全球货币变局研究九：代币化：货币、金融的历史性变革

Group 1: Overview of Currency and Financial System Changes - The development of stablecoins and RWA (Real World Assets) may create a parallel, decentralized currency and financial system alongside the current centralized system, potentially transforming the global monetary landscape significantly[5][20]. - The evolution of stablecoins and RWA could lead to changes comparable to the impact of AI on the global economy, presenting both opportunities and challenges for industries, institutions, and regulators[5][20]. Group 2: Nature of Currency - Currency fundamentally serves as a "social consensus" accounting tool, where its value is derived from collective trust rather than intrinsic worth[8][11]. - The scarcity of currency is crucial for maintaining its value and ensuring public trust; excessive issuance can lead to inflation and diminish the currency's acceptance[10][11]. Group 3: Stablecoins as a Parallel Currency System - Stablecoins emerged as a response to declining trust in centralized accounting systems, providing a decentralized ledger based on blockchain technology[13][14]. - As of 2014, stablecoins backed by fiat currencies, particularly the US dollar, accounted for 99% of the stablecoin market, indicating a strong preference for stability in value[14][15]. Group 4: RWA and Financial Market Innovations - RWA represents a method of tokenizing real-world assets on the blockchain, creating a decentralized market for these assets, similar to asset-backed securities (ABS) but utilizing blockchain for transactions[20][21]. - The growth of RWA could lead to a new financial ecosystem where investors can manage wealth directly on the blockchain without reverting to centralized financial systems[21][22].
