In this book, leading practitioners and academics provide comprehensive coverage and novel insights into blockchains and the token economy. Real world case studies from a wide range of industries provide practical examples of blockchain-based tokens for real estate, logistics, insurance, recruitment, collectibles, reservations, metaverses, and more.  The cases show how tokens provide an  innovative way to create and transfer value without relying on traditional intermediaries.  Readers will better understand the business and social benefits of tokenization, but also its challenges.
