Tokenization is overrated, it's essentially the same idea as making coins backed by some physical good. To noobs it sounds cool, but if you think a bit about it, you realize that it's counterproductive because there will always be centralized gateways that kill any advantages of public blockchains.
Some people here mentioned gaming as an example, but as someone who understands well how games work, I can tell you that tokenization is not going to work, because games are inherently centralized, they have huge servers and centralized databases, and no one is even talking about making truly decentralized games, so even if a game gets public blockchain instead of centralized database (not gonna work without huge scalability), other factors would still keep the game centralized.
Absolutely. And my point is that it can help but only when helps to implement really new business models. For example to provide liquidity to real estate by tokenizing tangible assets. And my question actually was where such new models can be realised?
One more application which could be interesting for tokenization is personal information or social capital / personal brand / ratings etc. What do you think?
The gaming industry is popular and closely deals with digital that's why many people refer to it, but I don't see new decentralized models here. It's fine with centralized approaches.
