A few years ago, there was a nice protocol called Mirror which allowed buying synthetic stocks. They had a system to incentize keepers to maintain the prices of the synthetic assets relatively closely to the anchored stocks, and it worked. Was a gem. Unfortunately, it was on Terra network, which blew up and took down Mirror and every other protocol on there.

I doubt that it will be same as paper or your shares registered under your name in companies books like DRS.
Its my the token is under your name and you have a claim to the company who created the tokens and hold the stocks however same as a broker these stocks are not under your name but under︀ the company/brokers name and you ONLY have a claim to these.

Yup these tokens are similar to buying "units" in an ETF. When you buy an ETF you don’t directly own the holdings in the ETF but you own units in︀ it equivalent to the value of your investment.
