Chairman of Caihua Media Group, Lo Yuk Yi: The Trillion-Dollar Market Potential of RWA Can Only Be Unleashed Through the Injection of High-Quality Traditional Assets

Techub News: The "Hong Kong Fintech Summit Forum and Synnerva Technology Product Launch Event", jointly organized by Hong Kong-listed company Synnerva Technology (1611.HK), Avenir Group, and Techub News, with Caihua Media as the strategic cooperative media support, was held at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong.

Ms. Lao Yuyi, Founder of the Top 100 Hong Kong Stocks, Chairlady of Caihua Media Group, and President of Web3 Space, systematically shared the practical path and breakthrough ideas for RWA development, focusing on "Top 100 Hong Kong Stocks Connecting Web2 and Web3" during the "Tokenization of Physical Assets: How RWA Reshapes the Boundaries Between Traditional Finance and Digital Wealth" roundtable.

Lao Yuyi stated that she has been deeply involved in the media industry for 25 years and initiated the Top 100 Hong Kong Stocks activity 14 years ago, long serving enterprises in the Web2 era and selecting the best and most investable listed companies for investors. With industry evolution, she believes she now carries an important mission—to lead Web2-listed companies into the new Web3 track. To this end, she actively participates in various Web3-related activities, hoping to help bridge and expand the industry ecosystem while expecting companies with market capitalizations exceeding hundreds of billions, trillions, and tens of trillions to notice Web3's vast development opportunities. Having witnessed the growth of many Hong Kong-listed companies with market caps of hundreds of billions in the past, she now aims to drive these Web2 giants to focus on Web3, with RWA being the key link. Its trillion-dollar market potential can only be unleashed through the injection of traditional high-quality assets.

Addressing the core question of "Which assets to choose for RWA implementation," she provided the answer: "Focus on consensus assets and learn from mature experiences." She believes that assets widely recognized by the public with stable returns, such as real estate and charging piles, are the best choices to break cognitive barriers: "Real estate prices and returns are clear and easy to audit and certify; North America's RealT has tokenized thousands of properties, and BlackRock has promoted the tokenization of U.S. bond funds. These cases prove the path is feasible, and Hong Kong can directly refer to them."

Discussing industry bottlenecks, Ms. Lao Yuyi proposed a "dual-drive" solution: on one hand, strengthen investor education and bridge the public's cognitive gap regarding RWA and DeFi through professional activities; on the other hand, promote regulatory innovation, suggesting that regulatory bodies provide flexible trial-and-error space for traditional asset tokenization under controllable risks. She specifically mentioned that private banking clients' demand for guaranteed returns aligns with the characteristics of RWA products like charging piles and bonds, making this demand worth exploring.
