Real-world tokenized assets have hit around $65 billion, an increase of 44% compared to January, amid the increasing trend by traditional finance companies to put their money, bonds, and cash products on blockchain platforms. As Cryptopolitan reported in January, on-chain RWAs surged 232% through 2025, powered by BlackRock’s BUIDL fund crossing $1 billion and Treasury-backed products from Ondo Finance and Franklin Templeton. The 2026 pace has not matched that rate. The market grew from roughly $100 million in 2021 to over $60 billion today, per The Block, with tokenized US Treasuries alone reaching $14 billion as of May. Five networks splitting the market Ethereum accounts for about one-third of tokenized assets, backed by BlackRock’s BUIDL fund that has surpassed the $2 billion mark and has diversified into multiple chains. Provenance Blockchain accounts for roughly 27%, driven mostly by Figure Lending and mortgage-related issuance. BNB Chain, XRP Ledger, and Solana each sit near 6%. The Solana RWA market increased by 43% to reach $2.01 billion during Q1, according to a Messari report. In addition, Solana generated $342.2 million worth of on-chain economic activity. Franklin Templeton extended its FOBXX government money market fund to the Stellar and Polygon blockchains. Ondo Finance owns 60% of the tokenized equity market with $557 million across 230 assets in eight different categories, according to rwa.xyz data.

JPMorgan launched its first tokenized money market fund on Ethereum in December 2025 and filed a second one in May. DAMAC partnered with MANTRA on a $1 billion real estate tokenization project in January 2025.
