Ethereum’s tokenized real-world assets, including U.S. Treasuries, gold, and private credit, have crossed $15 billion, growing about 200% year-over-year. These blockchain tokens enable easier trading, yields, and fractional ownership. Ethereum holds 58% of the global non-stablecoin RWA market, with major players like BlackRock’s $1.8 billion BUIDL fund fueling growth. Transfer volumes doubled to $26 billion in 30 days, pushing RWAs to No. 4 in DeFi by total value locked at $21.5 billion, with analysts forecasting trillions more by 2030.
