Real-world asset tokenisation brings ownership of physical assets onto the blockchain by converting legal ownership rights into digital tokens. The asset can be property, artwork, securities or a rough diamond.
The result is faster verification, simpler transfers and transparent ownership records.
Tokenisation is gaining momentum across global finance because it makes real-world assets more accessible, transparent and transferable. Financial institutions, asset managers and technology providers are already investing heavily in the sector.
As of July 2026, more than US$31 billion in real-world assets has been tokenised on public blockchains, including the BlackRock BUIDL fund with US$2.8 billion under management.
Major industry forecasts include:
Tokenisation transforms how real-world assets are owned, transferred and verified.
Key advantages include:
The exact benefits depend on the asset, but blockchain consistently improves accessibility, transparency and ownership verification.
The traditional rough diamond market is difficult for retail investors to access, verify and navigate. Ownership records, provenance information, storage and transfer processes are often fragmented or unavailable.
Tokenisation brings these elements together digitally. KimberLite connects verified rough diamonds with blockchain ownership records, provenance data and marketplace access through KimberMarket.
Fractional ownership divides a high-value asset into smaller ownership portions.
Within the KimberLite ecosystem, eCarats give investors direct fractional ownership of a rough diamond. This creates a more accessible entry point into premium stones without requiring one investor to purchase the full asset.
No. Cryptocurrency experience is not required.
Our team will guide you through setting up a wallet, purchasing $KIMBER through an exchange partner and acquiring an eDiamond or eCarat.
We also provide a beginner’s guide to rough diamonds, covering key industry terms and the factors to consider when choosing a stone. Support is also available if you decide to cut, polish or GIA-grade your diamond.
$KIMBER is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network. ERC-20 is a widely supported standard compatible with established wallets and blockchain services.
KimberLite is also built for multi-chain expansion, increasing accessibility as the ecosystem grows.
No. An Ethereum-compatible wallet that supports ERC-20 tokens should be able to hold $KIMBER.
Popular Ethereum wallets include MetaMask and Trust Wallet. The tutorials below explain how to install each wallet and add $KIMBER.
Always verify the token contract address through an official KimberLite channel before adding or transferring tokens.
KimberLite cannot restore access to your wallet. Every wallet is self-custody, which means its security and recovery are entirely your responsibility.
When you set up a wallet you receive a 12-word secret recovery phrase. Please write it down and store the hard copy in a safe place.
If you lose access and cannot recover the wallet with that phrase, any cryptocurrency held in it—including KimberLite Tokens—will be permanently lost.
In exceptional circumstances involving eDiamonds or eCarats, KimberLite can assess replacement options. Any approved replacement requires the original token to be permanently destroyed and the associated costs covered by the owner.
An eDiamond is a blockchain ownership record connected directly to a specific physical rough diamond held in secure storage.
It contains information about the stone’s characteristics, origin and provenance, creating a traceable connection between the digital asset and physical diamond.
The provenance record continues to grow when significant events occur, including ownership transfers, cutting and polishing.
Ownership of an eDiamond is verified through legal ownership documents linked to the token.
The key document is the Malca Amit storage receipt. The holder of the eDiamond also holds this receipt, confirming ownership of the physical diamond. When you receive your eDiamond, title to the stone transfers automatically to you.
Alongside the eDiamond you also receive a Provenance Token. This contains the quality documentation, Kimberley Process certificates and the complete chain-of-custody records.
Each physical rough diamond is laser-etched with a unique identification number that matches the ownership details stored in your eDiamond or eCarat.
Malca-Amit stores the physical diamonds backing KimberLite eDiamonds in its insured New York vault.
Before entering storage, each diamond is independently graded and supported by complete chain-of-custody records, including Kimberley Process documentation. The stones are sourced through KimberLite’s verified supply chain, including sister company BSR Global, while the assets and custody records undergo regular third-party audits.
Together, these measures connect every eDiamond to a specific and verifiable physical rough diamond.
An eCarat represents fractional ownership of a rough diamond rather than ownership of the full stone.
This gives investors a more accessible entry point into the KimberLite diamond ecosystem. The blockchain ownership record confirms each holder’s allocation and its connection to the physical asset.
When a diamond has multiple owners, major decisions are managed through smart-contract voting under the applicable ownership terms.
