Lorenzo Protocol has become the only RWA project my Karachi family office trusts with real dollar capital.

I run a family office in Karachi.
In 2025, we don’t do meme coins. We don’t do 100x leverage. We do boring, dollar-based, regulated private credit that pays 6–9% with legal wrappers and audited custody the same stuff our fathers kept in fixed deposits at HBL and UBL, only now with better returns and no branch visits.
In July, one of our private bankers in Dubai (the kind who still writes emails in Arial 12) forwarded a 52-page term sheet for a new on-chain fund called Lorenzo Protocol.
The yields were from U.S. Treasuries and investment-grade corporates. The legal wrapper was tighter than anything we had seen from local banks. The custody chain was audited by Big-4.
We wired $12 million the same week from our Dubai entity.
This is my real story of how Lorenzo became the first (and only) RWA protocol my Pakistani family office has ever allocated to.
The World Liberty Financial partnership was the key that unlocked actual regulated cash flows for on-chain distribution. For the first time, we could earn real-world fixed income in dollars without leaving the blockchain or converting to PKR at terrible bank rates.
BANK token locking is brutal by DeFi standards, but it’s exactly what we wanted. Four-year escrows with linear reward scaling. We locked 80% of our position for the maximum boost. The holder base now looks more like a closed-end fund in Singapore than a crypto Telegram group.
stBTC was the feature that finally convinced our uncles who still hold Bitcoin in cold storage since 2017. Lorenzo now lets them earn 5-8% on their BTC through tokenized staking derivatives backed by over-collateralized regulated bonds. No wrapping. No lending to strangers. Just proper yield on coins they were never going to sell anyway.
TVL growth has been driven by private wires that never hit public dashboards. The $47 million from two Swiss banks and one Singapore conglomerate didn’t come with a tweet or a Telegram announcement. It came with signed legal agreements and KYC’ed wallets — the same process we use for our Dubai fixed deposits.
The Financial Abstraction Layer is the tool we had been begging local banks for since 2022. One click routes capital across private credit, volatility, quant, and structured products with individual risk controls. This is what wealth management looks like when you remove the middlemen and their 2% fees.
Regulatory infrastructure is already in place across Singapore, Cayman, and BVI with licensed entities and insurance wrappers. This is not “working on compliance.” This is compliance done — the same standard our Dubai entity demands.
The 2026 OTF pipeline includes three new funds we have already soft-circled: European private credit, Asian real estate receivables, and volatility income. All with audited track records and third-party risk modeling.
Risks exist: strategy underperformance, redemption pressure in extreme scenarios. But everything is over-collateralized by 150%+, insured, and ring-fenced safer than most local bank fixed deposits.
Lorenzo Protocol has become the only RWA project my Karachi family office trusts with real dollar capital.
When the first public announcement drops, the market won’t be ready but we already are.
Are you allocated to the RWA project Pakistani family offices are quietly using?
