6,000 NFTs Provide Licensed Co-Ownership of Thoroughbreds that Race in Malaysia, Australia, and New Zealand

Introducing Hoofborn’s Blockchain Racing Model

Malaysia, 9 July 2025 — Hoofborn is putting horses on the blockchain — quite literally. The project’s first NFT collection makes fractional ownership of live, licensed racehorses available to the world through Solana, the high-performance, low-latency blockchain that’s built for real-world scale.

Real Equity in Southern Hemisphere Racehorses

The 6,000-unit portfolio owns legal equity in six racing thoroughbreds competing actively in the Southern Hemisphere circuit. Hoofborn warehouses ownership documents, racing information, and award payouts on-chain — bringing one of the world’s oldest high-end asset classes out of darkness, into transparency, tradability, and reach by fans.

Shattering the Access Barrier

Traditionally, thoroughbred ownership has required deep capital, regional location, and insider cliques. Even syndicates these days command a lot of administrative hassle and jurisdictional access.

Hoofborn resolves this with NFTs linked to provable, real-world stakes in equity. Ownership records, race results, and prize distributions are logged openly on Solana. Units can be re-sold via regulated exchanges — streamlining access while maintaining compliance.

Mint Details & Initial Stable

The public mint is timed for 18 July 2025, with 6,000 NFTs allocated equally between the below horses:

Ignis – Jo’s Legend (Malaysia)

Zephyr – Double You Owe (Malaysia)

Abyss – Dark Moon (Malaysia)

Lumen – Cosmic Prince (New Zealand)

Torrent – Forget Romance (Malaysia)

Tempest – Rush Fortyfive (Australia)

Each NFT relates to a fractional entitlement to a licensed horse with papers on file. Complete profiles, race videos, and media assets can be accessed at hoofborn.com/meethorse.

Ownership Rights & Real Utility

Each Hoofborn NFT is associated with an enforceable contract reflecting actual ownership in its corresponding horse. Documentation consists of:

Purchase contracts

Racing licenses

Insurance certificates

They are all publicly accessible for viewing. Daily care is maintained by licensed trainers in Victoria, Kuala Lumpur, and Waikato. Legal regulation is done by Hoofborn’s Auckland counsel in New Zealand.

Holders also benefit:

Access to a private owner portal with real-time training updates, vet reports, and race calendars

Invitations to paddock walks and licensed track visits, subject to jurisdictional restrictions

Community Governance & Future Roadmap

Post-mint, Hoofborn will roll out community governance tools. Token owners will be able to vote on stable growth, distribution of prize purse, and the purchase of new bloodstock.

Scheduled developments are:

NFT staking to demonstrate support or gain rewards

Performance analytics for sectional times, pedigree analysis, and trainer statistics

Expansion into yearling purchases through leading auction houses in Australasia

Vision from a Racing Industry Veteran

Hoofborn is the vision of John Chew, a 30+ year racing veteran with experience in Australia and New Zealand. With a background encompassing the care of Cup-distance horses through bloodstock advising, Chew’s unparalleled industry knowledge provides the foundation for Hoofborn.

“Owning a quality racehorse has been the preserve of a small group of people for too long,” Chew explains.

“By tokenizing legitimate equity stakes and publishing documentation on-chain, we’re giving everyday enthusiasts a seat at the table — without cutting corners on regulatory integrity.”

Strategic Partnerships and Oversight

Equine Operations: Managed by licensed trainers and vet teams across key race jurisdictions

Marketing & Community: Powered by DTC Group (dtcgroup.io), with experience in 300+ blockchain projects

Acquisitions: Discussions are underway with regional auction houses to expand Hoofborn’s bloodstock pipeline
