Bitwise CIO: On-chain finance will explode ahead of schedule, Hyperliquid's transaction volume exceeded 11.5 billion dollars last weekend
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated that it was previously expected that traditional markets would take 5 to 10 years to migrate to on-chain at scale. However, following the U.S. attacks on Iran and during the global major stock market closures, a large number of investors flocked to crypto platforms to trade tokenized assets, significantly advancing the timeline for the adoption of "on-chain finance." The crypto perpetual contract platform Hyperliquid has become a trading center for real-world assets (RWA) such as crude oil and tokenized gold.
"During most of Sunday, on-chain finance became the center of the global financial market," data shows that Hyperliquid's total trading volume exceeded $11.5 billion over the weekend. Additionally, the 24-hour trading volume of Tether's tokenized gold product, Tether Gold, surged to over $300 million at one point, and the trading volumes on prediction markets Kalshi and Polymarket also saw significant increases.
