Solana Foundation Chair Says Tokenization Has Entered a ‘Super Cycle’

Lily Liu, chair of the Solana Foundation, said tokenization has entered a “super cycle.”

In a recent post on X, Liu wrote that tokenization goes beyond simply moving existing assets onto a blockchain. It changes how assets are issued, held, financed and traded.

Liu said stablecoins have demonstrated the potential to move global capital on-chain. That trend is being reinforced by financial institutions’ tokenization of real-world assets, improvements in blockchain speed and costs, and the addition of artificial intelligence agents.

If that momentum continues, most assets with clearly verifiable ownership will be tokenized, Liu said. Broader adoption of tokenization technology could also lower barriers to entry tied to geography and investment size.
