The RWA market capitalization was around $30.2 billion as of Wednesday. Source: RWA.xyz “Tokenized commodities like gold have gained traction, particularly amid heightened volatility from ongoing geopolitical tensions, as 24/7 markets unlock continuous liquidity and global access when traditional venues are closed,” the analyst added. Tokenization has been one of the drivers of institutional interest in blockchain and crypto over the past year. Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest predicts digital assets could grow into a $28 trillion market by 2030, with Bitcoin, decentralized finance, stablecoins and tokenized RWAs as key drivers. Regulatory clarity through legislation such as Europe’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) has also helped attract institutional players and fresh capital to the RWA sector, according to a Thursday report from crypto data aggregator CoinGecko. Zhong Yang Chan, CoinGecko’s head of research, and research analyst Yuqian Lim said in the report that a few years ago, the RWA market rallied more on hype than substance. “However, the RWA sector has finally started to take shape from 2024 onward. Regulatory clarity has enabled major TradFi institutional players to dip their toes in. As early experiments paved the way by turning into best practices and playbooks, the pace of tokenization has noticeably accelerated,” they said.

Fidelity followed suit in September 2025 with its own tokenized Fidelity Digital Interest Token (FDIT). “2025 has proven to be a watershed year for RWAs. For both crypto-native and traditional players, competition within the RWA and tokenization stack has intensified, with issuers now differentiating on regulatory standing, asset coverage and distribution reach,” Zhong and Yuqian added.