KimberMarket is the official marketplace for buying and selling eDiamonds and eCarats.
Browse available assets, compare their characteristics and complete your purchase using $KIMBER. Once the transaction is confirmed, ownership transfers directly to your wallet together with the associated blockchain ownership records.
You can also list your eDiamond or eCarat for sale through KimberMarket at any time. If you own an entire eDiamond, you also have the option to redeem it for the corresponding physical rough diamond, with insured delivery included at no additional cost.
You can list an eDiamond or eCarat for sale on KimberMarket at any time, with no ownership lock-up period.
Once the asset is sold, ownership transfers to the buyer and the proceeds are paid to your wallet in $KIMBER. A small KimberMarket transaction fee applies.
No—investors are free to purchase and hold as many eDiamonds or eCarats as they wish. No ownership limits apply.
Every eDiamond can be redeemed through KimberMarket for its corresponding physical rough diamond, with insured delivery included at no additional cost.
Once redemption is complete, the eDiamond is permanently removed from circulation and the physical stone is delivered under the applicable identity-verification, jurisdiction and service terms.
A rough diamond’s value is influenced by its size, colour, clarity, shape and expected polished-diamond recovery.
Traditionally, rough diamonds are sold in bulk parcels using an average price per carat across the group. This simplifies wholesale trading but makes the value of individual stones less transparent.
KimberLite offers each eDiamond individually at wholesale pricing, creating clearer entry points and avoiding the higher mark-ups associated with retail diamonds.
Buying eDiamonds and eCarats through KimberMarket is simple and transparent.
KimberLite does not charge additional platform fees when you purchase an asset. Like all Ethereum transactions, a standard blockchain gas fee is required to transfer $KIMBER between wallets and complete the transaction.
A small marketplace fee applies when selling through KimberMarket. Redeeming an eDiamond for its corresponding physical rough diamond, including insured delivery by Malca-Amit, is provided at no additional cost.
Verified investors can register for KimberMarket live auctions featuring exceptional investment-grade rough diamonds, including flawless, coloured and large stones.
Bidding remains anonymous to protect investor privacy. Participants see only the bid history and each bidder’s wallet address.
When bidding closes, the winner’s payment is processed in $KIMBER and the eDiamond, together with full ownership rights, transfers directly to their wallet.
Provenance is the foundation of trust in the rough diamond market.
Knowing where a diamond originated, how it has been handled and who has owned it provides confidence that the asset is genuine, ethically sourced and accurately represented.
Every eDiamond is paired with a blockchain-based Provenance Token that creates a permanent, transparent record of the diamond's journey, including its origin, ownership history, Kimberley Process compliance, cutting and polishing milestones, and supporting documentation. This strengthens transparency, protects ownership and increases investor confidence.
Yes. KimberLite is expanding beyond rough diamonds to support additional tokenised real-world assets, including gold.
Each digital asset will follow the same core model as eDiamonds, with corresponding physical backing, secure storage and transparent blockchain ownership records.
KimberRush is an immersive Web3 game that extends the KimberLite ecosystem through interactive digital ownership.
Players can explore, discover and collect digital diamonds, with every in-game diamond linked to a corresponding real-world eDiamond available through KimberMarket.
KimberRush brings gaming and tokenised real-world assets together in a unique digital experience.
When you acquire an eDiamond or eCarat, legal ownership of the corresponding physical rough diamond transfers to you immediately. The asset remains securely stored with Malca-Amit in New York.
If KimberLite stops operating, the diamond remains your property. Company creditors have no claim over it because ownership has already transferred away from KimberLite.
Malca-Amit will continue holding the asset and contact you directly regarding continued storage or physical delivery.
$KIMBER is the utility token connecting the KimberLite ecosystem.
Its core uses include:
$KIMBER has a fixed maximum supply of 200 million tokens.
Yes. KimberLite uses vesting and lock periods to control how allocated tokens enter circulation and align contributors with the project’s long-term development.
At launch, 10,335,000 $KIMBER will be in circulation, representing 5.17% of the total supply. The remaining 189,665,000 tokens will enter circulation according to the applicable allocation, vesting and rewards schedules.
Locked allocations are released at an average rate of approximately 1.1% per month during the first 60 months. By the end of month 60, 143,372,083 $KIMBER—71.69% of the total supply—will be in circulation.
