Skip the theory and start issuing assets
What Are Arkade Assets
Arkade Assets let you create and transfer custom assets on Bitcoin. They work like regular Bitcoin payments — same wallet, same transactions — with asset balances attached. You can issue any asset: a stablecoin, a loyalty point, a real-world asset. Recipients need only an Arkade address to receive it.What Makes Them Bitcoin-Native
Assets don’t live on a separate chain or sidechain. They move inside standard Bitcoin transactions alongside satoshis, settled on the Bitcoin base layer. The supply rules are enforced by the protocol — not by a trusted issuer. Whoever holds the control asset at issuance time controls the supply. Burning it permanently caps it. No surprises.What You Can Build
- Stablecoins and real-world assets settled directly on Bitcoin
- Multi-asset wallets with Bitcoin and custom assets side by side
- Programmable assets with supply controls and on-chain metadata commitments
