What Is the Primary Difference between a Synthetic Asset and a Tokenized Stock?

A synthetic asset is a derivative created on-chain via collateralization and a debt mechanism, tracking the price of the underlying asset without requiring the issuer to hold the physical asset. A tokenized stock is a digital representation of an actual equity share, where the issuer typically holds the physical share in custody, making it a regulated security and an IOU.
