Tokenization of off-chain things trust-minimizes only transfer of title. Short of entangled proplets

it doesn't do anything about actual control of the actual off-chain assets; it doesn't even guarantee respect for the title. h/t @eric_lombrozo's tanks.https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/992023735141101569 …

Even this seems a stretch. I have no idea how a decentralized database somehow makes compliance easier than a simple query of a mysql database.
It makes for more reliable evidence in court, and if done on a public blockchain controls the burden of lawsuit and changes the means of enforcement.

Hmm, I hear you but seems like a marginal improvement. Tampering with title databases is already illegal, that seems like a pretty strong incentive to not do so (and strong reasoning to assume no tampering by default).

For existing securities quite true. The main thing trust-minimized tokens have given (to scammers or to a new generation of global entrepreneurs, take your pick) is simply the ability to cut the Gordian knot and route around the whole very bureaucratic and restrictive mess.
