BlackRock aware that RWAs are ‘multitrillion-dollar opportunity’ — Kinto co-founder

Kinto co-founder Victor Sanchez says real-world asset tokenization could be the future of finance and explains why BlackRock has decided to get in on the action.

The crypto markets’ focus on real-world asset (RWA) tokenization has gained momentum throughout 2024, and multiple entities within the traditional finance (TradFi) industry are also integrating blockchain and asset tokenization into their portfolios.
