The co-founder of Omni Foundation, Austin King, believes that tokenization will reshape global finance, but its adoption will be gradual and follow an institution-led path. King notes that tokenization is not new, with over $200 billion in assets already tokenized on-chain, primarily through stablecoins. Other emerging assets for tokenization include treasury bills, which are valuable for both decentralized finance (DeFi) and traditional finance (TradFi) applications. King sees short-term corporate bonds as the next major asset class for tokenization, which could drive massive growth in DeFi. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink also believes in the potential of tokenization to redefine global markets, eliminating inefficiencies and enhancing security. Fink sees tokenization as a technological breakthrough that can lower costs and increase transparency in traditional finance.
