The financial sector is undergoing a fundamental transformation due to innovative technologies. Distributed ledger technology (DLT) and blockchain are playing a key role in the decentralisation of financial services. Previous approaches are being redefined thanks to the tokenisation of assets and the issuance of crypto assets. Emerging concepts such as security token offerings (STOs) or crypto securities and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), but also decentralised autonomous organisations (DAO) and nearly decentralised finance (DeFi) are rapidly gaining importance and challenging the traditional financial market.
