Real-world asset (RWA) tokenization is accelerating as institutional players expand exposure. Distributed asset value stands at $1.906 billion, while Canton Network’s institutional assets total about $383.14 billion. In aggregate, the market holds roughly $414.6 billion in assets, with Canton’s management accounting for about $395.2 billion of that. The number of asset holders has risen to 583,821, up 7.23% from the prior period, and stablecoins remain the dominant vehicle with $299.17 billion in value and more than 212.54 million holders.
The total asset base grew by 4.59% over the last month. Regulatory pilots are under way, underpinning the growth trajectory. DTCC and the SEC have approved a three-year securities tokenization pilot, aiming for a late-2026 rollout. Asset managers like Amundi forecast the tokenization fund market reaching around $606 billion by 2030 as distributed ledger technology adoption accelerates.
In parallel, tokenized gold has surged from $1.0 billion at the start of the year to $3.27 billion, highlighting gold as a leading growth driver in the RWA space. Industry outlook remains positive, with broader participation anticipated beyond institutions. Bitcoin price weakness and shifting capital flows have not deterred on-chain activity, as individual investors increasingly allocate to stable assets amid volatility. Industry leaders project the total tokenization market to surpass $100 billion by the end of 2026, with tokenized bonds expected to lead and tokenized stocks gradually expanding.
