One example is the potential for tokenization on public blockchains to provide a more globalized, automated, and efficient foundation, with stronger property rights, for global financial asset operations.

If I had a nickel for every claim about the "potential" of blockchain over the past almost two decades... I could almost buy one Bitcoin.

If blockchain has such potential why hasn't that turned into useful implementations or products? Surely enough time has passed to work out the details.
