@Arthur Breitman : 我对铀市场很感兴趣,几年前就想投资铀,但发现传统市场准入门槛高,最低投资额高达400万美元,而且现有的ETF追踪铀价不准确,存在巨大折扣。这促使我思考如何利用区块链技术来改善铀市场的流动性和可及性。我们创建了Uranium.io平台,旨在将铀代币化,让更多投资者能够以更低的成本参与到铀市场中。 传统的铀交易方式是通过与大型存储商(如Cameco)建立账户进行账面交易,交易单位通常很大。我们的平台则允许以更小的单位进行交易,例如1美元甚至更少。 区块链技术在资产证券化方面的应用,其效率提升并非巨大,且投资者基础匹配度和流动性问题仍需解决。然而,对于大型、具有战略意义且缺乏流动性的资产类别,如铀,区块链技术可以发挥重要作用。铀具有标准化程度高、存储成本低、替代品少的特点,这使其成为代币化的理想选择。 目前铀市场火热,原因在于对核能的反对声音减弱以及对核电站建设的需求增加,尤其是在中国和美国。此外,模块化反应堆的出现降低了核电站建设成本,进一步增加了对铀的需求。 未来,我们将专注于增加用户数量、交易量和平台上代币化的铀数量,并可能推出更多资产。我个人对商品市场持乐观态度,因为自动化和人工智能的发展将增加对商品的需求。 @Frank Chaparro : 作为主持人,我主要负责引导对话,提出问题,并对Arthur Breitman的观点进行总结和补充。例如,我提到了铀市场缺乏衍生品,以及区块链技术在其他资产(如房地产、债券)代币化方面的尝试和挑战。我还探讨了铀市场代币化的优势,以及如何利用DeFi生态系统来增强铀的实用性和流动性。此外,我还与Arthur Breitman讨论了影响铀市场供需的因素,以及铀市场代币化面临的监管和法律挑战。
