February 12 (PR Newswire) — Ethereum treasury firm ETHZilla (ETHZ) has launched Eurus Aero Token I, the first tokenized real-world asset backed by commercial aircraft engines, via its wholly owned subsidiary ETHZilla Aerospace LLC. Built on Ethereum Layer 2, the token is collateralized by two CFM56 commercial jet engines (valued at ~$12.2 million total) leased to a major U.S. airline. Each token is priced at $100, with a 10-token minimum purchase, and targets an ~11% return through the end of the lease term. ETHZilla noted the product gives accredited investors access to an asset class typically limited to private aviation leasing funds or large institutional deals. The firm also plans to roll out additional tokenized asset classes soon, including prefabricated home loans and auto loans.
