Blockchain and cryptocurrency technology brings major opportunities to offer new services and change business models. As blockchain evolves, the implementation of blockchain solutions will face many challenges with legal ramifications for businesses that execute these solutions for their suppliers and for their customers. Blockchain also provides the opportunity to develop a new class of assets, such assets, which can include digital representations of existing assets, such as stock or real estate maybe we could say real estate deed, as well as new forms of digital property, such as Cryptokitties we could replace the “NBA top Shop”. Tokens can provide “liquidity’ to assets such as such as real estate buildings and patents.
