The article, published by The Paypers, discusses how tokenization is becoming a major force in global finance, growing into a multibillion-dollar market.

The piece explains how tokenized dollars and stablecoins strengthen the dollar’s global role and shows how interoperability pilots demonstrate real-time movement of tokenized assets.

The post sparked a flurry of comments from members of the crypto community, as the “Big Short” investor recently compared Bitcoin to the tulip bubble and challenged its valuation and practical use.

“Welcome back, [I’ll] take this as the big long for crypto,” an X user commented.

Some users suggested that Burry should take a closer look at Bitcoin.

Tokenization has seen strong institutional adoption throughout the year, with BlackRock CEO Larry Fink as one of the tech’s biggest advocates. He believes it is at a development stage similar to the internet in 1996, poised for substantial growth.

Fink, a retired Bitcoin skeptic, recently admitted that his early views on Bitcoin were wrong.
