Yat Siu on blockchain

“We believe in this thing called the shared network effect which is possible in blockchain. The example of this would be you may not necessarily invest in a company that's building on Ethereum but just simply owning Ethereum tokens is effectively a way which you get to participate in the long-term effects of what Ethereum is building over time. That's a form of stakeholder capitalism, that's a form of participation that we're not able to do where everyone can do that.”

About Yat Siu
Yat Siu, executive chairman and co-founder of Animoca Brands, has been active in media appearances through mid-2026, discussing the convergence of AI agents, blockchain, and digital ownership. He stated that his company's joint venture, Anchor Point, received one of two Hong Kong dollar stablecoin licenses in the city, with the other license going to HSBC. Siu described the broader digital asset industry as moving toward an "agentic web" or "Web4," where autonomous AI agents conduct microtransactions and discovery on behalf of users. He noted that he personally deploys over 230 AI agents for tasks including coding and market arbitrage, and he encouraged others to adopt similar technology. Siu characterized blockchain's role as shifting from gaming toward real-world asset tokenization and stablecoins, arguing that tokenization expands network effects by assigning enumerated value to previously non-financial assets. He commented that altcoins collectively are likely to outperform Bitcoin, and that Ethereum's challenge is an "image problem" rather than fundamental flaws. Siu also described college as less important than early industry entry for many people, and framed digital ownership and identity as central to future economic sovereignty. He cited declining relevance of memecoins under clearer regulation and predicted that traditional financial rails will be fully replaced by blockchain infrastructure.
