The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has issued a warning about the potential systemic risks posed by tokenized finance, which it describes as a structural transformation of the global financial system. According to the IMF's latest report, tokenized finance replaces traditional intermediaries with smart contracts and shared ledgers, fundamentally altering market architecture. The current value of tokenized real-world assets stands at $27.5 billion, with U.S. Treasury bonds accounting for over $12 billion. While tokenization offers benefits such as near-instant settlement and 24/7 trading, the IMF cautions that its speed and automation could exacerbate systemic risks. In times of market stress, these features may lead to rapid liquidity crises, as the traditional buffering effect of settlement delays is absent.
