The RWA tokenization market has hit a record total value locked (TVL) of $17.1 billion, reaching levels last seen in mid-January. This resurgence coincides with a 94% year-over-year increase, according to analytics platform RWA.xyz.
The sharp recovery on February 3 came amid broader gains in the crypto market, fueled by US President Donald Trump’s decision to temporarily halt tariffs targeting Canada and Mexico.
While the total cryptocurrency market capitalization rose by around 7%, RWA-related digital assets posted even stronger gains. Chainlink (LINK) soared 22% to surpass $21 after slipping to $17 earlier in the day. Similarly, the native token of Mantra (OM) surged 23% to reclaim $6, and Ondo Finance (ONDO) skyrocketed nearly 27% to $1.40. Chintai’s token (CHEX) surged 38%, reaching $0.60 following a dip below $0.40.
Wall Street Backs Tokenization Revolution
The RWA tokenization market has seen impressive growth since early November, when the sector first began its rapid climb. The market has added around $4 billion in value, representing a 26% increase in just a few months.
Private credit dominates the market, accounting for 70% of the onchain value, followed by US Treasury debts at 21%, RWA.xyz reports.
Wall Street appears keen to capitalize on the tokenization wave. Haqq Network co-founder Andrey Kuznetsov described the trend as a fundamental shift in financial markets. “Wall Street titans are sensing the signs and preparing to lead this change,” Kuznetsov noted in a February 1 statement.
What’s Ahead?
Eli Cohen, general counsel at Centrifuge, a major player in the RWA space, suggested that the Trump administration may soon back away from restrictive financial policies. Cohen believes that such moves would further boost the growth of RWA tokenization in 2025.
As the RWA market continues to thrive, the sector’s outperformance hints at a growing interest in bridging traditional finance with decentralized technology. With Wall Street giants now eyeing a projected $30 trillion tokenization opportunity, the coming months may mark a pivotal moment for this emerging sector.
