Precious metals—silver, gold, platinum, palladium—represent a massive market opportunity that's largely been ignored by crypto. The tokenization sector? Nearly non-existent. You've got maybe 30-100k projects floating around, most with zero momentum or community backing worth mentioning. The real shift happening now: traders are ditching traditional naming conventions and gravitating toward 'shiny rocks' as the go-to term. It's spreading fast across communities. The naming evolution reflects something bigger—people actually want a simpler, more approachable way to interact with these asset classes onchain. The infrastructure's there. The appetite's there. What's missing is a proper, scalable tokenization framework that captures that demand.
