Main Idea
The article discusses how 'unsexy' real-world assets (RWAs) like domain names and intellectual property (IP) are gaining traction through tokenization, offering practical utility and disrupting traditional ownership models.
Key Points
1. Non-financial tokenized assets grew 240% year-over-year in 2024, outpacing traditional RWA categories.
2. The domain industry, particularly '.ai' domains, has seen significant growth, with Anguilla benefiting from registration fees accounting for 20-25% of its revenue.
3. Blockchain-based IP registries like Oasys reduce fraud in traditional IP markets by providing immutable provenance records.
4. Tokenization enables fractional ownership, secondary markets, and domain-backed lending, unlocking liquidity in illiquid assets.
5. Carbon credits integrated with DeFi protocols saw a 400% growth in 2024, driven by institutional ESG demand and verified CO2 reduction metrics.
Description
Everyone's watching Bitcoin hit record highs, but the real action in tokenization is happening somewhere most aren't looking: Domain names, IP Patents and Carbon Credits.
