Exclusive Interview: 2025 Asia RWA × AI Summit Forum Guest Interview—Brian Tian

Focus on Brian Tian: The Path to Ecological Win-Win from the Perspective of Technology Integration

According to FXH.AI report, 2025 year 10 month 19 day, the Asia RWA × AI Summit Forum was jointly hosted by FXH.AI and successfully held in Hainan. This forum gathered top experts from fields such as finance, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and investment to jointly discuss the industry prospects, innovation paths, and ecological co-construction directions under the integration of real-world assets (RWA) and artificial intelligence (AI). The conference focused on in-depth exchanges on topics such as "Global Blockchain Trends", "AI Empowering Asset Transparency", and "RWA International Development Opportunities", injecting new thoughts and momentum into industrial upgrading and compliance innovation.

After the forum, we conducted exclusive interviews with multiple guests. This article is the interview transcript of Mr. Brian Tian—starting from an investment perspective, he deeply analyzed the long-term value of RWA, dissected the integration trend of AI and blockchain technology, and shared his unique insights on the potential opportunities and challenges in the global capital market.

Brian Tian

Brian Tian entered the blockchain investment field in 2018, founded Chain Fir Capital, which is the only Token Fund located in Shanghai Lujiazui Financial Center to date. Team members come from international top financial institutions such as KPMG and J.P. Morgan, possessing profound investment research and risk control capabilities. He initiated the establishment of the Global Blockchain Fund Alliance (GBFA), which has now gathered over a hundred top investment institutions worldwide, including world-class capital forces such as SoftBank, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan. Brian Tian , with his international vision, cross-border thinking, and sharp judgment, is recognized as one of the global investment representatives in the Web3 and RWA tracks.

How do you view the role of this Asia RWA × AI Summit Forum in promoting industrial synergy, deepening technological consensus, and leading global dialogue?

This forum, both in topic planning and guest lineup, represents the highest standard of the current RWA industry. The combination of RWA and AI is not only a cross-border integration at the technical level but also a key driving force for promoting global asset efficiency, transparency, and compliance. The forum provides the industry with an extremely valuable platform for idea exchange.

Currently, the RWA industry faces core pain points in asset ownership confirmation, valuation, and circulation. What breakthrough solutions can AI technology provide?

RWA industry's core pain points lie in complex asset ownership confirmation, scattered data, low circulation efficiency, and high regulatory requirements. AI cannot completely restructure the entire process but can improve efficiency in document processing, data recognition, and automated analysis. Meanwhile, after asset issuance, it can increase liquidity through intelligent trading systems, thereby providing investors and enterprises with a more convenient operational experience.

AI in RWA data processing: how to balance efficiency and security? Especially in sensitive asset information desensitization, privacy protection, and compliance, what practical experiences are there?

In RWA scenarios, asset legality and compliance are the core, technology is only an auxiliary tool. AI can accelerate security audits and data processing efficiency, but sensitive information desensitization and privacy protection still rely on blockchain and legal frameworks. In other words, AI improves efficiency, but true security and compliance depend on the combination of systems and technology.

From a technology implementation perspective, what is the key path for AI-driven RWA Tokenization? How to break through current technical bottlenecks (such as cross-chain collaboration, smart contract risks)? Under AI empowerment, how will the business model of the RWA industry be restructured?

The core driving force for RWA Tokenization is market demand, not AI itself. Listed companies exploring stock-token linkage and real enterprises trying new financing methods are the real drivers. AI can assist in data processing and transaction optimization, but cross-chain collaboration and smart contract risks are already minimal; the key is investors' attention to audit information, not the technology itself. The essence of the RWA business model will not be disrupted by AI, but AI will add data scenarios for asset on-chain and human-machine collaboration. Financial institutions can seize investment banking opportunities, technology companies can provide on-chain technology and tools, and blockchain platforms should optimize ecological construction, providing more RWA application tools for the technology community, achieving a synergistic ecosystem of "technology + scenario + capital".

In the next 3 - 5 years, what are the development trends of AI and RWA integration, and which sub-sectors will be the first to be implemented?

AI and RWA integration's greatest possibility is the Tokenization of AI services themselves, achieving divisible and tradable digital service assets. The first large-scale implementation areas for RWA are still financial basic assets, such as stocks, paper gold, funds, futures, stablecoins, etc., while innovative fields like supply chain finance, intellectual property, and translation services also have potential, providing new opportunities for entrepreneurship, product development, and investment.

New Engine for Financial Transformation, Building a New Global Industrial Value Ecosystem Together

Through this forum and the in-depth sharing of guests, it can be seen that RWA has become the core bridge connecting real assets and intelligent finance. The intervention of AI allows the financial system to move from "information transparency" to "intelligent decision-making", promoting asset value discovery and risk pricing into a new stage.

As Mr. Brian Tian said, RWA is no longer just a single act of asset on-chain, but a deep-level transformation about the reconstruction of the global financial system. With the continuous advancement of standardization, intelligence, and internationalization, RWA will become a new engine for promoting high-quality development of the digital economy, helping the industrial ecosystem achieve a historical leap from capital collaboration to value win-win.
