Fractional ownership is the future of much of finance because the Internet has shown the world something new. In the past, before the digital revolution, we would sift through book. Reliance, or trust, would need to be places on experts to maximize time.

The Internet made possible the specific search of words and targeted information. Now we can be certain of what is and is not contained in a resource. While it will require AI to determine the more important breadth of content, this searchable info is a great advance for all of society.

Blockchain is data management. The Internet was information (data) dissemination. ::Cough:: Imagine blockchain with out dissemination (distribution). Fractional ownership and crowd funding can be compared to the search-ability of information.

While most people will have no use for actually using their 'stock-like' PoA tokens for anything but value, those that do will drive the Information Age toward the Web of Value (Internet [3.0 ]). These value users will make blockchain the new gold standard.

Consider my usage of the searchable Internet of info for the term "fractional ownership". Besides myself, it was only mentioned by 2.21.19 by @definethedollar in referring to solar wind farms. Well, fractional ownership of these farms could be a way to by solar panels and instead of sitting in a stockroom, be put to use.

Another way to use blockchain's fractional ownership is to purchase areas of a mall or real estate development. Whether physical locations are specifically tagged or a certain percentage to use an area with ownership functions, tokenization represents a more efficient, practical, and useful way to treat illiquid assets.

Neat topic @creativeblue. Those with money and power realize what is going as is demonstrated by their private blockchains. One can only wonder how good an investment private effort will turn out once the world's blockchain chain replaces Internet Protocols. These private blockchain may be the tech goliaths of the future or represent the demise of long establish companies.
