Challenges In Tokenization Market

Challenges for the tokenization market remain in regulatory uncertainty and legal frameworks. Since the tokenization of real-world assets is made through the transformation of physical assets into digital tokens on blockchain platforms, a lack of clear regulation in many places makes the business and investor approach to the process difficult.

Scalability and interoperability in tokenization platforms are also other challenges. As other industries look to tokenize numerous assets, the requirement for platforms to efficiently process such large transactions across various blockchain ecosystems escalates.
