#数字资产市场动态 The financial system needs a complete overhaul—this is not an exaggeration, it's the latest policy signal.
Recent statements from Trump reveal a very strong message: the existing financial system can no longer keep up with the times, and will be completely transformed under a new framework using cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. It sounds like science fiction, but the underlying logic is actually very clear.
In simple terms, this is not about "crypto integrating into traditional finance," but the other way around—the financial system itself needs to go on-chain. How are payments settled? How does the clearing process work? How are assets registered? These fundamental financial logics will all be handled on the blockchain, no longer relying on intermediaries.
Why is this important? Because the efficiency gap is huge. Current cross-border transfers involve multiple banks and clearing institutions, with high costs and slow speeds. Stablecoins are already handling a large portion of settlement needs worldwide, proving the feasibility. The development of RWA (on-chain assets) is taking a step further—government bonds, deposits, various funds are starting to move onto the blockchain. Regulators are also pushing forward relevant legal frameworks, and the "Market Structure Bill" path is becoming increasingly clear.
Why is this time a presidential-level stance rather than just an industry one? The problems facing the US are very real: large national debt, low efficiency of the financial system, aging infrastructure. Rebuilding costs are astronomical, but blockchain is one of the few solutions that can simultaneously address efficiency, costs, and international competitiveness. This is not symbolic support; it’s a strategic consideration.
Imagine if the financial system truly begins to undergo large-scale "on-chainization"—what would transparency look like? global accessibility? transaction costs? This is not just good news for a single currency, but a structural shift for the entire crypto ecosystem. It’s not just short-term speculation, but a long-term systemic reconfiguration.
So now, the question becomes very interesting: is this just political posturing to create smoke and mirrors, or is it the beginning of a new era of financial system upgrade?

actually wait, if we're talking settlement layers and basis point optimization here... the correlation coefficient between stablecoin volume and treasury issuance patterns is already showing 0.73 over the past 8 months. not bullish rhetoric, just math.

Putting the financial system on the blockchain—it's easier to talk about than to do... Do we really need blockchain to save that pile of bad debts in U.S. Treasury bonds? Seems like overthinking it a bit.

Awesome, finally someone dares to speak the truth. The chain-based finance thing is really coming.

After blowing for so long, there's finally some substantial action, but we still need to observe whether it's genuine reform or just another round of empty promises.

On-chain financial systems? Sounds great, but I just want to ask—can it really eliminate those middlemen, or will it just change the name and continue to profit?
