Tokenized RWAs Hit $30B Market Cap, Growing 4x in Two Years

Mon 20th Oct 2025
**Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) have reached a $30 billion market**, representing nearly 4x growth over the past two years according to a16z's State of Crypto 2025 report. **Key market segments driving growth:** - Private credit dominates with $15.5B in active loans - Tokenized Treasuries account for $7.4B, up 500% year-over-year - Gold tokenization shows $2.1B in proven adoption **Ondo Finance has tokenized over $1.8 billion** in RWAs, establishing itself as a major player in the space. While the total RWA market appears large at $300B, **92% consists of stablecoins**. Non-stablecoin RWAs represent just $25B - still only 0.01% of global financial assets despite 2x annual growth. **The sector faces real challenges:** - Most projects rely on trust assumptions they claim to eliminate - Regulatory frameworks remain unclear for public tokenized securities - Data and oracle infrastructure gaps persist However, **genuine adoption is concentrated** in three proven categories: private credit offering 9.7% yields, programmable Treasury yields serving as DeFi collateral, and 24/7 tradeable gold. RWAs are evolving into crypto's yield layer through reliable infrastructure rather than speculative tokenization of everything.
