Tokenizing an asset isn’t the hard part. The hard part is bringing its entire “rulebook” on-chain.
I used to think RWAs were fairly simple: create a token representing a real-world asset. But with securities, the token is only the starting point. Who can own it, who can receive it, what data needs to be verified, and how settlement happens those are what shape the asset’s lifecycle.
This is where @dusk gets interesting. Dusk is built for regulated financial markets, where eligibility, transfer restrictions, and access control can become part of on-chain workflows. Privacy doesn’t mean hiding everything either: selective disclosure allows authorized parties to verify what they need without making the rest of the data public.
This made me rethink what “tokenization” really means. Tokenization can still leave custody, registry, or settlement off-chain, while native issuance can bring more of the issuance, transfer, servicing, and settlement lifecycle around the ledger itself. (DOCS)
So for RWAs, perhaps the better question isn’t: “How many assets can be tokenized?” It’s: “How much of their rulebook can actually run on-chain?”
