Ownership

Valuable things can be turned into digital tokens and recorded on secure digital ledgers, known as blockchains. 

Every deal is logged, creating an unchangeable history of who bought what and when it changed hands. That builds trust and makes it easy to see who owns what. 

Here’s how that’s already working in the real world:

• Sports and concert tickets can’t be faked. 

• Artists create digital certificates, known as tokens – to show who owns their artwork. 

• Real estate is split into shares, making it easier to own part of a rental property or a slice of an investment property.
