Watched CZ speak at Davos today and one thing was clear - GLOBAL FINANCE IS SHIFTING ALREADY
A few signals that stood out to me:
➤ TOKENIZATION IS GOING MAINSTREAM
Governments are seriously looking at tokenized assets as a way to improve liquidity and market efficiency
This isn’t niche anymore
➤ CRYPTO IS QUIETLY POWERING PAYMENTS
Traditional systems still exist on the surface, but more of the backend is moving to crypto infrastructure
➤ AI NEEDS CRYPTO TO SETTLE
As AI agents scale, they need a native way to transact with each other
Crypto fits that role naturally
What really matters is SCALE AND RELIABILITY
Crypto platforms are already processing volumes on par with traditional finance and they keep running when markets get chaotic
On regulation, the takeaway was realistic:
Crypto is global, but rules have to respect local differences
One-size-fits-all doesn’t work
FINAL THOUGHT:
The debate isn’t about relevance anymore
It’s about integration
Finance is evolving in real time and crypto is part of the foundation now
