R25 today announced the official public beta launch of R25 Studio, the core product of its 2.0 architecture.R25 Studio is dedicated to realizing the vision that "anyone can become an asset manager," fully opening up institutional-grade fund setup, operations, and distribution capabilities. By abstracting cumbersome legal documents, back-end systems, and compliance processes into configurable smart contracts, R25 Studio has successfully compressed the fund setup timeline from months to just 10 minutes.The platform is built around four pillars — Build, Manage, Earn, and Distribute — covering Vault creation, subscription and redemption, investment management, fee earning, and distribution. Asset managers no longer need to build complex fund structures from scratch; they can autonomously configure investment parameters, management fees, and performance fee rates onchain, generate dedicated Vault Tokens/Shares, and list their Vaults on channels such as Dapp and Topnod. The platform also provides performance data including NAV, APY, cumulative returns, and maximum drawdown, helping asset managers monitor strategy performance in real time.Previously during the 1.0 phase, Axil launched a private credit Vault on R25 and successfully surpassed $130 million in TVL, validating the reliability of this infrastructure.The application channel for the first batch of managers is now open.
