2024 was the year when the term “tokenization” became common and 2025 is the year we are starting to see the first serious tokenized projects and platforms.
With the CEO of BlackRock (Nasdaq: BLK), Larry Fink, predicting the tokenization of everything and calling Bitcoin and Ethereum “Stepping Stones” to a token world last year, and with Robinhood (Nasdaq: Hood) and others announcing trade in token in recent months, token Champion.
However, unlike the ICOs, web 3 games, NFT and other follies in the past, RWA tokenization has largely jumped the media threshing cycle and went directly to the utility phase. There were no art tokens sold for millions only to crash on money later, and companies like Robinhood have already deployed token solutions on regulated markets.
It looks good, but it happens on Robinhood’s blockchain, so it controls the game and the rules.
With all this, could the tokenized assets finally be what gives blockchain technology its dominant use case essential? They certainly have the potential, but the way tokenization occurs a lot. If we do not want more business control of the industry and the world as a whole, the tokenization must occur on an evolutionary public blockchain that no entity can control.
Tokenize your business on my channel, Bro
I said it several times, and I will say it as long as the problem persists: building on hundreds or thousands of private blockchains is a crazy race. Not only does it leave us the same problem as Bitcoin was supposed to solve, but conflicting contradictory books, but it fragments liquidity, kills the interoperability of applications and gives the tokens control to the entity which controls the chain.
Let us examine the recent announcement of Robinhood, for example: the actions tokens will be initially issued on Arbitrum, but they will end up migrating to their own layer solution two. It seems great in theory, but it means that Robinhood has too much control over the tokens and what can be done with them. For example, at least at the start, these assets will not be negotiable on the secondary markets, so Robinhood controls the entire game.
It is not the world that Bitcoin and Blockchain technology was supposed to inaugurate. He was supposed to be decentralized, which means that no entity could control anything. In this world, Robinhood emitted tokens in stock on a public blockchain and would let the buyer move them between the wallets, sell them to someone else on another platform, or even peer-to-peer if he wishes. The buyer would thus have custody of his credit and could do what he wishes with his property within the limits of the law.
Wander to control an application interface is reasonable: customers use it, make purchases and the company generates costs of loyal users, but wishing to control the rails on which the chips executed are dangerous. It is no different from the way things work in the world of web 2.0 today; If Meta (Nasdaq: Meta) deletes your account, you left, and if Amazon (Nasdaq: Amzn) Snsets Kindle or Prime, all your digital media go with it.
Although private channels can always display immutable recordings and therefore be checked by anyone with access, they are always under the control of a private entity and validators who execute it for the interests of this entity. Thus, in a world tokenized on private blockchains, we have nothing more than dressings for old systems; This technology was supposed to help us escape.
A better solution: emit everything on a distributable and distributed blockchain
When Satoshi Nakamoto released Bitcoin, he told early developer Mike Hearn that he never struck a ceiling on a scale. Satoshi has also published its electronic cash system with many opcodes and a native script system to make the types of complex transactions possible. Although he did not talk about token in detail, he hinted that Bitcoin could be used as more than money.
This means that even if Satoshi did not invent tokenization, he laid the foundations. While Ethereum, which has a well-established token protocol in ERC-20, did not evolve after a decade of twists and turns, the Bitcoin blockchain, which follows the original vision of Satoshi the most, has put in massively and has several token protocols that anyone can use today.
For those who don’t know, I’m talking about the BSV blockchain. While BTC and BCH went to different directions, Bsvers decided to test if Satoshi Nakamoto was right by removing the block size limit, in restaurants most original Bitcoin opcodes and adding value by releasing tokens protocols, easy -to -use development tools, etc.
Given that the tests of its Teranode upgrade showed how BSV is capable of a million transactions per second on a sustained basis and that the costs are fractions of a hundred, this means that BSV could be the distributed database which acts as the backbone of a tokénized world.
There are many other actors involved in the BSV ecosystem, including independent developers such as Project Babbage, minors and transaction processors such as Gorillapool, and decentralized protocols like 1SAT Ordinals, that independent developers like Luke Rohenaz and David Case helped to implement BSV.
In short, although there are rules of access to the network (NAR) that minors must respect, as does not deliberately attack the network and the value built on IT, BSV is today a decentralized network with several independent minors, dozens of independent developers and many promising applications.
Could it be a much better database for tokens than a chain controlled by Robinhood, another of Blackrock, and perhaps another by your favorite world banking cartel?
Bitcoin’s promise is still alive, and tokens can live on it
I entered bitcoin and blockchain because I wanted to take power from the hands of great financial players and in a distributed system that no one could play. Unfortunately, BTC has been stripped of all the abilities of tokenization and creation of applications, Ethereum still does not adapt, and most of the other blockchains are vaporware and ghost chains.
This leaves an option: the original protocol of Satoshi, capable of millions of transactions per second, controlled by any entity, and that anyone can join and the mines, provided that they follow the basic rules to keep things right. Endless tokens representing everything, gold coins with fractionalized art in articles at stake can exist on BSV today, and once these tokens are in your hands, no one can take or control them without your private keys.
This is the world I believe in, and that I know that Bitcoin is able to open the way. If you feel the same thing, put pressure on your representatives, tell all those who share a common interest in the blockchain and you lend your time, your energy and your resources to guarantee the tokenized world that we enter is not controlled by the same inherited actors as the old financial world was.
Fortunately, this time, there is a technological solution that works, and with better truly decentralized alternatives offering access to tokenized assets, it can and win the game long.
Build on BSV, emit tokens on it and ensure that the world our children inherit are decentralized, free and really peer-to-peer!
Watch: it’s time for companies to turn to public blockchain solutions
