Bitwise says Finance 2.0 is arriving from the outside in, as tokenization, stablecoins and crypto ETFs start to rewire how savings and capital move around the world.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Bitwise, the future of the global money system is being openly challenged by some of the largest players in digital assets, who argue that blockchains and tokenization are now structurally better than the legacy pipes of finance. Bitwise president Teddy Fusaro said blockchain technology is \u201c10 times superior\u201d to existing financial infrastructure, even if its integration into mainstream markets remains in an early phase. His comments echo Tether adviser Gabor Gurbacs, who told Bitfinex Talks that his team is working with \u201clarge governments\u201d and financial institutions to build a capital markets stack that lets countries \u201cturn on finance 2.0\u201d using tokenized assets and stablecoins.<\/p>\n
Gurbacs, now CEO of Hadron by Tether, frames the opportunity in blunt numerical terms, pointing to an estimated $700 trillion-plus in global financial assets and more than $10 trillion in securities that could be tokenized over time. \u201cWe are building the infrastructure that will connect those markets to a more efficient and accessible future,\u201d he said in a 2025 statement announcing a strategic deal with KraneShares to advance tokenized capital markets. In a separate interview, he stressed that 85% to 90% of the world\u2019s population still lacks a mature capital markets stack and argued that tokenization plus stablecoins like USDT can \u201clower the barrier to entry\u201d and let savers in places such as Argentina, Lebanon, or Turkey hold assets directly, without relying on fragile banks.<\/p>\n
