Beginning of 2025, our team our event attendance is synonym of 🇫🇷 - stay tuned! We wrapped up an incredible two days at NFT Paris 2025 last month ! It was amazing to attend this innovative event and one of the largest in Europe 🇪🇺. Held at the stunning 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒆 𝑯𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝒅𝒆 𝒍𝒂 𝑽𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆 🏢 , the gathering brought together over 20,000 attendees from across the #blockchain and #NFT ecosystem. To underscore: ✔️ Insightful discussions on the intersection of #DLT, financial instruments, and Luxembourg's progressive legal framework. ✔️ Exploring the latest developments in asset tokenization and DeFi at the RWA Paris summit ✔️ Connecting with innovators pushing the boundaries of generative AI and Web3 at XYZ Paris ✔️ Witnessing cutting-edge showcases that are revolutionizing industries like fashion 👗 , gaming 🕹️ , and digital art 🎨 . Particularly interesting The RWA Stage (strong Woud´s point), focused on discussions about #decentralized finance and the #tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). It definitively provided a platform for exploring innovative #assetmanagement solutions and the intersection of traditional finance (#TradFi) and decentralized finance (#DeFi). We had the opportunity to represent the Luxembourg ecosystem alongside some of the main players, mostly part of The Luxembourg House of Web3. Looking forward to applying these learnings to our work at Woud Law and continuing to support our clients in navigating the exciting world of Digital Ledger Technology (#DLT) and Assets Tokenisation.

MIPIM 2025 (Cannes)🇫🇷, the major international real estate 🏗️ and property trade from 11 to 14 March, is around the corner. #Tokenization will be trending in such a massive gathering. As a gentle reminder, it 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 (DLT). 🏛️ The tokenization of real estate is rapidly advancing, offering transformative potential for the industry. As of 2024, the global real estate tokenization market is valued at $3.8 billion and is projected to grow significantly, reaching $26 📈 billion by 2034. This growth reflects a shift in how real estate assets are managed and traded, driven by #blockchain technology and the benefits it brings to investors and property owners. ℹ️ One of the most significant advancements in tokenization is the concept of fractional ownership. The process of dividing high-value properties into smaller digital tokens, tokenization allows individuals to invest in real estate without needing substantial capital. This democratizes access to property markets, enabling retail investors to participate in opportunities that were previously reserved for institutional players or high-net-worth individuals. 💡 Fractional ownership also addresses one of real estate’s long-standing challenges: 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐲. Tokenized assets can be traded on blockchain platforms with relative ease, allowing investors to buy or sell their shares quickly without the delays and complexities of traditional transactions. ⚖️ Regulatory developments are playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of real estate tokenization. There are some jurisdictions that remain cautious, others, such as Singapore 🇸🇬 , are actively fostering innovation through initiatives like Project Guardian, which explores tokenization use cases. In the United States 🇺🇸 , the appointment of crypto-friendly regulators could pave the way for clearer legal frameworks governing #digitalassets. These advancements are crucial for building trust in tokenized real estate and encouraging wider adoption. I 👀 Institutional interest in tokenization is also growing. Banks 🏦 and asset managers are increasingly exploring its applications across different asset classes, including real estate. Successful pilot projects have demonstrated its potential to streamline processes such as treasury management while opening up new revenue streams through tokenized bonds, securities, and deposits. This institutional involvement is helping to validate tokenization as a viable solution for modernizing traditional financial systems.

