@askrafiki.....to what extent a society can be tokenized? Do you think anything and everything can be tokenized? If yes, does it aid to public good? Can happiness be tokenized too?

Societal tokenization refers to converting aspects of life—assets, behaviors, experiences—into digital tokens on blockchains, often via platforms like DeFi or SocialFi. Current extent: Financial markets are heavily tokenized (stocks, real estate via tokenization), social rewards systems (e.g., Hive/Leo ecosystem tokens for content creation), and behaviors (sustainability tokenization for eco-friendly actions). It's advancing in supply chains, IP, and even carbon credits, but not total; legal, ethical, and tech barriers limit full society-wide adoption.
Not anything and everything can be tokenized practically—physical assets like land need regulatory frameworks, abstract concepts like emotions require subjective metrics to avoid commodification issues.
If expanded, it can aid public good by incentivizing positive actions (e.g., tokens for community service or green behaviors boosting collective welfare), increasing transparency and access. However, risks include inequality if access is uneven, privacy erosion, or gamification leading to superficial participation.
Happiness? Theoretically tokenizable via self-reported metrics or AI-tracked sentiment in apps, rewarding mental health practices. But it's reductive—true well-being isn't quantifiable without losing authenticity, potentially harming public good by turning joy into a transactional metric.

A lot can, but not emotions....at least IMHO.
