RWA.xyz data places distributed real-world asset value at $26.71 billion and represented asset value at $345.07 billion across the wider tokenization market.
Consumer-facing adoption is expanding as Robinhood EU offers more than 2,000 stock tokens as derivative contracts linked to stocks and ETPs, while Kraken says xStocks reached 100 fully backed tokenized US stocks and ETFs and passed $25 billion in transaction volume after its June 2025 launch.
Traditional market institutions are now testing similar models. DTCC received SEC staff relief in December 2025 for a three-year tokenization service covering highly liquid DTC-custodied assets, including Russell 1000 constituents, major ETFs, and US Treasury bills, bonds, and notes. Nasdaq’s tokenized securities proposal also points toward a regulated model where tokenized shares trade with the same CUSIP, order book priority, and investor rights as traditional shares.