The CFA Institute has recently released comprehensive research on #tokenization, highlighting its potential to reshape #capitalmarkets and asset ownership. As a gentle reminder, 𝐓𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 (#DLT) 📖 . Some outcomes: ✅ Tokenization can be applied to a wide range of #assets, including traditional investments like equities and bonds, as well as alternative investments such as private equity, commodities, real estate 🏗️ , and even art 🎨 . ✅ The value proposition of tokenization centers around three main areas: ✔️ Streamlined clearing and settlement ✔️ Improved transparency and compliance controls ✔️ Greater market access through fractional ownership ✅ The #CFAInstitute acknowledges both benefits and risks associated with tokenization. While it can bring many advantages, there are significant challenges related to #cybersecurity 🔐 , investor education, and regulatory uncertainty. ✅ The research explores various use cases and real-world scenarios to evaluate tokenization opportunities, including tokenized shares of small and medium-sized enterprises, art and collectibles, and private funds. ✅ The report emphasizes the need for regulators to develop an approach that encourages innovation while safeguarding investor interests and market integrity. ✅ Different regulatory approaches are emerging globally: ✔️ The United States 🇺🇸 appears to be moving towards a framework that fosters innovation and experimentation. ✔️ The European Union 🇪🇺 is seeking clear and consistent rules and standards for interoperability across member states. ✔️ The UK 🇬🇧 aims to bring digital asset regulation into existing securities laws.

BlackRock is preparing to launch a Bitcoin-linked Exchange Traded Product (ETP) in Europe 🇪🇺 . This new product is expected to be domiciled in Switzerland 🇨🇭, a country known for its favorable #regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. ℹ️ This initiative follows the resounding success of BlackRock's spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States 🇺🇸 , the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which has attracted billions of dollars in investments since its launch in January 2024. In just 10 months, the #IBIT has outperformed the performance of the 2,800 ETFs launched in the United States over the past decade, reaching a value of $57 billion, which represents 2.95% of the total Bitcoin supply. ℹ️ The European ETP market for cryptocurrency-linked products is already very competitive, with over 160 products available. Nevertheless, its total size of $17.3 billion remains modest compared to the US market. BlackRock's arrival could therefore significantly disrupt the #cryptocurrency investment landscape in Europe. ℹ️ #BlackRock could begin marketing this #BitcoinETP within a month. Although the company has not made an official public statement, employees have spoken about this project informally. 💡 This expansion in Europe demonstrates BlackRock's unwavering confidence in digital assets, despite recent Bitcoin price fluctuations. It also underscores the company's desire to strengthen its dominant position in the global cryptocurrency investment sector. Image credit: CryptoRank Harry Lars Ghillemyn Tristan Husson Loïck K.

The IMF's #Fintech Note on "𝑻𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒛𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑭𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒕 𝑰𝒏𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒔" published in last month provides a comprehensive analysis of the potential impacts of asset tokenization on #financialmarkets. This note introduces a taxonomy and conceptual framework centered on market inefficiencies to evaluate the consequences of this emerging trend. 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 #Tokenization, which involves recording and transferring assets on a widely shared and trusted digital ledger that can be programmed, is expected to have both positive and negative effects on financial market inefficiencies: ✔️ Potential benefits include reduced costs in asset issuance, servicing, and redemption due to fewer intermediaries involved. ✔️ Trading costs may decrease as tokenization lowers some counterparty risks and search frictions while offering flexibility in settlement. ✔️ Greater competition among brokers could lead to lower transaction fees for investors. 𝐑𝐢𝐬𝐤𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 The note also highlights several potential risks associated with tokenization: ✔️ Financial stability concerns may arise if tokenization leads to increased interconnectedness among institutions and encourages them to hold lower liquidity buffers or higher leverage. ✔️ New risks related to #smartcontracts and faulty code could emerge, potentially introducing unforeseen vulnerabilities. ✔️ As competition may increase among financial intermediaries, the provision of market infrastructure could become more concentrated due to network effects. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 It is suggested that tokenization could significantly impact various stages of an asset's lifecycle, addressing inefficiencies at each step. Nevertheless, it is acknowledged that many of the proposed benefits are yet to be proven and may involve trade-offs that could negate the advantages. 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 The note emphasizes the importance of adapting regulations to both harness the benefits and mitigate the adverse effects of tokenization. As the technology evolves, policymakers and regulators will need to closely monitor developments and adjust frameworks accordingly to ensure financial stability while fostering innovation. 💡 To sum up, while tokenization presents promising opportunities for improving financial market efficiency, it also introduces new challenges that require careful consideration and proactive regulatory approaches to manage potential risks effectively.
