Martijn Siebrand of ABN AMRO made the case for using public blockchain for tokenization. He was talking as part of a Tokeny webinar, where Tokeny provides a solution that layers permissions and compliance for public blockchain tokens using smart contracts. ABN AMRO has run various trials on private and public blockchain networks, and chose the latter. It started with a project involving a secondary trade of the European Investment Bank's first digital bond on Ethereum. The second initiative was a €450,000 bond issuance for APOC Aviation using the Stellar blockchain. Late last year it worked with real estate firm Vestada on a €5 million green bond issuance on the Polygon blockchain. Meanwhile, Tokeny's Greg Cignarella described the appeal of public blockchains as a shared infrastructure.
