What Exactly is a Digital Token?
🙋🏽♀️ QUESTION: Hey Dave, “I’ve been hearing about ‘tokenization’, but what exactly is a digital token?”
A Digital Token can be described as a digital representation of VALUE and OWNERSHIP of an asset — digital or physical, fungible (interchangeable with other units of the same kind), or non-fungible (unique and cannot be exchanged with a like unit).
It can represent a security, currency, commodity, property, or hybrid of these characteristics.
Advantages of a digital token in a blockchain ecosystem:
✅ an asset is more secure
✅ immutable proof of ownership
✅ elimination of duplication and fraud
✅ transparency to participating parties
✅ transferability of an asset is much faster and requires less 3rd party involvement
✅ much easier to trade, manage and transfer property ownership
✅ much easier to fractionalize ownership
✅ an asset becomes more liquid
So then the process of digitizing an asset is called ‘Tokenization’ or ‘Tokenizing’. 💡
This conversation has many more layers than what I just shared, but this is a good start for you to understand Digital Token terminology, purpose, and benefits.
As always, do your own research before buying any cryptocurrency.
