Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What does a token actually represent? Why are banks suddenly talking about tokenisation? And how did we get from Bitcoin to putting real-world assets on blockchain?Crypto has spent years making simple ideas sound unnecessarily complicated.A Normal Person's Guide to RWA and Tokenisation starts from the beginning and explains how Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins, DeFi, NFTs and the major failures of the crypto industry eventually led financial institutions to focus on tokenisation and real-world assets.Written for businesspeople, investors and curious readers rather than blockchain engineers, the book explains the industry through straightforward language, practical examples and real-world stories.You'll learn: - Why Bitcoin mattered even before institutions cared about it- How Ethereum turned blockchain into programmable financial infrastructure- Why stablecoins became one of crypto's most useful products- What DeFi, NFTs and tokenisation actually changed- What the Terra/Luna and FTX collapses taught the market- Why banks, asset managers and regulators are now taking tokenisation seriously- What investors really own when they buy a tokenised asset- How RWA structures deal with ownership, cash flow, custody, valuation and regulation- Why AI agents and programmable money may become part of the next phase of digital financeThe central idea is simple: the technology matters, but the legal rights, underlying assets, cash flows and real-world businesses matter more.If you have ever heard terms such as RWA, tokenisation, stablecoins or DeFi and thought, "Can somebody just explain what this actually means?", this book was written for you.
