The International Monetary Fund warns that tokenization could shift risk from banks into smart contract code outside direct regulatory control. According to BeInCrypto, the IMF said instant settlement on shared ledgers removes traditional “safety brakes,” potentially allowing disruptions or fund withdrawals to spread faster than authorities can respond, and argued oversight must extend “to the code itself.”

The IMF also noted that some smart contracts could become “too important to fail,” while courts have yet to determine ownership of tokenized assets. BlackRock’s tokenized fund BUIDL is worth about $2.4 billion, and Ondo manages over $1.4 billion; stablecoins exceed $300 billion, led by USDT nearing $186 billion and USDC around $73 billion.
