TOKENIZATION
Tokenization is a process of tokenizing your digital assets, typically on blockchain. It's is much like monetization (for fiat money), but what you gain after tokenization is a token. However, you can exchange the token for fiat money in cryptocurrency or through token exchanges. In addition, tokens after tokenization can own exclusive features such as privacy, easy to move, bypassing traditional institutions, etc.
