Investing Yachts Introduces Its Real-World Asset (RWA) Yacht Charter Model

Investing Yachts has announced the launch of a real-world asset (RWA) yacht charter framework that applies blockchain technology to the economics of luxury yachting.

The initiative introduces a tokenized structure designed to provide broader access to revenue opportunities traditionally reserved for high-net-worth participants in the private yachting sector, through its forthcoming $YATE token. By merging on-chain finance with the global yacht charter industry, Investing Yachts aims to address longstanding challenges associated with yacht ownership and investment, including substantial capital requirements, limited liquidity, and the operational burden of managing charter assets. The platforms approach leverages tokenization to create a system where exposure to charter revenues is represented digitally and supported by a professionally managed fleet.

Tokenized Charter Economics

The Investing Yachts ecosystem is structured around a rules-driven model that links real-world charter performance to tokenholder participation. A significant portion of net charter income is intended to be returned to participants who commit their $YATE tokens to designated protocol vaults. Different lock-up periods are designed to correspond with varying levels of profit participation, encouraging longer-term alignment with the platforms growth.

In addition, the model incorporates a supply-reduction mechanism under which a share of net charter profits is allocated to repurchase $YATE tokens in the market and permanently remove them from circulation. This approach is designed to gradually reduce supply over time while linking token dynamics to real-world revenue.

Token issuance is also linked to asset expansion. New $YATE tokens are planned to be minted in connection with the acquisition of additional yachts or related real-world assets, using a net asset value–based framework intended to align token supply with the underlying fleet and its earning potential.

$YATE Pre-Sale Details

According to Investing Yachts, the $YATE token pre-sale is expected to commence on February 25, 2026. The pre-sale is positioned as an opportunity for early community participation ahead of broader market availability.

The pricing model outlined in the project‘s documentation starts at 0.10 USDT per token, with an automatic daily price increase of 0.75% over nine months. The project targets a post–pre-sale listing price of 1.00 USDT. Vesting schedules and additional supply management mechanisms are described in the platform’s whitepaper, with an emphasis on long-term sustainability and alignment between early supporters and future participants.

Market Access and Industry Relationships

The global yacht charter market represents a multi-billion-dollar industry that has historically been difficult for retail participants to access. Investing Yachts aims to introduce a token-based participation layer that brings liquidity and transparency to a largely offline sector.

To support this strategy, the project has formed relationships with established yacht brokers and industry intermediaries. These partnerships are intended to assist with vessel sourcing, acquisition negotiations, and charter deployment in high-demand regions, supporting the operational side of the platforms RWA model.
