Lily Liu on why tokenizing real-world assets is just the starting point:

"RWAs is an enormous category, depending on how you count and who you ask, it represents $100 trillion, $500 trillion, maybe even more in terms of kind of value of the asset class today...once you take an existing asset, put it on chain, what's next?

I think what's next is around what new financial markets can you actually create.

So those could be around compute markets, energy markets, those two are obviously very top of mind, given everything that's happening macroeconomically and in relation to the AI boom.

And I think another one that we're really passionate about...is the ability to bring capital markets access to the 180 countries in the world that don't have capital markets at any real scale today."
