About CRWA'26

The 2nd international workshop of Crypto(graphy) for Real-World Assets (CRWA, affiliated with Asiacrypt 2026) brings together cryptographers, blockchain engineers, and financial technologists to address the unique challenges of tokenizing traditional assets. As the financial industry increasingly adopts blockchain technology, new cryptographic solutions are essential to ensure security, privacy, and regulatory compliance in tokenized asset ecosystems.

CRWA'26 focuses on practical cryptographic implementations for high-value, long-lifecycle financial instruments including bonds, equities, commodities, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). The workshop emphasizes real-world deployment challenges, regulatory requirements, and the intersection of traditional finance with decentralized technologies.

Topics of Interest

We welcome both theoretical cryptographic advances and their practical applications in cryptocurrency and real-world asset tokenization scenarios. Contributions may focus on novel cryptographic primitives, protocol innovations, system implementations, or deployment experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Call for Papers/Presentations

CRWA'26 invites submissions on cryptographic methods for real-world asset tokenization. Submissions may describe new theory, protocols, systems, work in progress, published work, or practice-oriented insights — including non-publishable but technically interesting ideas.

Submissions may be a short abstract (up to 3 pages, excluding references) or a full paper. All submissions should include:

Submissions must be written in English and submitted in PDF format. Presentation slots will be 15–25 minutes depending on the number of accepted submissions.
