What’s driving real-world asset growth
Real-world asset (RWA) protocols tokenize traditional instruments — mostly US Treasuries and private credit — so they can be held and used as collateral on-chain. Rising TVL here usually reflects institutions testing on-chain settlement, and crypto-native treasuries parking idle stablecoins in tokenized T-bills instead of letting them sit uninvested.
What to watch
- Who the actual issuer or custodian of the underlying asset is.
- Whether redemptions are same-day or gated.
- Whether the yield genuinely comes from the underlying asset, or is partly subsidized by token incentives.
