kaal:claim:3782216-010

Tokenization is meaningless unless the token is underwritten by someone who puts their reputation and ultimately their money on the line to attest that the token validly represents the asset.

Source quote, verbatim
Tokenization doesn't mean anything without something to back it up. A token's meaning must be attested by something substantial. It must be underwritten by someone who is putting their reputation—and ultimately their money—on the line to assert the validity of the to- ken.
