[IMF Warns Tokenization Market May Exacerbate Flash Crash Risks, Governments May Strengthen Regulation] The International Monetary Fund (IMF) released a video warning that while the tokenization market can accelerate financial transactions and reduce costs, it also introduces new systemic risks. The IMF pointed out that tokenization achieves cost savings by reducing intermediaries and enabling instant settlement, but automated trading may increase market volatility and exacerbate flash crash risks. Complex chains of smart contracts under market pressure could trigger chain reactions, amplifying localized issues into systemic shocks. The IMF anticipates that governments will adopt more proactive regulatory measures in the tokenization sector in the future.
