Within this ecosystem, Tokenize investment funds – including products pegged to US Treasury bills, bonds, and money market funds – currently account for the largest share. Data from defillama shows that this group accounts for approximately 44.5% of the entire market, equivalent to $10.5 billion.
Following closely behind are gold and Tokenize commodities, with a market size of approximately $6.5 billion, and Tokenize equities with nearly $4 billion. Other segments, such as private credit and yield-generating products, still account for smaller proportions.
The financial market never sleeps.
According to experts, the new growth driver for RWAs no longer lies in the concept of "Tokenize," but in the ability to distribute and trade assets 24/7 on the blockchain infrastructure.
Representatives from the RWA.xyz data platform stated that the biggest breakthrough is that many traditional financial products are now more accessible, easier to distribute, and easier to use thanks to blockchain technology.
This week alone, the total value of Tokenize securities on the blockchain surpassed $1 billion, according to RWA.xyz. Meanwhile, the Tokenize US Treasury bill market exceeded $10 billion in Capital in February, before rising to $11.13 billion in March.
According to Ross Shemeliak, co-founder and COO of Stobox, current markets often have limited trading hours and rely on multiple layers of intermediaries, making Capital flows slow and inflexible.
The financial giants are getting involved.
Besides demand from individual investors, the participation of large financial institutions in pilot programs is also helping to make the Tokenize model more credible.
Over the past year, many financial companies have launched on-chain versions of traditional assets, from US Treasury bills and investment funds to various other real-world assets.
This trend is XEM as a significant step forward in connecting traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure, and it opens up the possibility of forming a 24/7 financial market in the future.
