When it comes to investing in tokenized assets, there are five key layers working behind the scenes to make the system secure, fast, and easy to use. The base blockchain (like Ethereum or Solana) is where assets are stored: it affects how fast and affordable transactions are. The protocol layer sets the rules for how digital funds are created and traded. Compliance tools handle things like ID checks and fraud prevention, helping platforms stay legal and safe. Custody and transfer agents manage who holds your assets and how they’re reported, key for protecting your investments. Finally, the front-end access, like apps and dashboards, is what you actually see and use to manage your investments. When all five layers work well together, you get a smooth, secure, and trustworthy investing experience.
