Fractional Ownership Primitive

Definition

A fractional ownership primitive is a fundamental blockchain-based tool that enables the division of a single digital or real-world asset into multiple, smaller, independently tradable units. This mechanism allows multiple individuals to collectively own a portion of an asset, lowering the barrier to entry for high-value items. It enhances asset liquidity and accessibility within decentralized markets. These primitives are often implemented using non-fungible tokens and specialized smart contracts.
