Tokenized real-world assets, or RWAs, have reached a total market capitalization of $44.7 billion, according to a Techub News brief citing Cointelegraph. Of that amount, $2.9 billion has been deployed into decentralized finance protocols, while trading volume on decentralized exchanges over the past 24 hours came in at $321.8 million. The figures point to continued growth in the on-chain market for tokenized traditional assets.
RWAs refer to traditional assets such as real estate, bonds, and commodities that are tokenized using blockchain technology so they can be traded and transferred on-chain. The segment is described as a key piece of infrastructure linking traditional finance with DeFi. The latest data cited by the report indicates the sector has continued to expand in scale, alongside steady demand from institutional investors for on-chain exposure to physical-world assets.
Tokenized real-world assets now carry a total market capitalization of $44.7 billion, according to a Techub News brief that cited Cointelegraph. Out of that sum, $2.9 billion has gone into decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, while trading volume on decentralized exchanges (DEX) in the last 24 hours hit $321.8 million.
RWA means turning traditional assets like real estate, bonds, and commodities into blockchain-based tokens so they can be traded and moved on-chain, the report said. Cointelegraph called the category an important bit of infrastructure linking traditional finance with DeFi. And the sector keeps growing. That points to steady institutional demand for on-chain exposure to assets tied to the physical world.
