Tokenization
In essence, tokenization is the process of taking an existing function or asset and representing it as a token, which develops and releases on chain.
					Advantages
- Fractional asset ownership: Facilitated asset ownership
 - Asset liquefaction: Assets become more easily tradable
 - Less intermediaries: Blockchain and smart-contracts guarantee the security of digitized assets
 - Cost reduction: Through automation and digitization
 
Which assets can be tokenized?
- Money: “coins” [endogenous currency (the intrinsic cryptographic tokens of each protocol)], « tokens » [resulting from smart contracts].
 - Bonds: the blockchain opens up an automated management of registers, the payment of coupons or detachment of rights is possible with all the others advantages identified.
 - Equities: smart contracts facilitate the management of preferential subscription rights or the exercise of warrants, but also the management of shareholder registers, shareholder agreements, shareholders, pre-emptive rights or qualified majorities per share class and generally voting participation and access to financial information.
 - Real estate or non-fungible assets: benefit from a higher liquidity and divisibility.
