Debt tokenization is the process of representing traditional debt instruments as digital tokens on a blockchain. This transformation involves issuing tokens that represent ownership of a debt obligation, such as bonds, loans, or mortgages, allowing them to be traded and managed on a distributed ledger. Tokenization can fractionalize debt, making it more accessible to a wider range of investors and potentially increasing liquidity. It also offers enhanced transparency and automated settlement through smart contracts, streamlining traditional debt markets.
Context

Discussions focus on its potential to revolutionize capital markets by improving efficiency and reducing intermediation costs. Regulatory clarity and the establishment of legal frameworks for tokenized debt are key factors determining its widespread implementation and impact on global finance.
