involvement of an EU-regulated MTF adds a layer of regulatory oversight that could enhance investor confidence.
Datavault AI's technology platform, which spans acoustic sciences and data science, supports the tokenization and management of these assets. The company's Information Data Exchange enables Digital Twins and licensing of name, image, and likeness by anchoring to immutable metadata.
