Situation

In July , Chintai, a real-world asset (RWA) focused blockchain network, faced a pivotal announcement. Asset manager Kin Capital was set to launch a $ million tokenized real estate debt fund on the Chintai network. This three-month campaign (July through September was more than a standard funding news update; it was an opportunity to showcase Chintai's platform as a leader in RWA infrastructure rather than let the story fade as just another routine fundraising press release. The challenge was clear: how to elevate this announcement into a compelling narrative that would capture top-tier media interest and position Chintai at the forefront of the emerging RWA market

Task

Objective: Craft a narrative and media strategy that transforms Chintai's fundraising announcement into a market-shaping story of technological innovation and credibility. The team's goal was to secure prominent coverage that underscored Chintai's role as a critical missing piece for scaling real-world assets on Web , thereby attracting investor and industry validation.
In essence, the task was to position Chintai as a thought leader and pioneer in the RWA space through this announcement, rather than letting it be viewed as a one-off transaction or minor news item. This meant we needed to highlight the significance of the launch and the strength of its backers, framing the news in a broader context of industry transformation

Action

We built the campaign narrative around Chintai's pivotal role in bridging traditional finance and blockchain, using the fund launch as proof of concept. Our team's strategy included several key actions:

01

Emphasized Investor Credibility

We highlighted the calibre of investors and partners backing the $ M fund, underscoring their credibility to lend weight to the story. By showcasing high-profile backers, we established trust and signalled that serious industry players supported the initiative.

02

Showcased Disruptive Tech

We framed Chintai's technology as a critical missing piece for scaling real-world assets in Web . By explaining the fund's tokenisation and Chintai's regulatory credentials (licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore), we positioned Chintai as the infrastructure leader enabling greater efficiency and innovation in RWA markets

03

Humanised the Vision

We secured and incorporated visionary founder quotes and insights from Chintai's CEO, David Packham, to humanise the innovation. These quotes provided journalists with compelling angles and clearly articulated how this collaboration bridges traditional finance with blockchain innovation. This personal touch helped bring the story to life and emphasised the founders' thought leadership.

Execution

In executing the media outreach, we leveraged an exclusive strategy: the story was first offered as an exclusive to CoinDesk. This ensured the news broke on a Tier- platform with maximum impact. Once CoinDesk ran the story, we amplified the announcement across a wide press list. We pitched tailored angles to additional top-tier publications and industry outlets, focusing on the narrative of technological advancement and investor validation. Through persistent media engagement and carefully crafted press materials, we secured interest from numerous high-authority outlets. Each piece of coverage was the result of targeted pitching that echoed our core narrative points, ensuring message consistency across the board
