Such tokenization applies to various assets, from real estate and art to commodities and intellectual property.
Context ∞ The current state of blockchain asset tokenization involves significant regulatory scrutiny and technological advancements. Key discussions revolve around legal frameworks for digital securities, interoperability standards for tokenized assets, and the integration of traditional finance with blockchain platforms.
