Stellar tokenized RWA market more than quadruples to nearly $4B
The value of tokenized real-world assets on the Stellar blockchain has surged approximately 360% in 2026, reaching nearly $4 billion from $868.8 million at the end of the previous year. This growth is driven by a diverse range of assets, including U.S. Treasurys, private and public credit, and non-U.S. government debt. Major issuers such as Spiko, Realiz, Tradable, Franklin Templeton, and Ondo dominate the ecosystem, with Spiko alone accounting for $1.55 billion. Stellar has notably expanded its footprint in non-U.S. government debt, hosting tokenized Mexican CETES and Brazilian bonds via Etherfuse. Institutional interest remains high, evidenced by the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation's plan to connect its tokenization service to Stellar by 2027. Furthermore, Tradable has committed to bringing up to $1 billion in private credit assets to the network to enhance compliance and lifecycle management. This rapid expansion underscores Stellar's increasing utility as a preferred infrastructure for institutional-grade financial products and global payment solutions.
