The hard part of tokenization may not be putting the asset on-chain. It may be keeping everything that happens after issuance connected.
That’s what made me look more closely at @Dusk ’s native issuance approach.
Tokenization can create an onchain representation of an existing security. Native issuance goes further: when the institution, venue and regulatory setup allow it, more of the asset’s lifecycle can operate around the same infrastructure.
Think beyond the token itself:
issuance → ownership → transfers → corporate actions → settlement
The obvious assumption is that moving more of this lifecycle onchain should reduce operational complexity.
But there’s another possibility: does the complexity actually disappear, or does it simply move into compliance logic and reconciliation between onchain and offchain requirements?
That’s the part I find most interesting.
Native issuance isn’t really tested by whether an asset can exist onchain. It’s tested by how much of its lifecycle can stay coherent there without creating a new reconciliation problem around everything that still has to happen offchain.
I want to watch that boundary closely as regulated assets move from tokenization toward actually operating onchain.
