Abstract: Features described herein generally relate to systems and methods for generating and managing tokens for authenticated assets. In some aspects, generating a token is performed according to one or more rules and includes generating metadata that links the token to a representation of an asset. In some other aspects, tracking token access includes monitoring a blockchain for token access events and generating a token based on a modified historian and received feedback. In other aspects, validating a token for an authenticated asset includes matching representations of the authenticated asset.
