NFTs, The Death of Mortgages - NFTs enable partial purchasing of property equity and the attendant rights. Rights previously bundled, such as boundary, air, view, mineral and water rights can be parcelled off as individual rights and traded as individual titles and used in daily commerce. This allows the most attractive rights to some users to be acquired individually without the need to acquire all the property rights. NFTs open up a new world for rights not previously seen.
Alternative assets are increasingly popular for investors - the amount of capital that is being allocated to alternative investments has been expanding and is predicted to grow further as we see digital assets being created. Traditional assets such as equities, bonds, commodities and even currencies and alternative assets are increasingly being made available via a digital wrapper to be traded on new digital exchanges. This is going to assist in making alternative assets more accessible for a new cohort of investors who have, traditionally, not been able to access them.
How DeFi will enable participants to reimagine financial markets? - In recent years, the emergence of Fintechs has sought to democratise financial services and give some level of control back to the user. Through elements such as self-custody, DeFi will take this one step further. Giving people the power to digitise their assets and move them freely across the DeFi ecosystem (combining them with other assets to form novel trading pairs) will enable a new financial market to be reimagined along customer-centric lines. However, this will only be made possible once we see DeFi become regulated, allowing certain participants and collateral to move into the ecosystem, for the first time.
