The RWA tokenization market size has broken through $43 billion, as institutions accelerate the migration of assets on-chain

BlockBeats News, June 17 — The global real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market size has exceeded $43 billion, growing approximately 37% over the past 180 days, indicating that institutional funds are continuing to accelerate their migration to blockchain infrastructure.

The report points out that this growth has occurred against the backdrop of a relatively weak overall crypto market, with on-chain financial asset expansion mainly driven by the onboarding of traditional financial products, including funds, private credit, commodities, and stocks.

In the current market structure, tokenized funds dominate, accounting for about 80% of the total market capitalization; commodity assets account for 16.6%, and tokenized stocks about 3.8%. In terms of blockchain distribution, Ethereum remains the core network, representing 57.8%, with networks like BNB Chain, zkSync Era, XRP Ledger, and Stellar gradually increasing their share.

On the issuer side, Sky ranks first with approximately $6.1 billion, followed by Securitize and Ondo Finance, each with about $3.6 billion.

At the institutional level, investment banks such as Standard Chartered and Citibank have recently published reports optimistic about the long-term growth path of tokenized assets. Citibank projects that this market will reach $5.5 trillion by 2030 under baseline scenarios, and up to $8.2 trillion in optimistic cases, citing clearer regulation and the participation of infrastructure providers like DTCC and Nasdaq as key drivers.

Analysts believe that RWA tokenization is evolving from an early structure mainly based on government bonds to a diversified income asset system.
