‘Advocates say tokenization is the next leap forward in crypto and can help break down walls that have advantaged the wealthy and make trading cheaper, more transparent and more accessible for everyday investors. But critics say tokenization threatens to undermine a century’s worth of securities law and investor protections that have made the U.S. financial system the envy of the world’.
The problem with securities laws is that they are complex, and even defining what is a security is a hotly debated question, esp in crypto. I believe back in 2021, Binance had to pull back their offerings tokenized securities bc of german regulators, so its a very opaque environment.
