Real-world asset tokenization is picking up serious momentum. The sector hit $19.72B as of early January, with US Treasuries leading the charge—surging 125% to reach $8.86B. That's not subtle growth.

Institutional capital is flowing in at scale. Dedicated institutional funds jumped 714% to $2.84B, signaling that serious money is starting to treat tokenized RWA as legitimate infrastructure. BlackRock's BUIDL product crossed $2B, while JPMorgan rolled out MONY. These aren't fringe experiments anymore.

Stablecoins remain the backbone, sitting at $307.6B and providing the liquidity layer that makes all this movement possible. When you combine institutional confidence with growing asset tokenization, the infrastructure is quietly reshaping how traditional finance interfaces with blockchain.
