Saison Capital is excited to partner up with BRI Ventures, D3 Labs and Tiger Research Inc. to publish the first-ever asset tokenization report in Indonesia The report forecasts significant growth in Indonesia’s tokenized asset sector, reaching US$88B in 2030, and that commodities could become the leading tokenized asset class for Southeast Asia’s largest economy. Indonesia is the world’s largest exporter of commodities including palm oil and coal and this, combined with growing technology penetration and the distinctive benefits of tokenization on the blockchain, make it an ideal category to originate tokens.
