On November 4th, Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of Blackrock, stated at the 2025 Hong Kong Fintech Week that financial technology innovation and cryptocurrencies have been receiving a lot of attention in recent years. Many people are actually afraid to keep all their money in the currency of their residence, and tokenization may be the most important part of the evolution of the global financial system. "If we can tokenize all ETFs (with a total size of $53 trillion) and store them in digital wallets, users can seamlessly use digital currencies, stablecoins, or any other currency in the wallet to purchase bonds or stocks without paying any fees. I believe this will be the future." Fink expects that in the future, more transactions will be carried out digitally, more financial assets will be digitized and stored on a single blockchain, enabling seamless conversion between assets such as cash, stocks, and bonds. "I believe that day will come soon." Fink stated that gold and Bitcoin have their own significance, "I think they are symbols of fear. If you lack financial security or personal security and are anxious, you will have them." Currently, there is approximately $4.1 trillion stored in digital wallets and it is growing rapidly.
