The real-world asset (RWA) market has experienced a significant surge in market capitalization, climbing 143% year-to-date to reach $34 billion as of October 21, 2025. This growth is driven by the increasing tokenization of traditional assets, with key players like Maker (MKR), Ondo Finance (ONDO), Realio (RIO), TrueFi (TRU), and XDC Network (XDC) leading the charge. These projects are facilitating the integration of real estate, bonds, commodities, and trade finance into blockchain-based systems. The sector's expansion is bolstered by rising institutional interest and clearer regulatory frameworks, underscoring the growing appeal of tokenized assets in the financial landscape.
