Tokenization - Page 18
Tokenization is the process of converting rights to an asset into a digital token on a blockchain. These tokens can represent various assets, including cryptocurrencies, real estate, equities, or commodities. The process involves issuing tokens that correspond to ownership or access rights, which can then be transferred or traded on blockchain networks. In crypto, tokenization enables fractional ownership, increased liquidity, and more efficient asset management. It also enhances transparency by recording transactions on an immutable ledger. Tokenization may face regulatory challenges and requires a secure infrastructure to ensure proper asset representation and compliance.
