Experts answer<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons for the increasing popularity of, and people\u2019s increasing interest in, crypto lies in the fact that the technology that forms the backbone of cryptocurrency promises more financial inclusion compared with legacy finance. It is especially important for developing countries and emerging markets with fast-growing economic potential \u2014 the regions with the most promising potential for mass crypto adoption. And while blockchain cannot solve all of society\u2019s problems, it\u2019s the community behind this industry that should address the factors causing financial exclusion.

Since the old financial system has rotted and degenerated, we have witnessed an unprecedented amount of money-printing by governments all over the world amid the COVID-19 pandemic. DeFi brings forward the prospect of a paradigm shift, promising not just the democratization of money but the democratization of finance, representing a seismic shift in the way people will bank in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Related: <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>How has the COVID-19 pandemic affected the crypto space?

With central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, being researched by governments all over the world and more institutional players \u2014 such as MicroStrategy, Mastercard, Bank of New York Mellon, Tesla and many others \u2014 entering the space, it seems inevitable that the global economy will have to accept that crypto, and the technology behind it, is here to stay.

Cointelegraph decided to reach out to experts from China in the blockchain and crypto space for their opinions on the following question: <em>What role will emerging technologies \u2014 such as blockchain, crypto and DeFi \u2014 play in shaping the future of finance in the world in general and in China specifically?<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bobby_Lee_founder_and_CEO_of_Ballet\"><\/span>Bobby Lee, founder and CEO of Ballet:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI think the way that blockchain and crypto have changed finance globally is by essentially introducing a brand-new asset class. Traditionally, the world only had gold and silver. After that, we had the invention of paper money, which became currency, and that was a new asset class. And then after a few more hundreds of years, the invention of stocks. Equity stocks in a company became the notion of ownership in the company, so stocks became an asset class. And of course, we&#8217;ve had loans and bonds. So, whether it&#8217;s government or corporate bonds, that&#8217;s another asset class.<\/p>\n<p>And what we&#8217;re seeing with crypto for 12 years now is that we have Bitcoin and now a new asset class called digital currency. Now, it&#8217;s called digital currency, but it really doesn&#8217;t have to be used like currency. It should be just treated like a new asset class. But why do we need that new asset class?<\/p>\n<p>The issue with paper currency is that people in power always want to change rules to sort of strengthen their power over and hold on the economy, and thus over the people. So, they introduce the notion of unlimited printing. And this was only introduced in 1971. We&#8217;re now at the 50-year anniversary of this new kind of asset class, which has a new feature: unlimited printing. Pretty much, before 50 years ago, the U.S. dollar did not have unlimited printing because it was backed by gold. So, you couldn\u2019t have unlimited printing, but now you can have a little bit of printing because you&#8217;ve uncoupled from gold. Fiat currency has changed.<\/p>\n<p>And now because of its change, the world\u2019s locomotive has introduced a new asset class called Bitcoin, which is meant to counterbalance the change in fiat currency \u2014 to give people and give the world a choice. Do you want to continue to use an asset class that keeps on printing with no limit? Or would you prefer to put your savings at value into an asset class that has a strict upper limit of 21 million units? That&#8217;s what crypto is bringing to the world. <\/p>\n<p>Important questions are: Who wins? Who&#8217;s right? Who&#8217;s wrong? I think crypto will win because of its limited issuance, strictly limited in nature. My thoughts on Bitcoin as an asset class can be read in my <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/books\/about\/The_Promise_of_Bitcoin_The_Future_of_Mon.html?id=IYspEAAAQBAJ&amp;redir_esc=y\">book<\/a> <em>The Promise of Bitcoin: The Future of Money and How It Can Work for You.<\/em> Cryptocurrency is bringing to the world the notion of a new asset class. And it&#8217;s also bringing balance back to the world because before Bitcoin, the most relevant form of money was currency issued by governments, what we call fiat currency, and crypto has changed the very nature of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chang_Jia_founder_of_Bytom_and_8btc\"><\/span>Chang Jia, founder of Bytom and 8btc:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cFirst of all, the digital yuan mentioned in the first article, which integrates the cutting-edge blockchain technology and cryptography technology, has started to carry out the application in several first-tier cities in China. One could say that DCEP is already serving the national economy and the people\u2019s livelihood. The prototype of China\u2019s future financial network is gradually emerging. Therefore, in terms of digital finance, China is in a leading position over the world.<\/p>\n<p>For the world, blockchain technology has a major mission in the future, including promoting currency internationalization, trade globalization and a better structure for the world\u2019s top-level financial system to avoid the recurrence of a financial crisis.<\/p>\n<p>At present, we can perceive that Bitcoin created by blockchain technology is becoming the preferred hedging asset of mainstream finance and has reached a market value of 1 trillion U.S. dollars within a short decade. <\/p>\n<p>In the long process of financial evolution, Bitcoin and other high-quality cryptocurrencies will bring a new logical switch and asset portfolio to the world from the nature of currency and finance.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Da_Hongfei_founder_of_Neo_founder_and_CEO_of_Onchain\"><\/span>Da Hongfei, founder of Neo, founder and CEO of Onchain:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe ongoing DeFi boom has proven that blockchain technology is here to stay.

As a representative of securities platforms, Robin Hood could restrict retail trading and even force users to sell. Once again, this makes us realize the importance of decentralized finance.

It can provide financial services for people in less-developed areas and enable people all over the world to experience more transparent and fair financial products and services. People can choose financial service providers according to their demand for financial products and fully enjoy a variety of truly decentralized and rich financial ecology.<\/p>\n<p>The impact of blockchain technology on traditional finance will be greater than the impact of current financial technology on the banking industry.

We\u2019re already seeing crypto replace aging pieces of the traditional financial system, from crypto remittances between the U.S. and Mexico that significantly reduce costs to lending protocols on Ethereum that don\u2019t require a counterparty.<\/p>\n<p>But beyond that, we\u2019re seeing entirely new financial tools that didn\u2019t previously exist emerging with the rise of crypto and blockchain. One example is social tokens, which allow influencers to monetize their brand and bring their communities along for the ride. Improving the economics between creators and fans can be the key to unlocking a household-supporting income for millions of creators around the world.<\/p>\n<p>All of these developments are particularly important in regions like China and greater Asia.

In these areas, we believe that the West and China are very important. <\/p>\n<p>At the same time, we are also exploring the development of blockchain in the financial field.
