U.S. Treasury debt follows in second place, accounting for just over $7 billion.

Puckrin added that as stablecoins expand, more of their reserves sit in Treasury bills, which naturally increases demand for tokenized cash products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat comes next may include more exchanges and custodians adding RWA tokens to their collateral lists, the rate path (cuts may lower yields but could expand real-world use cases on-chain), and clearer rules for stablecoins and fund tokens\u2014opening the door for bigger treasuries, pensions, and corporates to step in,\u201d Puckrin said. <\/p>\n<h2>RWAs have moved beyond experimentation <\/h2>\n<p>Kony, CEO of GAIB, emphasized that RWAs are moving beyond experimentation and becoming a core part of decentralized finance (DeFi). <\/p>\n<p>He highlighted that while current growth is concentrated in tokenized Treasuries and credit markets, a new wave of tokenized infrastructure, including compute, energy, and other productive assets, is emerging. <\/p>\n<p>A <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thedefiant.io\/news\/research-and-opinion\/tokenized-assets-shift-from-wrappers-to-building-blocks-in-defi\" target=\"__blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer \">recent report from Dune and RWAxyz<\/a> asserts that RWAs are moving beyond digital versions of traditional securities to key building blocks of DeFi. It also noted that tokenization\u2019s \u201creal breakthrough\u201d is composability, or the ability to combine and reuse assets across different protocols.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Kony believes that this next phase will make RWAs not only about yield, \u201cbut also about financing the backbone of new and rapidly growing industries, such as AI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Matt Mudano, CEO of Arch Network, sees Bitcoin as the next frontier. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s where the largest pool of idle institutional liquidity sits, yet it still lacks safe, sustainable yield opportunities,\u201d Mudano said. \u201cIn DeFi, the competition for stablecoin yield is at an all-time high, while Bitcoin\u2014the most widely held reserve asset among companies and sovereigns\u2014has almost no access to equivalent products.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Private credit and U.S. Treasuries lead the surge as new products, stablecoin demand, and emerging tokenized infrastructure drive on-chain growth.
