Lately, I've increasingly felt that AI, Payment, and RWA shouldn't be treated as three completely independent narratives.
Here's a very real example:
Cross-border e-commerce sellers have already sold their goods, but the platform might not pay them back for another 14-28 days. However, inventory preparation, logistics, and advertising all require upfront investment.
In this situation, stablecoins can improve the efficiency of fund settlement, but they can't directly solve one problem: who is willing to provide funds in advance, and why should we trust merchants to repay on time? Can this process be automated, or even handled smoothly by AI bots?
You can see them more like three links in on-chain economic activity:
1️⃣ AI: Responsible for executing tasks, generating transaction and decision-making needs;
2️⃣ Payment: Responsible for fund transfer and settlement;
3️⃣ RWA: Allowing on-chain capital to enter the real asset and financing markets.
This is also what I've been particularly interested in recently following @DowProtocol. It's not simply about tokenizing assets; it's about leveraging e-commerce platforms' operational data, accounts receivable, and repayment mechanisms to connect real merchants' financing needs with on-chain funds.
Thinking a step further, I believe AI, Payment, and RWA (Rich Wireless Investment) shouldn't be considered three completely independent tracks.
As mentioned earlier, AI can assist in business decision-making, Payment solves payment settlement, and RWA has the potential to address the issues of where funds come from and how they circulate. Within this framework, @DowProtocol isn't creating another security tokenization product, but rather connecting e-commerce accounts receivable, merchant risk control, and repayment mechanisms to on-chain funds.
However, I also have a question: While putting assets on-chain is easy, the real challenge lies in proving asset authenticity, controlling bad debts, and ensuring fund recovery.
These problems won't automatically disappear just because blockchain is used.
Therefore, I believe that if future competition among public blockchains remains solely focused on TPS, TVL, and the number of assets issued, it may be too limiting.
More important than the amount of money on the blockchain is whether that money can be channeled into real-world business activities, creating a verifiable and sustainable cash flow – that's perhaps the most anticipated aspect of RWA's next phase.
Keep an eye on this sector, and keep following @UTechStables.
