Can Synthetic Assets Be Used to Gain Exposure to Markets That Are Traditionally Difficult to Access?

Yes, this is one of the primary advantages of synthetic assets. They allow anyone with access to the blockchain to gain financial exposure to a wide range of assets without needing to go through traditional financial intermediaries.

For example, a user in one country could create or trade a synthetic asset that tracks the price of a stock listed on a foreign exchange, a specific real estate index, or a commodity like gold. This democratizes access to global financial markets, allowing for greater portfolio diversification.
