BlackRock CEO: The impact of tokenization on finance may be comparable to the impact of the early internet on the information sector.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink and COO Rob Goldstein stated that tokenization is becoming a transformative force in global markets, with a potential impact comparable to the early rise of the internet. On Monday, the two wrote an article in The Economist, simultaneously published on BlackRock's website. They believe that digital ledgers, which record asset ownership, can improve efficiency, transparency, and accessibility, driving the modernization of the financial system. They also wrote, "With the invention of self-repeating ledgers, ledgers have never been so exciting."
