Initially serving institutional markets in India and Africa, Hyphen has already emerged as India’s largest asset tokenization protocol. To date, it has facilitated tokenization of over $800 million in assets and enabled $150 million in credit lines through partnerships with institutions such as the World Bank, Mastercard, over 10 commercial banks, and regulatory bodies. With its upcoming public mainnet launch, Hyphen is now gearing up for a global market rollout.

As a founding member, he advised on business and token models across diverse verticals including remittances, asset management, logistics, and GDPR compliance. He also served on the Investment Advisory Board of BullToken (Norway) and the Advisory Board of SocialPay (USA).
Prior to his entrepreneurial journey in technology, Ashish spent 15 years in the commodity and currency markets focusing on market risk management. He is a Certified Public Accountant by qualification.
