The RWA track has recently entered a new stage, with many projects beginning to explore breakthroughs. However, when talking about RWA, people habitually ask, "Is this asset really genuine?" But frankly, the core bottleneck isn't actually there.

To put it simply, the current crypto market's capacity to support RWA is still far from enough. Liquidity is scarce, and trading connections are imperfect, which means that even the most high-quality assets can only be treated as display items—packaged, marketed, and waiting to be hyped. Without a continuous price discovery mechanism and genuine open matching, the value of assets cannot circulate normally.

For RWA to truly land, the key is to solve the underlying infrastructure issues of trading and pricing. This is the hard bone that must be gnawed in the next step.

Liquidity issues are indeed a major weapon; having assets alone is useless, you need someone genuinely interested in buying. --- Exactly, most RWA projects are just PPT presentations now; without proper infrastructure, everything is pointless. --- That hits hard. The trading interfaces are terrible, no wonder no one is interested. --- Underlying infrastructure? Ha, these projects haven't even thought about that; they just want to make a quick profit and leave. --- The real root cause is the lack of a price discovery mechanism; pricing is still a mystery. --- Someone finally pointed it out: compared to real or fake assets, trading smoothness is more critical. --- RWA with scarce liquidity is like gold stored in a safe—worthless. --- Wait, why not use existing DEXs? Is it really impossible to do?

Liquidity issues are valid, but now might not be the right time; infrastructure isn't fully sorted out yet.

Alright, there's nothing wrong with that. Right now, RWA is just a fancy exhibition hall. But who dares to really bite the hard bones? We still have to wait for big funds to enter the market. Liquidity is easy to talk about, but solving it is a headache for everyone.

Infrastructure is the real bottleneck, no doubt about it. Liquidity is indeed underperforming right now; even the best assets are useless without it.

Liquidity is not enough; even real assets are useless. --- Exactly, right now it's just an exhibition, no one really wants to use it. --- Infrastructure hasn't kept up; arguing about what's true or false is meaningless. --- This is the bottleneck; recognize it clearly. --- Only when the trading pairs are connected properly can it work; otherwise, it's all talk. --- So the fundamental issues must be solved first; otherwise, no matter how many projects there are, they are just decorations. --- Price discovery mechanism is too important; without it, everything is in vain. --- Honestly, the most critical part that everyone can't see clearly is precisely that. --- If the matching efficiency isn't good, RWA will always be just a PPT project.
