Tokenized Assets Need More Than Settlement | They Need Trusted Identity

Tokenized assets can settle in seconds, but regulated institutions still need to determine whether the buyer, seller, company, wallet, or automated system is authorized to participate.

This video examines how Hedera and the XRP Ledger are approaching that missing identity layer through verifiable credentials, token-level KYC controls, account-bound permissions, and auditable trust. The deeper issue is not putting personal identity on a blockchain. It is deciding whose credentials are trusted and what financial actions those credentials permit.
