Sapphire Swap Launches Tokenized Gemstone Marketplace

On May 13, 2025, Sapphire Swap will officially launch the world’s first AI-driven gemstone marketplace on the Base blockchain. Introduced through the PROOF platform. Sapphire Swap allows users to invest in tokenized sapphires where each backed by a certified, ethically sourced physical stone stored securely. The platform is powered by its native token, $SFT, and aims to bring RWA into DeFi with a transparent, accessible investment model.

The sapphires, sourced from Sri Lanka, come with industry-grade certifications. Through its GemBidder auction system, users can bid on rare stones like high-value Gewda sapphires. Total returns projected are up to 300%. The platform also features a luxury jewelry line under “Sapphire & Co.” and offers physical delivery and redemption options.

AI, Governance, and Ecosystem Perks with Sapphire Swap

Sapphire Swap employs artificial intelligence to grade gemstones, ensuring authenticity and precision. The $SFT token plays a central role in the ecosystem, enabling governance participation, auction access, staking through GemStake, fee discounts, and unlocking premium features. Total supply of 1 billion tokens and a final tax structure of 5/5. The tokenomics are designed for sustainability and community reward.

Led by Web3 strategist Riz Mohamed and business advisor Chris Maalouf, SapphireSwap’s team brings together expertise in blockchain, gemstone markets, and e-commerce. The project is backed by key partners including Covey Network and Genesis Capital, and has completed KYC verification. The project has completed smart contract audits, and locked liquidity for 365 days via Assure DeFi.

Bridging Tradition and Innovation

Sapphire Swap is pioneering a new asset class where it is bridging traditional gem investing with the speed, transparency, and efficiency of DeFi. RWAs are projected to become a $5 trillion market by 2035. This launch represents a key milestone in tokenizing tangible, high-value assets.
