According to information from Bingjie News, Standard Chartered Bank predicts that, driven by RWA tokenization, the total value of DeFi locked assets could reach $2.7 trillion by 2030—about 37 times the current level. Geoff Kendrick, Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered, said that the next round of structural growth opportunities in digital assets will come from DeFi protocols, and that the share of tokenized assets entering the DeFi ecosystem is expected to rise from the current level of about 3.5% to around 30% by 2030. Standard Chartered previously predicted that by the 2028s, the real-world asset scale of tokenized non-stablecoins would reach $2 trillion. Decentralized trading protocols such as Uniswap may become important trading hubs for tokenized assets.

Tokenized assets will account for 30% share, and the boundary between traditional finance and DeFi is becoming increasingly blurred

I believe in Uniswap acting as a hub, but 2030 is too far away. I'll focus on surviving until next year first.

The structural growth that Geoff Kendrick mentioned means that institutions are coming in to take over.

The RWA track has indeed been popular this year, but the 37x figure looks like just pie-in-the-sky talk.

2.7 trillion locked in custody, institutional entry strategies are becoming increasingly obvious.

Standard Chartered's prediction is quite aggressive, a 37-fold increase.
Can RWA this wave boost DeFi?
