GnosisDAO Surpasses $3 Million Invested to Tokenized Treasury Bills
GnosisDAO leveraged Centrifuge Prime to create a legal structure to invest in Tokenized Treasury bills through the Anemoy Liquid Treasury Fund (LTF).
GnosisDAO’s decision to invest in RWAs is simple: they gain access to diversified yield sources, leverage a legal infrastructure created by Centrifuge to stay compliant, expand asset classes, and benefit from ongoing management and support from Centrifuge via Centrifuge Prime.
Why Centrifuge?
More and more onchain investors are turning to RWAs to capture high yields that are uncorrelated to crypto volatility. According to RWA.xyz, the tokenized RWA market currently sits at $11.5B and BCG projects it to grow to $16 trillion by 2030.
Centrifuge was an early pioneer and visionary for real-world assets and has since developed standards and communities that have shaped the industry as we know it. Centrifuge has financed $640M in assets to date, and currently has a TVL of over $300M. Centrifuge is a creator of the ERC-7540 standard, Tokenized Asset Coalition and RWA Summit.
Centrifuge offers the infrastructure and ecosystem to tokenize, manage, and invest in a diversified portfolio of real-world assets, with fully collateralized asset pools, investor legal recourse, and an asset-class agnostic protocol encompassing structured credit, real estate, US treasuries, carbon credits, consumer finance, and more. Beyond its onchain financial infrastructure, Centrifuge’s ecosystem includes a DAO supported by a diverse community of finance professionals and developers.

The GnosisDAO investment—part of a larger $10 million initial pledge—represents a key step forward in growing the GnosisDAO treasury through RWA yields. The first investment was into Anemoy LTF, a regulated, fully onchain, and actively managed fund for direct access to U.S. Treasury yield. This allocation is part of an initiative to help diversify GnosisDAO’s treasury management by incorporating RWAs. GnosisDAO uses a DAO-controlled Safe managed by Karpatkey, ensuring full transparency and security. DAO members get full transparent reporting into this portfolio through Centrifuge Prime, with the ability to view and monitor the Safe directly. These investments are facilitated by Centrifuge and backed by its robust legal structure, ensuring safe investment of RWAs that can integrate seamlessly into GnosisDAO’s existing treasury processes while supporting future developments within the DAO.
Summary + Look Ahead
In summary, there are many benefits from this collaboration, including:
Diversified Yield Sources: The allocation provides GnosisDAO with additional and diversified sources of yield.
Legal Infrastructure: Centrifuge worked closely with the GnosisDAO to create a legal framework that ensures security and compliance with RWA investments.
Ongoing Management + Support: Because Centrifuge Prime provides dedicated access to the Centrifuge ecosystem and community, the team will work to provide ongoing support for the RWA portfolio allocated through Prime.
Transparent Reporting: DAO members have full visibility into the portfolio through Centrifuge Prime and can directly monitor the Safe managed by Karpatkey.
