How capital flows through tokenization. From institutional allocators to productive yield.

Chains
4Where tokenized assets settle
Every major tokenized money market fund settled on Ethereum. Solana is growing fast. Twenty-two other chains are competing for what's left, and the ones without real liquidity or issuer commitments will have a hard time staying relevant.
Verification
1Who verifies that tokenized assets are real
Chainlink owns the data layer. S&P rated JTRSY higher than any tokenized fund. Verification is the boring part of the stack, which is exactly why it's the part that unlocks everything else.
Trading
4Where tokenized assets trade
Kraken, Coinbase, Robinhood all list tokenized stocks now. Distribution is still the bottleneck. Retail access might be what cracks it open. Nobody's solved it yet, but that's where the next winner comes from.
Yield
2Where tokenized assets become productive
Morpho, Aave, Spark, Pendle. This is where tokenized assets stop sitting in a wallet and start earning. A lot of the DeFi primitives needed to make this work at scale haven't been built yet. The yield layer is the reason institutions care about any of this.
