Centrifuge
Centrifuge is a platform offering an infrastructure and ecosystem for tokenizing, managing and investing in a wide range of real assets.
Centrifuge tokenizes real assets by creating digital versions of them and splitting them into tokens representing ownership stakes. Pools bring together asset issuers and investors, allowing issuers to fund real assets such as consumer finance, real estate, or U.S. Treasuries by leveraging investments from crypto investors and DeFi protocols. The asset initiator acts as an intermediary, providing real assets to the issuer in exchange for funding. NFTs are tokenized versions of real assets that can be locked as collateral to obtain funding.
Benefits for investors
Before investing, investors can scrutinize information about the businesses available on the platform. This scrutiny allows investors to make informed decisions by assessing the quality and potential of the businesses that are seeking funding.
In this way, the platform can be used to finance the activities of enterprises.
In the United States, among the real assets subject to tokenization, in addition to real estate and the possibility of tokenization of metals, it is also possible to tokenize financial instruments such as bills of exchange, liabilities, as well as tokenization in order to create enterprise capital.

Zeniq
Zeniq Technologies is an innovative blockchain-based platform designed to enable fast and secure trading of a wide range of assets, including digital assets.

Securitize
Securitize is a platform that offers capital raising services for businesses. It has developed a platform that allows companies to issue shares in the form of digital tokens registered on the blockchain.
In 2023, shares of Spanish real estate fund Mancipi Partners were tokenized on the Securitize platform.
The platform has issued security tokens representing digital assets linked to shares of Spanish real estate fund Mancipi Partners.
Securitize made its first tokenized share issue in 2023 as part of the European Union's pilot regime for distributed ledger technology.
Securitize tokenized a stake in the Healthcare Strategic Growth Fund II in partnership with asset manager KKR in 2022.
In fact, tokenized assets become more liquid as they can be traded on secondary markets. Hence, it is the tokenization of securities that are part of a firm's capital. The platform allows tokenization of real assets, which subsequently makes it possible to attract additional funds into the capital of the company, increase its investment attractiveness and generate the highest profit.
Despite the adoption of regulatory documents, such as the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), the number of platforms and projects in the field of tokenization in the European Union remains limited. The market as a whole is cautious about this technology, as the question of regulation at the level of EU legislation and individual countries is very complex.
Securities tokenization is developing relatively successfully in the EU, while the tokenization of cultural objects faces significant obstacles. This factor differs from the situation in the UAE, where the tokenization of cultural objects has become more widespread.
Not all EU countries have implemented the EU Pilot Regime Regulation and the EU regulatory "sandbox," applying local legislation, which complicates the possibility of issuing tokens.

The advantages of tokenizing assets include increased liquidity, accessibility, and transparency. Tokenization allows assets to be divided into smaller parts, making them accessible to a broader range of investors. This is particularly beneficial for large and expensive assets such as real estate or artwork. Increased liquidity means that investors can more easily and quickly sell their shares, reducing risk and making investments more attractive.
Additionally, tokenization ensures transparency, as all transactions are recorded on the blockchain, reducing the risk of fraud and increasing trust among market participants.
Tokenization offers an alternative path for raising investments, especially for startups and small companies. Traditional methods of raising capital, such as IPOs or venture funding, often require significant time and money, as well as strict regulatory compliance. In contrast, tokenization provides a more flexible and faster way to raise funds. Companies can issue tokens that represent shares in their assets or rights and sell them directly to investors through tokenization platforms. This allows them to attract capital not only from traditional sources but also from a broader international investor base, including both retail and institutional investors, significantly expanding growth and development opportunities.
