BlockBeats News, August 27, Binance founder CZ stated at the Bitcoin Asia 2026 conference:

“Tokenized assets are favorable to Bitcoin, beneficial to the entire industry. Those who understand Bitcoin will eventually delve into other blockchains, other tokens, and so on; and those who enter through stock tokenization will also eventually see Bitcoin.

For example, today, we are in Hong Kong. For Asians who want to buy US stocks, opening a brokerage account is very challenging. And for the few who are able to open a US brokerage account, the trading hours are very inconvenient. The US stock market trades roughly from 11 pm to 4 am every night. Therefore, after tokenization, the opportunity to enter the stock market has actually become more democratized. People who used to want to buy US stocks but couldn't now can. However, they are doing so through a crypto platform, and once they enter the crypto platform, they are very likely to gain exposure to Bitcoin that they didn't have before. Over time, this effect will continue to accumulate.

So, what is beneficial to tokenized stocks is actually beneficial to the traditional stock market as well, and at the same time to Bitcoin. I believe all of these things are mutually reinforcing. The entire ecosystem is not a competitive relationship of one project against another.”
