A token can represent a right, record it and transfer it across a programmable ledger. However, the right itself has to exist in law, not just in code.
- The collapse of tokenized equity instruments like PreStocks for Anthropic and OpenAI highlights a critical failure in legal grounding, not blockchain technology, leading to significant investor losses.
- The demand for tokenized private equity is legitimate due to traditional market restrictions, but responsible tokenization requires legal rights, not just digital representations.
- The future of tokenized equity hinges on compliance with existing regulations and the development of products with a solid legal foundation, as indicated by advancing legislation and regulatory statements.
