MapNode Brings Decentralized ETFs into the Web3 Era – Democratizing Global Finance

ETFs have long been one of Wall Street’s most popular financial instruments, allowing millions of investors to access diversified portfolios of stocks, bonds, and other assets. Now, MapNode is bringing this model into the Web3 world with decentralized ETFs, where anyone can become a fund manager.

Unlike traditional ETFs controlled by giants like BlackRock or Vanguard, ETFs on MapNode are powered entirely by smart contracts and a DeFi Marketplace. Users can create asset portfolios, issue fund tokens, and trade transparently on the blockchain all without banks or intermediary fund managers.

The MapNode ecosystem includes MapWallet (storage wallet), MapScan (data explorer), the Restake & Super Node mechanism, and smart contract deployment capabilities. At its core is MAP Coin the utility token used for transaction fees, staking, and smart contract execution.

Compared to traditional ETFs, decentralized ETFs offer key advantages: full transparency, lower costs, no intermediaries, and global accessibility. This aligns with the broader “tokenization of assets” trend, projected to reach $10 trillion by 2030.

If the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF is proof of the convergence between traditional finance and crypto, MapNode takes it further by empowering the community. Anyone can issue and manage their own fund marking a major step toward the democratization of global finance.
