SINGAPORE, July 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Davis Commodities Limited (Nasdaq: DTCK), a Singapore-headquartered agricultural trading company, today announced a strategic assessment of U.S.-based stablecoin licensing and ESG-linked tokenized commodity flows, in response to rapidly evolving digital asset regulations and increasing institutional demand for compliant blockchain infrastructure. This evaluation follows the recent passage of the GENIUS Act, signed into U.S. law on July 17, 2025, which establishes a federal regulatory framework for fiat-backed stablecoin issuers and digital settlement providers. The move is widely regarded by industry analysts as a major regulatory milestone enabling institutional-grade blockchain adoption in cross-border finance. Toward a $1B+ ESG Tokenized Trade Ecosystem Davis Commodities has initiated preparatory steps to establish a wholly owned U.S. entity—Davis Digital Assets Inc.—to explore potential issuance of regulated digital instruments. The company estimates, based on early modeling, that tokenized trade structures across its ESG-certified product lines could unlock $1–3 billion in addressable settlement volume over the next 36 months. This assessment reflects trends similar to those seen in public market peers such as Circle, whose digital dollar infrastructure has shown increasing institutional adoption since its U.S. listing. Introducing “DCC”: A Stablecoin Concept for ESG-Linked Agri-Trade The company is evaluating the viability of a proprietary digital settlement layer—Davis Commodities Coin (DCC)—designed to support traceable trade of certified products such as Bonsucro-certified sugar and ISCC-certified rice. If launched, DCC could be programmed to enable: T+0 to T+1 settlement cycles, reducing reconciliation friction by an estimated 80%Enhanced working capital turnover, with 2–3x faster capital rotationSettlement of up to $500 million in annual notional trade volume across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East All figures reflect internal modeling and remain subject to further feasibility studies and regulatory alignment. Building Tokenized Real-World Commodity Infrastructure In parallel, Davis Commodities is exploring tokenization frameworks that could digitize verified agri-assets into Real-World Asset (RWA) tokens. These frameworks aim to serve institutional investors seeking ESG-integrated, blockchain-native exposure to physical commodities. Potential platform features under evaluation include: ESG metadata and provenance traceabilitySmart contract-based invoice settlement and yield structuresIntegration with compliant custodians, price oracles, and AML/KYC layers According to research from Citi and McKinsey, global tokenized asset markets could exceed $10 trillion by 2030, with ESG finance representing a growing sub-segment. Capturing Digital Capital Momentum Davis Commodities believes that aligning commodity flows with regulated tokenized finance may enhance: Access to green infrastructure funds, sovereign-linked ESG capital, and DeFi-adjacent investorsAlgorithmic credit scoring using live supply chain metricsCompliant cross-chain, multi-currency agri-settlement gateways Secondary token markets—anchored in real-world outputs—could also pave the way for new ESG-yield instruments tied to global food trade. Executive Commentary Ms. Li Peng Leck, Executive Chairwoman of Davis Commodities, stated: “As frameworks like the GENIUS Act shape a new era of regulated digital finance, we are actively exploring how programmable capital can intersect with verified commodity flows. Our goal is to responsibly bridge traditional agri-trade with transparent, token-enabled capital solutions that scale.” Regulatory-First, Innovation-Led No token issuance or stablecoin launch has taken place. All initiatives remain subject to internal review, regulatory consultation, and technological readiness. Davis Commodities will continue engaging stakeholders across finance, sustainability, and compliance to determine next steps.
