Real-World Assets On-Chain — The $20B Story Few Cover

Tokenized real-world assets crossed $20B in on-chain TVL this month — a category that did not exist meaningfully two years ago.

The breakdown: tokenized US Treasuries account for $11.4B (up 600% YoY), tokenized private credit at $4.2B, tokenized real estate at $2.1B. BlackRock’s BUIDL fund alone holds $3.8B of the Treasury total.

Ondo Finance, Maple, and Centrifuge are the other major players. The asset class is genuinely ‘boring institutional finance, on-chain’ — not speculation.
