Who verifies that tokenized assets are real

The assets the stack exists to serve

$31B+ across BUIDL, USYC, JTRSY, PAXG, and accelerating. These are the actual assets that connect the stack. Issuers on one end, yield protocols on the other, chains underneath.

Where tokenized assets become productive
