Blackrock CEO Fink Declares Tokenization Era Has Begun

Blackrock’s CEO Larry Fink has declared the onset of the “tokenization era” in finance. He cited expanding digital ETF adoption, growth in real-world asset (RWA) use, and increased interest in platforms like Solana as evidence of this shift. Fink outlined BlackRock’s plans to digitize over $4.1 trillion in assets through tokenized ETFs and platforms. The company’s iBIT Bitcoin ETF has recently surpassed $100 billion in assets under management, boosting their total digital holdings to $107.4 billion.
