Tokenization

The digital representation of real-world assets on the chain, analogous to digital share certificates. Tokenization greatly improves upon inefficient and ineffective real-world functions tied to the creation, issuance, and ongoing management of securities. It brings benefits like increased efficiency, better transparency, and automated compliance, and has the potential to transform the market by improving liquidity and facilitating the innovation of new product offerings.
