Global economic uncertainty has amplified investor anxiety. In 2025, global markets face multiple pressures, including stock market corrections, economic slowdowns, geopolitical tensions, and the U.S.-China trade war, all of which have heightened risk aversion. The Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts, rising global inflation, and supply chain instability have intensified volatility in traditional capital markets. These factors have not only impacted equity markets but also driven many investors toward safer alternatives, with capital flowing into havens like gold and bonds. Simultaneously, the Web3 market has seen growing demand for stable investment products. Against this backdrop, low-volatility assets such as stablecoins and RWA tokenized assets have gained traction. This shift reflects investors’ strong demand for transparency, liquidity, and long-term stability while fostering gradual convergence between Web3 and traditional finance. Investors recognize that only assets with high transparency and stable returns can deliver long-term value appreciation in an uncertain market environment. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
