#10 | RWA Tokenization: The 12 Legal Steps from a Building to a Blockchain Token

Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization is the bridge between trillion-dollar markets and the world of Web3. But behind the simple idea of turning a building into a tradable token lies a legal labyrinth. Skip one step, and instead of a liquid asset, you get a multi-million dollar lawsuit. In this episode of Expansion, we provide a clear 12-step roadmap for legally sound tokenization. We break down the entire process into three key stages: from due diligence and asset valuation to choosing a custodian, structuring an SPV, and implementing KYC/AML. This episode is a practical guide proving that RWA success is 90% legal diligence, not technology. To help you use this as a practical tool, we've turned these 12 steps into a detailed checklist: "The Complete Checklist for Legally Compliant Real-World Asset (RWA) Tokenization." It's available for free, but only in our Telegram channel.
