Tokenizer.Estate has published guide showing how tokenization touched public markets this year. The article maps where adoption is fastest, from tokenized treasuries to money market funds, and sets out practical rules on custody, disclosures, and payouts for new offerings.
Large firms are moving too. On BlackRock’s Q3 call, MarketsMedia outlined plans to explore tokenizing long-term products like iShares. In Asia, Reuters has reported partnership between DBS, Franklin Templeton, and Ripple to trade tokenized money market funds. The Financial Times has noted surge of investors into tokenized Treasuries in 2025.
“There are commercial opportunities in using tokenization to bridge traditional markets and digital assets,” said Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, during the firm’s Q3 2025 call.
Tokenization means turning financial assets into digital shares on a blockchain. It can speed settlement, lower minimum tickets, and enable round-the-clock transfers. For regulated assets like bonds or funds, issuers still need clear documents, AML/KYC, and a solid custody plan, just as in traditional markets.
The guide keeps language simple and practical. It explains how to scope the asset, choose the legal path, set payout logic, and plan distribution by investor geography. It also reminds teams to budget for audits and to communicate risks in plain terms so buyers understand how cash flows and redemptions work.
