The biggest constraint in SME tokenization may not be tokenization at all.
Dusk’s SME financing thesis makes an important distinction: fractional ownership can improve accessibility, but accessibility ≠ investability.
Breaking an asset into smaller tokens does not automatically create:
• investor demand
• legal certainty
• secondary-market liquidity
• reliable settlement
For SME securities, the harder problem is the full ownership lifecycle: issuance, eligibility, records, transfers, dividends, voting and settlement all need to work together.
That is where tokenization becomes more than “put it on-chain.”
Technology can reduce friction. It cannot manufacture a market.
So the real test for RWA tokenization is not how easily an asset can be divided.
It is whether enough eligible investors actually want to buy, hold and trade those units.
Maybe demand—not fractionalization—is the bottleneck Dusk is really pointing us toward.
