Tokenized real-world assets (RWA) could potentially represent trillions in traditional finance markets, according to new research by Animoca Brands. This sector shows significant growth potential.
Overview of Real Asset Tokenization
According to the research, the addressable market for tokenized assets is estimated at $400 trillion, while currently only $26 billion worth of assets have been tokenized. This opens significant opportunities for sector growth.
Market Segments of Tokenized Assets
Currently, the tokenized asset market is largely concentrated in two categories: private credit and U.S. Treasurys, which together account for nearly 90% of the tokenized market value. This reflects investor preference for stable, yield-bearing instruments.
Future of Tokenization: Multichain Approach
Ethereum remains the leading blockchain for asset tokenization, holding a 55% market share. However, experts emphasize that the future of asset tokenization will embrace a multichain approach, with interoperability becoming a key factor.
Thus, tokenization of real assets represents a growing sector with potential opportunities for institutional investors, which may be integrated with traditional financial systems.
