Real-world assets (RWAs) on public blockchains have grown by 13.5% over the past 30 days, despite the market downturn. While Ethereum [ETH] is a key platform for this growth, other networks are also gaining space.
About the same, Nic Puckrin, investment analyst and co-founder of Coin Bureau, told AMBCrypto,
“The steady growth that we’ve seen in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs)... is one of the clearest signs yet of the transition the digital asset sector and the wider economy is undergoing right now.”

The network held approximately $178.9 billion in tokenized asset value at press time, far ahead of competitors.
Solana [SOL] followed with $17.3 billion, while BNB Chain [BNB] accounted for $15 billion and Arbitrum [ARB] held $8.6 billion. Base and Polygon [POL] trailed with $4.6 billion and $3.5 billion, respectively.
Over the past 30 days, Ethereum added $1.7 billion in new value, nearly double Arbitrum’s $880 million increase and significantly ahead of Solana’s $528 million growth.
Other chains also saw gains, including Liquid Network ($281 million), BNB Chain ($171 million), and XRP Ledger [XRP] ($159 million).
Tokenization is no longer limited to one ecosystem.
According to Puckrin, these capital flows are a long-term foundational change.
“The divergence suggests capital isn’t simply leaving the ecosystem, but rather rotating toward yield-bearing, cash-flow-backed instruments.”
He further added,
“This is typical during liquidity regime shifts, but we’re seeing it clearly in crypto for the first time.”