The remaining supply consists of the 20 million team allocation and 36,627,917 tokens reserved for future Community Rewards Pool distributions.
The team allocation represents 10% of the total $KIMBER supply.
These tokens remain locked for five years from the Token Generation Event. Linear release then begins in month 61 and continues over the following 12 months.
Long-term demand is supported by $KIMBER’s role across eDiamond and eCarat purchases, KimberMarket transactions, cashback, staking, auctions, Community Rewards Pool distributions and KimberRush.
Vesting schedules and lock periods regulate how tokens enter circulation, while token release is aligned with projected growth in diamond sales and ecosystem activity.
Together, these mechanisms connect $KIMBER utility to real platform use and support a more balanced token economy over time.
KimberLite will allow holders to stake $KIMBER for additional ecosystem benefits.
Staking benefits include:
Staking power is calculated using both the number of tokens committed and the length of the staking period. A larger or longer commitment increases the holder’s reward allocation.
KimberLite worked with FinDaS to develop its tokenomics model using discounted cash flow analysis and projected ecosystem revenue.
FinDaS specialises in Web3 economy design and has contributed to more than 250 projects. Its modelling focuses on long-term economic fundamentals, including transaction revenue, staking activity and treasury income, rather than short-term market hype.
Further information is available on the FinDaS website.
Every eDiamond or eCarat purchase completed with $KIMBER receives 2.5% cashback.
Staking $KIMBER increases the cashback rate according to the holder’s staking power, up to a maximum of 10% on KimberMarket purchases. Cashback is paid in $KIMBER at the prevailing market price.
Cashback is paused while the soft-floor mechanism is active.
$KIMBER serves as the payment token across the KimberLite ecosystem, connecting activity within KimberMarket and KimberRush to a single digital economy.
Using one ecosystem currency creates consistent demand, simplifies transactions and links platform growth directly to $KIMBER utility. Purchases of eDiamonds and eCarats also receive the applicable cashback rate.
eDiamond and eCarat prices are denominated in USDC. When payment is made in $KIMBER, the number of tokens required is calculated using the applicable $KIMBER exchange rate.
As the market price of $KIMBER changes, the token amount required for the same USDC-denominated purchase changes accordingly.
This keeps the underlying asset price stable in USDC while allowing $KIMBER to function as the ecosystem payment token.
The soft floor works alongside dynamic pricing to encourage ecosystem activity when $KIMBER trades below US$0.10.
While the mechanism is active, qualifying eDiamond, eCarat and ecosystem purchases use a preferential conversion rate. Investors therefore spend fewer $KIMBER than the standard market-rate calculation requires.
The soft floor supports token utility during periods of lower market pricing. It does not guarantee a minimum trading price, prevent losses or remove market volatility.
The initial soft-floor level is US$0.10 per $KIMBER and can be reviewed as the ecosystem develops.
The Community Rewards Pool distributes $KIMBER to holders and stakers in recurring 14-day periods known as epochs.
Under the current model:
The pool begins with 31.7% of the total supply, equal to 63.4 million $KIMBER. This distribution model produces approximately 3.5% first-year issuance, with the rate decreasing over time.
Rewards are claimed after each epoch in accordance with the final calculation and distribution terms.
Twenty per cent of net profit from eDiamond and eCarat sales is allocated to $KIMBER repurchases for the Community Rewards Pool.
Lower token prices allow the same profit allocation to repurchase more $KIMBER, while higher prices result in fewer tokens being added. This creates a responsive replenishment mechanism linked to real ecosystem revenue.
Replenishment takes place whenever the pool holds less than 75% of its original allocation. Tokens acquired above that threshold are directed to the treasury.
This model supports the long-term sustainability of Community Rewards Pool distributions while creating recurring market demand for $KIMBER.
KimberLite is structured around direct ownership of physically backed real-world assets, with regulatory compliance built into its operating model.
eDiamonds and eCarats provide documented ownership rights connected to physical rough diamonds held in secure custody. Their value and redemption rights are tied to the underlying assets rather than participation in a pooled investment vehicle.
This structure supports the treatment of eDiamonds and eCarats as tokenised real-world assets rather than securities. The applicable legal treatment always depends on the relevant asset, transaction and jurisdiction.
