Foresight News现场报道,Solana Foundation Chair Lily Liu at Consensus 2026 stated that the core positioning of blockchain is financial infrastructure, with its key capability being the provision of digital scarcity and trustworthy value preservation, especially suitable for scenarios involving money, transactions, and asset rights confirmation.
Additionally, Lily Liu believes that combining Web2 super apps with public blockchains is the key to unlocking the full potential of the ownership economy. Although there are differing perspectives between technology-driven and finance-driven camps, consensus is pointing toward financial nativeness, meaning applications deeply integrated with currency, payments, and asset trading are most likely to withstand cycles and rebuild a more efficient global financial system.
