According to Odaily, during the 15th New Leaders Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum held from June 25 to 27, Yoshitaka Kitao, the Executive Director and China Head of Mizuho Bank, shared his views on the role of digital currencies and blockchain technology in future economic growth. He stated that these areas hold significant potential for development, but they require time to become widespread and evolve.
The reason, he explained, is that for something to be defined as a currency, it needs to be applied in real economic scenarios, not just determined by a few investments. Therefore, before achieving this goal, these technologies need time to become more popular among the public. This perspective highlights the potential of digital currencies and blockchain technology in shaping the future of the global economy, while also emphasizing the need for patience and time for these technologies to fully mature and integrate into everyday economic activities.
