In discussions about tokenization, there exists a crucial but often overlooked distinction: one is a digital upgrade of equity representation within the existing financial infrastructure, and the other fundamentally changes the way asset ownership is registered and transferred. These two paths are often collectively referred to as 'tokenization,' but their underlying logic, technical implementation, and ultimate goals are radically different.
The DTCC-driven mapping essentially represents security entitlements on the blockchain. It does not change the existing multi-layer intermediary holding structure but enhances the efficiency of record-keeping and settlement within the system through blockchain technology. Stocks are still registered under Cede & Co., and what investors hold is not the assets themselves but a claim against the broker. The advantage of this model lies in its compatibility with the existing regulatory framework, retaining traditional market efficiencies such as net settlement and liquidity concentration, while enabling 7×24-hour entitlement circulation and lower operational costs. However, it cannot achieve true direct control of assets, nor can it facilitate free combinations or cross-ecosystem applications outside of a permissioned environment. In contrast, the direct ownership model tokenizes the stocks themselves. Ownership is directly recorded in the issuer's shareholder register, and the transfer of tokens means real-time changes in ownership. This model eliminates intermediate layers, supports self-custody, peer-to-peer trading, and on-chain programmability, such as using stocks as collateral in DeFi protocols. It breaks the time and geographical constraints of traditional finance but also faces challenges such as liquidity fragmentation, risk management restructuring, and regulatory adaptation.
