On-chain securities represent traditional financial assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds, that have been digitized and recorded on a blockchain. These digital tokens grant ownership rights or claims to underlying assets, leveraging blockchain technology for improved transparency, efficiency, and fractionalization. The recording on a distributed ledger enables automated settlement, simplified transfer, and reduced intermediation. Their issuance and transfer are governed by smart contracts and subject to regulatory oversight.
Context
The tokenization of real-world assets into on-chain securities is a significant trend, aiming to modernize capital markets and broaden access to investment opportunities. Discussions frequently address the legal and regulatory clarity required for widespread adoption, including questions of ownership, custody, and investor protection in a decentralized environment. Future developments will likely involve the creation of specialized compliant blockchain platforms and interoperability solutions for these digital instruments.
