Lily Liu of the Solana Foundation argues that tokenization represents a fundamental shift in how value is created, owned, financed, and moved — not just a way to increase access to tokens.
A Structural Claim
Liu's argument goes beyond the common focus on liquidity and fractional ownership. She's saying tokenization changes the underlying mechanics of value itself. It's not about making existing assets easier to trade; it's about redefining how value comes into existence, who holds it, how it's funded, and how it circulates.
That's a structural claim, not a marketing pitch. Liu made the remarks in her role with the Solana Foundation.
Whether that shift materializes is an open question. But Liu's framing sets a high bar for what tokenization could achieve.
