# How RWALinks Works?

The process is simplified into three steps:

1. Asset owners/partners → tokenize assets via Links Nodes to generate Token0 (base RWA token).
2. Cross-chain transfer → Token0 passes through the Links Protocol & Gateway to mint Token1 on major public chains.
3. Secondary trading → Token1 is staked and re-minted as Token2, which enters PumpUp.ai and other DEXs, enabling global investors to trade, discover prices, and exit.
