Tokinvest, the leading scalable marketplace connecting real-world asset issuers with investors worldwide, today announces the formation of its new advisory board. This panel of industry titans will play a pivotal role in guiding Tokinvest’s strategic vision and enhancing its position at the forefront of the real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation industry.
