Stopped by @TBPN and was asked about the state of crypto. The warm-up act is over. Genius is done. Clarity is hopefully coming soon. I’ve got my sights set on the $270 trillion global securities market. Tokenization is the next act.
Talking @SpaceX IPO with @jordihays and was asked about what’s going to happen on Friday. Watch the clip for my response but spoiler alert…it’s going to make the Alibaba IPO look like child’s play.
Talked tokenization with @carlquintanilla, @LesliePicker, and @davidfaber. Issuer-native tokens are the future. Born on-chain, not wrapped after the fact. Stop with the synthetic token madness. Watch the clip.
On @SquawkStreet this morning, they asked my thoughts on the current regulatory regime and I answered plainly: with @ChairmanSelig and @SECPaulSAtkins, innovation is finally being allowed to flourish. I have not seen anything like it before.
Asked about the CLARITY Act on @SquawkStreet today. Leaders like @Sen_Alsobrooks and @RubenGallego are the reason it's moving but the crypto crowd needs to get in line and stop the whining and push it right now.
Crypto is helpful to under-served communities and now is the time to get this done.
Bullish CEO @thomasfarley says the crypto sector will see parabolic growth from the tokenization of the global securities industry.
"The crypto market cap is a couple trillion. Last time I checked, the global securities market is $270T."
"Money market funds and US equities have already moved onto blockchain rails. All the industry bigwigs, from the NYSE, to DTCC, or many of the electronic brokers, they're all tokenizing stocks."
Why is it when you inquire about buying a car from a dealership, 3 managers, 8 sales associates, 5 specialists and 1 scheduling coordinator all contact you separately?
To everyone who joined @CoinDesk in Miami, and everyone who should have, here is a special announcement from @Bullish CEO @ThomasFarley:
🌴 Consensus Miami • May 4–6, 2027
🗽 Consensus New York City • May 9–11, 2028
Wall Street is taking over cryptoland, and being met with little resistance. In Miami Beach, one of the crypto industry’s biggest conferences had a corporate sheen this year. https://t.co/kuwUZJZDR8
