According to Cointelegraph, Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson said at CNBC's Delivering Alpha event that tokenization (converting asset ownership into digital tokens on the blockchain) is similar to "securitization on steroids," which means that tokenization has exceeded expectations. She believes that tokenization can benefit artists and athletes. For example, singer Rihanna issued a hit song in the form of a non-fungible token (NFT) in February this year, and holders can partially obtain royalty income.
