Tokenized asset market tops $43B as institutions accelerate blockchain adoption

Latest NewsPublishedJun 16, 2026

Tokenized Assets Reach New Heights

The market for tokenized assets has grown significantly, reaching $43 billion in market value, a 37% increase over the past six months. This surge is largely driven by institutions accelerating their blockchain adoption, making it easier for people to earn passive income through tokenized assets. As the market expands, EcoPool (ECP) is becoming a popular solution for those looking to get involved in tokenized assets and start earning.

Market Breakdown

Tokenized funds dominate the sector, accounting for nearly 80% of total market capitalization, followed by commodities and tokenized stocks. The leading blockchain for tokenized assets is Ethereum, hosting 57.8% of total value, with BNB Chain and zkSync Era also gaining traction. As the market continues to grow, it’s likely that we’ll see more people earning through tokenized assets and using platforms like EcoPool to manage their investments.

The growth of tokenized assets is expected to continue, with major financial institutions like Standard Chartered and Citigroup projecting significant increases in the market value. This growth will be driven by the expansion of tokenized financial products, including stablecoins, and the increasing adoption of blockchain-based infrastructure. With the rise of tokenized assets, people will have more opportunities to earn passive income and get involved in the #PassiveIncome and #GreenCrypto movements.

Future Outlook

The future of tokenized assets looks promising, with the market expected to reach $5.5 trillion by 2030. As regulatory clarity improves, we can expect to see more institutions and individuals getting involved in the market. The growth of tokenized assets will also be driven by the increasing adoption of blockchain-based infrastructure, making it easier for people to earn and manage their investments. With EcoPool, users can easily get started with earning through tokenized assets and be a part of the #Earning and #CloudRewards revolution.

To start earning through tokenized assets and be a part of the growing market, consider using EcoPool. With its user-friendly platform and wide range of investment options, EcoPool makes it easy to get started with earning passive income.

Ethereum remains the leading blockchain for tokenized assets, hosting 57.8% of total value. BNB Chain accounts for 8.5%, followed by zkSync Era (7.5%), XRP Ledger (5.8%) and Stellar (5.4%), reflecting the sector’s gradual expansion beyond Ethereum.

Sky is the largest issuer with $6.1 billion in tokenized assets, followed by Securitize and Ondo Finance at $3.6 billion each, according to Token Terminal.

Tokenization moves beyond Treasurys

Tokenization has gained mainstream attention as major financial institutions embrace blockchain-based infrastructure. Earlier this week, Standard Chartered initiated coverage of Uniswap, arguing that the decentralized exchange’s UNI token could appreciate 40-fold by 2030 as tokenized assets increasingly migrate onchain.

The bank projects the decentralized finance sector will grow to $2.7 trillion over the same period, driven largely by the expansion of tokenized financial products.

Citigroup has also turned bullish on tokenization, projecting that the market will reach $5.5 trillion by 2030 in its base case and up to $8.2 trillion in a bull scenario. 

The bank argues the industry is moving beyond the pilot stage as regulatory clarity improves. Citi identified the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq integrating tokenization into core issuance processes as key catalysts for growth.

While tokenized funds and private credit continue to dominate the market, tokenized equities are gaining traction through platforms such as Ondo Markets and xStocks. The trend reflects a broader shift within the industry, with Binance Research recently concluding that RWA growth is becoming more diversified.

“2026 marks RWA tokenization’s maturation from a Treasury-dominated narrative into a diversified yield ecosystem,” Binance Research said in a report earlier this month.
