By now it has become pretty much a truism. When Jamie Dimon speaks, the prudent tend to listen. He is a Very Important Person, whose words and deeds carry immense weight throughout the corporate conference rooms and government halls the world over. While certainly in no way intended as an endorsement of Dimon’s words, it would nevertheless behoove us to pay attention. As one of the self-appointed “masters of the universe”, his public statements matter — particularly to anything relating to financial issues.
Here Comes the Story of the Hurricane
For those who have not yet heard by now, Dimon predicts a coming economic “hurricane.” Exhorting his audience, he warned them — “Brace yourself”. His view is that the Federal Reserve may not be up to the challenge of dealing effectively with the potential economic cataclysm he predicts is on the horizon.
By now, most of us in this space know that Dimon has never been a fan of Bitcoin. Others have documented thoroughly his disdain for the flagship of blockchain technology. Many of his critics suspect that his dislike stems from Bitcoin’s decentralized nature, which makes it exceedingly difficult to fully control. Regardless of his antipathy, and even open hostility toward Bitcoin, Dimon has voiced support for blockchain technology generally.
Dimon hates decentralization, but loves tokenization and the commodification it enables, it seems. While he doubts the future of digital gold and other decentralized digital assets, his traders and bankers are facilitating their well-heeled clientele’s forays into the cryptoverse. Obviously, he and his firm certainly harbor no qualms about making money off of the technology. We can all rest assured that no matter what the market does, Wall Street sees a future in digital assets, despite Dimon’s fears of a market catastrophe.
The Takeaway
Regardless of your opinion of Dimon and the rest of the traditional financial world, he is correct in at least one sense. The hurricane is indeed bearing down on the market. Periods of dramatic uncertainty and massive capital movements tend to breed literal and figurative revolutions. We need a secure, safe solution to protect our interests and our intent, not the interest of others. Fundamentally, that is the great promise of blockchain technology. Regardless of how that battle plays out, at the end of the day, the tokenization of assets will continue unabated, accelerating into the S-curve of adoption.
Cryptographic blockchain technology is one of the next major financial megatrends. Between the public’s lack of faith in the financial status quo and the market’s constant drive to reduce capital friction, broad adoption has become essentially a fait accompli. Digital asset adoption will lead the next generation of wealth management and generation. The fundamental utility of blockchain technology is proven and valuable. Indeed, in a mere five to ten years, most assets will be tracked, traced, and traded using some form of cryptographic tokenization technology.
