What is Tokenized silver?

Tokenized silver is a claim on allocated silver in vaults that trades as a blockchain token, tracking the spot price of the metal. It brings silver's industrial-price volatility to a rail that settles in seconds and divides fractionally.

Silver's tokenized market is smaller than gold's, which shows up as wider spreads on some venues; the peg mechanism - redemption arbitrage against vaulted metal - is the same.
