BlockBeats News, November 3rd, Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson stated at Hong Kong Fintechweek 2025 that the previous crypto world and traditional financial world were two parallel universes, both large in scale but with almost no overlap. Like two parallel lines moving forward, suddenly the situation changed, the traditional financial world began to awaken and integrate with the crypto world, putting financial products on the chain, and customers also began to strongly demand exposure to crypto assets.
For millennials, Bitcoin is like their gold. I think Bitcoin itself is an asset, almost like a religion—either you believe it or you don’t. Franklin is paying attention to what is happening in the crypto world because disruption is coming not only from traditional business competitors but also potentially from the crypto world. Many new business models will emerge in the crypto space, and I believe the next great companies will emerge from this area—alongside AI companies.
