The post Dogecoin Eyes Real-World Asset Tokenization as Path to Utility appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Dogecoin may be moving beyond its meme-coin origins. On February 26, Dogecoin Foundation director Timothy Stebbing outlined a structured plan to transform DOGE into an asset-backed currency through real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. The proposal, which Stebbing said he has spent 12 months developing, centers on a sidechain-based rules engine called Fractal Engine, a bespoke system denominated entirely in Dogecoin. The pitch is direct: shift the RWA tokenization market onto Fractal Engine, use DOGE as the exclusive trading currency for tokenized assets, then eventually migrate the entire framework to Dogecoin’s base layer through protocol upgrades. Stebbing believes this two-to-three-year roadmap could position Dogecoin as “the premier platform for asset tokenisation, denominated in Dogecoin.” At the time of writing, DOGE traded at $0.09602, down 7.49% in the last 24 hours. What Fractal Engine Actually Proposes Fractal Engine is not a general-purpose blockchain layer. It is designed as a Dogecoin-denominated rules engine specifically built to handle tokenized real-world assets. Stebbing envisions it covering a wide range of asset classes, including hotels, businesses, minerals, oil, gas, and more. The structure is deliberately phased. The sidechain approach allows the model to be stress-tested without touching Dogecoin’s core protocol. If the sidechain proves viable, the plan calls for migrating RWA tokenization to Dogecoin’s Layer 1 through targeted protocol upgrades. The key distinction in Stebbing’s proposal is currency denomination. Rather than tokenizing assets on a neutral or stablecoin-based platform, all trades on Fractal Engine would require DOGE. This would create direct, utility-driven demand for the token, a meaningful departure from the speculative and meme-driven cycles that have historically driven Dogecoin’s price. “If you want to trade, you do it with Dogecoin,” Stebbing wrote in his post on X. That single line captures the core economic logic of the entire proposal. Tokenization Is Already a Serious Institutional Theme…
