Savea’s SAVW Token Brings Fine Wine Investment On-Chain with Regulatory Backing
London-based fintech startup Savea is modernizing wine investment through blockchain technology with its SAVW token. The ERC-20 token tracks the Liv-ex 1000 index, offering 24/7 exposure to the global fine wine market. Each token is fully backed by physical reserves under Jersey’s regulatory framework, combining traditional finance rigor with crypto accessibility.
Co-founder Sam Mudie emphasizes a compliance-first approach, distancing the project from speculative NFT models. SAVW functions like an ETF with low redemption fees, accepting both fiat and crypto. The structure appeals to institutional investors seeking asset-backed tokens and crypto natives looking for real-world asset exposure.
