Tokenization of real-world assets is gaining serious momentum — but one critical piece is still missing: standards. Nethermind’s recent report breaks this down brilliantly: 1. There’s no unified standard across tokenized assets — different platforms, different rules. That’s a nightmare for interoperability and scalability. 2. Without clear standards for things like compliance, ownership, and settlement, large players will stay on the sidelines. 3. Just like ERC-20 created a boom for fungible tokens, RWAs need open, composable, and widely adopted frameworks. 4. Standards like CMTAT and ERC-3643 (for permissioned tokens), as well as collaborations across Ethereum, Hyperledger and TradFi are paving the way. But more alignment is needed. My take? Standards are the rails for institutional scale. Without them, tokenization remains a fragmented experiment. If you’re building in RWA, pay close attention to the protocols and standards emerging now — they’ll define the future
