This Week in Fintech(@twifintech):Brazil just “tokenized” ten cows to help secure a roughly $20,000 loan. But the interesting part may be that there is no tradable token at all. @DrewBailer suggests the real innovation is verified data that can prove an asset exists, where it is, and whether it has already been pledged elsewhere. That could turn previously hard-to-finance assets into usable collateral.
