According to BlockBeats, on April 3, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated in its latest report that tokenized finance is not simply an upgrade of traditional finance, but rather a structural transformation. It replaces intermediaries with smart contracts and shared ledgers, reconstructing the architecture of global markets. Currently, the scale of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) has reached $2.75 billion, with tokenized U.S. Treasury bonds exceeding $1.2 billion.

The IMF noted that while tokenization can achieve near-instant settlement and 24/7 round-the-clock trading, its speed, automation, and programmability may amplify systemic risks, rapidly spreading liquidity crises under market pressure and lacking the buffer effect of traditional settlement delays.

Goldman Sachs Volatility Panic Index surged to 9.57, approaching its maximum value, with the largest single-day increase ranking third in history, and the combined two-day volatility setting a new record. Historical data shows that after this index has exceeded the 9.5 threshold 15 times, the S&P 500 has seen an average three-month gain of 4.6% with a success rate of 80%. However, Goldman Sachs traders warn that forced liquidations have not yet fully cleared, and the market is still searching for a bottom, but opportunities on the other side are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
