Howard Lutnick, the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, articulated his support for crypto stablecoins and the tokenization of financial assets.
“Dollar hegemony is fundamental to the United States of America. It matters to us, to our economy,” Lutnick said at the <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/chainalysis/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/chainalysis/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Chainalysis</a> conference in New York, expressing his backing for well-supported <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/stablecoin/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/stablecoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">stablecoins</a> like Tether and <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/circle/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/circle/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Circle</a>.
Cantor Fitzgerald is a custodian for <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/tether/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/tether/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Tether</a> Holdings, the largest issuer of stablecoins, which has been scrutinized regarding its backing claims.
Lutnick contends that stablecoins contribute positively to the U.S. economy by driving demand for U.S. Treasuries and representing a non-systemic risk.
Further focusing on the advantages of blockchain technology in finance, Lutnick predicted a major shift towards <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/tokenization/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">tokenizing</a> real-world assets (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/rwa/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/rwa/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">RWA</a>), such as bonds, facilitated by advancements in blockchain technology.

“I think when proper blockchains […] are fast and cheap, are available, I think you will see over the next 10 years, fundamental tokenization of financial assets,” Lutnick said.
The move towards tokenization aligns with broader industry trends, with major financial institutions like <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/blackrock/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/blackrock/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BlackRock</a>, <a href="https://crypto.news/brevan-howard-participates-in-institutional-effort-to-tokenize-funds/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/brevan-howard-participates-in-institutional-effort-to-tokenize-funds/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Brevan Howard</a>, and KKR exploring the technology for fund components.
<a href="https://crypto.news/citigroup-succeeds-in-blockchain-equity-tokenization-trial/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Citigroup</a>‘s projection that the tokenization market could reach $5 trillion by 2030 shows the potential scale of this shift.
However, <a href="https://twitter.com/howardlutnick" data-type="link" data-id="https://twitter.com/howardlutnick" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Lutnick</a> voiced concerns over central bank digital currencies (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/cbdc/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/cbdc/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CBDCs</a>), fearing their perception as tools of surveillance by other nations, notably China, which might view them as the American spy wallet.
