== Introduction ==
Blockchain is a technology that has the capacity of keeping immutable records that are accessible to millions of users and it has the ability to constantly update as property ownership changes hands. Although this technology is broadly used for currency transactions, it is also a very promising technology for the transaction of assets, such as securities, land titles, and art. The Ravencoin platform is well-suited for this purpose because the wallets and asset protocol offer a very easy tool for creating asset tokens that may represent securities, land titles, art, etc using real-world agreements.
== Tokenizing Securities ==An important property of Ravencoin is that it is optimized to carry securitiesas it will allow for messaging share holders, voting, and paying out dividens (implemented in later development phases in the first half of 2019). Bruce Fenton gave a number of talks and produced a miniseries about why securities should go on a blockchain.

== Tokenizing Land Titling == Blockchain is a technology that has the capacity of keeping immutable records that are accessible to millions of users and it has the ability to constantly update as property ownership changes hands. Although this technology is broadly used for currency transactions, it is also a very promising technology for other types of transactions such as the transaction of land titles. Using blockchain for land titling provides a low-cost land administration system, which is very appealing to developing economies that have no systems in place for clear property ownership.
Ravencoin assets are well-suited for the purpose of land titling. The first project that started on Ravencoin for this purpose is [https://ravenland.org/ Ravenland]. Ravenland is ran and owned by its community and functions as an experimental agent for buying and selling land and estate.
== Tokenizing Art ==ExampleJust like land titling, tokenizing property ownership of art is also a possibility on Ravencoin. The first tokenized Art object on Ravencoin was offered by [https: //loftvr.io/ LoftVR]. The art piece was a [https://loftvr.io/tron-countach/ LoftVR Selling Art on Ravencoinlimited edition 40" x 30" Canvas Print of a TRON COUNTACH] ...
== Decentralized Web InterPlanetary File Transportation Service (IPFS) ===== Adding files to Ravencoin tokens ===Ravencoin also supports IPFS. IPFS allows decentralized storage of files and each file is accessible through a hash code. By adding this hash code to a Ravencoin asset, you are able to connect any kind of file to a token. To attach a file you can upload it to [https://globalupload.io/ Globalupload.io] and add the generated hash to an asset in your Ravencoin wallet.
