Four questions that decide whether a tokenization project works, answered from the published record rather than from the pitch deck.

These are not introductions to blockchain. Each one answers a question that costs money to get wrong, using the same rule as the rest of the site: a figure without its source and date is not a fact.

01 / CLASSIFY

MiCA does not cover security tokens

If the token is a transferable security or a fund unit, MiCA is not your regime — MiFID II, the Prospectus Regulation and AIFMD are. The most expensive misconception in this market, and the three costs that follow from it.

02 / PRICE

What a token legal opinion costs

Three different products are sold under one name, at prices two orders of magnitude apart. Every published figure we could source and date, and what the public record still does not contain.

03 / READ

Why costs disagree by 10,000×

An analysis of 130 published figures: the five ways sources talk past each other, one vendor contradicting itself, and how to make quotes comparable.

04 / LIMITS

What tokenization does not fix

Transferability is not liquidity, a token is usually not title, and securities law does not soften. The limits practitioners know and the marketing omits — plus what genuinely improves.
