Tokenized collateral is tested at the margin deadline

Recognizing an asset, proving control, delivering it and reconciling the result are separate requirements.

The tokenized-collateral comparison focuses on margin rather than issuance. Recognizing the asset, proving control, delivering it before the deadline and allowing each operator to reconcile the result form one dependent sequence; a failure at any step can defeat the transaction. Cross-border use adds identity and trade documentation that must remain linked to value as it moves. Recovery therefore needs the accepted state and available records, not merely a fast transfer interface.
