How Tokenization Is Transforming Intellectual Property Into Liquid Assets

Intellectual property is shifting from static legal filings to liquid digital assets.

Blockchain tokenization converts IP rights into tokens on public ledgers, enabling fractional ownership and immediate liquidity.

Unique patents utilize ERC-721 NFTs, while ERC-20 standards facilitate fractional shares. Smart contracts automate perpetual royalties and licensing without intermediary oversight.

Methodologies like metadata hashing and Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) bridge on-chain proof with traditional legal frameworks.

Data confirms tokenized IP sales are 35–60% faster than traditional auctions. Fractionalization lowers entry barriers to $50, yielding 15% higher returns for patent pools.

In Decentralized Science (DeSci), neuroscience patents are becoming tradable shares, allowing global micro-investors to fund neural discoveries collectively.
