Neo Founder Da Hongfei Says SpaceX IPO Talk Highlights Two-Way Flow Between Crypto and Traditional Finance

Neo founder Da Hongfei said discussion around a potential SpaceX initial public offering has fueled debate about real-world assets (RWA) and the relationship between crypto and traditional finance. According to Foresight News, Da said some market participants view the integration of crypto and traditional finance as capital moving from crypto into traditional assets, but he argued that once the “rails” are built, value will flow in both directions. He said current attention is focused on infrastructure such as AI, computing power, and storage, and added that the same rails could later help traditional capital identify unique value created on-chain. Da also said crypto remains one of the fastest-growing industries in history and that major innovation still lies ahead, urging optimism. He added that he has been advancing a restructuring of the Neo Foundation over the past few months and continues to pursue a “humanless blockchain” strategy aimed at building financial infrastructure for an AI-native future.
