There's an interesting piece of news—Japanese business giant Mitsui & Co. is planning to get involved. Their subsidiary specializing in digital asset management is planning to launch Japan's first digital security product based on real assets, targeting large assets like airplanes and ships.
It could be available as early as the 2026 fiscal year (starting from April), mainly aimed at retail investors. The key feature is supporting asset fragmentation—that is, ordinary retail investors can participate with very low thresholds. The minimum subscription amount is around 100,000 yen, so there's no need to spend tens of millions to buy an entire aircraft.
This actually reflects a trend: traditional large enterprises are starting to seriously explore tokenized assets. From real estate to art, and now to transportation vehicles, the imagination space for on-chain physical assets is indeed opening up. Japan, as a developed market, is also following suit, indicating that this is not just hype but genuinely being implemented.

I told you, the wave of real asset tokenization is here, and big companies can't sit still anymore.
Retail investors can finally get a piece of the pie, which is true democratization.
Wait, is Japan serious this time? Launching in 2026, it won't be another PPT fundraising, right?
Fragmented investment in airplanes and ships, even small investors can play with big assets, which seems quite imaginative.
Traditional capital is starting to undergo chain transformation, indicating that the track has been successfully paved, not just a trick to cut leeks.
The threshold of 100,000 yen, comparable to stock trading, this is what Web3 should look like.
Large enterprises are following RWA, and this signal is more valuable than any announcement.

Huh? You can buy airplane wreckage with 100,000 yen? If that really becomes a reality, I’ll be convinced.

Can you play with 100,000 yen? How diluted would that be? What can you really get at that time?

100,000 Yen? This threshold is really friendly; retail investors can finally get in on the action.
