These assets, traditionally traded and managed through centralized financial systems, are now being explored for their potential to be tokenized and traded on decentralized blockchain networks.

A project that would have made a tourist destination out of the tiny, sleepy Hoback River basin community of Bondurant has been called off because of protective wildlife stipulations that abbreviated the construction season.
