Ethereum RWA Market Surpasses $15B as Tokenized Treasuries Lead 3x Annual Growth
Tokenized Treasuries and gold drive Ethereum RWAs above $15B as institutional capital increases on-chain exposure.
Ethereum’s real-world asset sector is gaining momentum. Tokenized instruments tied to traditional finance continue to attract capital at a steady pace. Market value has now crossed $15 billion, marking more than a threefold increase over the past year. Growth reflects rising institutional participation and stronger demand for on-chain yield products.
On-Chain Treasuries Gain Traction as Asset Managers Increase Exposure
Crypto analyst Ted Pillows drew attention to the milestone, noting that expansion is becoming difficult to ignore. According to his assessment, tokenized funds sit at the center of recent acceleration.
Growth in Ethereum’s RWA market is mainly coming from tokenized U.S. Treasuries and money market products. These are low-risk government-backed assets. Investors can now hold them on-chain instead of through traditional banks or brokers. That means capital can stay inside crypto systems while still earning stable returns from government debt.
Tokenized gold has also expanded rapidly. Tether Gold grew from roughly $500 million to $2.7 billion over the past year. Meanwhile, Paxos Gold climbed to around $2.3 billion, rising 17.25% in the past month alone. Gold-backed tokens added more than $4 billion in fresh onchain value during that period.
On the other hand, treasury-focused products recorded even sharper gains. Ondo’s USDY, BlackRock’s BUIDL, offerings from Janus Henderson, Superstate, and WisdomTree posted triple- to four-digit growth rates. Capital inflows suggest institutions are moving beyond pilot programs and allocating meaningful funds.
Ethereum Maintains 60% RWA Share as Institutional Flows Build
New yield-bearing stablecoin products scaled quickly as well. Products like Syrup USDC and USDT quickly reached a combined $2.3 billion. Instead of sitting idle, stablecoins can now earn returns through tokenized Treasury exposure. This connects decentralized finance with traditional fixed-income markets, allowing crypto users to access government-backed yield directly on-chain.
Furthermore, tokenized Treasuries and gold can be integrated with DeFi protocols as collateral for loans and trading positions. Transparent settlement and programmable structures appeal to both crypto-native firms and traditional asset managers.
Ethereum remains dominant in this segment, holding roughly 60% of total RWA market share. Stablecoins issued on Ethereum exceed $160 billion, providing a deep liquidity base for further expansion. Compared with that figure, $15 billion in RWAs remains relatively small.
Early-stage positioning remains a key theme. If growth continues at a similar pace, tokenized Treasuries and related products could claim a larger share of on-chain capital markets. For now, institutional flows and rising issuance point to sustained momentum within Ethereum’s RWA sector.
