In this Consensus Hong Kong 2026 panel discussion, we break down what's really driving the rise of Real World Assets (RWA) in crypto — and whether everything is about to be tokenized.

From tokenized T-Bills and private credit to AI portfolio agents and DeFi looping risks, this conversation explores the next evolution of on-chain finance.

- Why tokenized Treasuries became the breakthrough moment

- How institutional adoption is changing DeFi dynamics

- Will RWA yields become crypto's new risk-free rate?

- AI agents managing portfolios on-chain

- The UX challenge holding crypto back

- The biggest risk facing crypto right now

- Are institutions preparing to dump on retail?

As TradFi and DeFi converge, we may be entering a new era where markets never sleep, liquidity is 24/7, and volatility moves faster than ever. The future of finance is being built in real time.
