RWA Crypto Boom: $29B Tokenized After 11% Weekly Surge

The market of tokenized real-world assets (RWA) is establishing itself as one of the strongest trends in crypto. In one week, their capitalization has grown by 11%, reaching a new peak at 76 billion dollars. This surge coincides with the growing adoption of blockchain infrastructures by financial institutions.

Crypto and real assets: a market in full mutation

Since January, the onchain value of RWA cryptos has almost doubled to exceed 29 billion dollars. The majority of tokenized assets consists of:

• private credit (50%);
• US Treasury bonds (25%).

The rest is distributed among:

• stocks;
• commodities;
• bonds;
• alternative funds.

Including stablecoins, the overall value rises to 307 billion dollars.

The interest in RWAs reflects a strategic turning point. It indeed shows that crypto is no longer just for speculation. It becomes a financial structuring tool. Interoperability, permanent liquidity, and transparency attract both fintechs and traditional banks.

Ethereum leading, Layer 2 accelerates

According to the data , more than 75% of tokenized assets circulate on Ethereum and its Layer 2 extensions. The public blockchain is indeed attractive due to its technical robustness and mature ecosystem. Crypto projects like Chainlink, Avalanche, or Ondo Finance pilot this rise with institution-focused solutions.

BlackRock, the world’s number one asset manager, confirms this trend. After the successful launch of its BUIDL fund on Ethereum, it now plans to tokenize its ETFs . An approach aligned with the vision of its CEO Larry Fink, who foresees a widespread tokenization of finance.

Beyond the numbers, the current dynamic opens the way to a new global exchange standard. Crypto is entering a phase of deep integration, at the crossroads of public finance and private markets. The coming years could therefore redefine the very foundations of the global financial system. For some, crypto-assets already threaten global stability .
