According to Odaily, the cryptocurrency industry is advancing the role of 'on-chain dollars' as stablecoins are expected to validate product market fit by 2025. This involves tokenizing assets such as stocks, ETFs, money market funds, and gold to serve as tradable on-chain financial modules. Industry executives anticipate the tokenized asset market could expand to approximately $400 billion by 2026.
Samir Kerbage, Chief Investment Officer at Hashdex, noted that the current tokenized asset market is valued at around $36 billion. He emphasized that future growth will be driven by structural changes in value transfer methods rather than speculative demand. Kerbage highlighted that once stablecoins mature as 'on-chain cash,' funds will naturally flow into investable assets, bridging digital currency and digital capital markets.
The report indicates that by 2025, the tokenized asset market will have reached nearly $20 billion, with traditional financial institutions like BlackRock, JPMorgan, and BNY Mellon deeply involved. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino believes 2026 will be pivotal for banks transitioning from pilot programs to actual deployments, particularly in emerging markets where tokenization can help issuers bypass traditional infrastructure limitations.
Furthermore, Centrifuge COO JΓΌrgen Blumberg predicts that by the end of 2026, the locked value of on-chain real-world assets (RWA) could exceed $100 billion, with more than half of the world's top 20 asset management firms launching tokenized products. Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo suggests that native tokenized stocks and ETFs will gradually replace synthetic asset models and become significant high-quality collateral in DeFi.
CoinDesk asserts that legal clarity, cross-chain interoperability, and a unified identity system remain crucial prerequisites for the expansion of the tokenized market. However, industry consensus has shifted from questioning whether to go on-chain to focusing on the scale and speed of on-chain integration.#TokenizedAssets #Stablecoins #Cryptocurrency #DigitalCurrency #OnChain #AssetTokenization #FinancialMarkets #DeFi #Blockchain #ETF #Stocks #Gold #Investment #TraditionalFinance #JPMorgan #BlackRock #BNYMellon #EmergingMarkets #RWA #Securitize #CrossChain #LegalClarity

According to PANews, the report anticipates the market could reach 1.1 trillion euros, a significant increase from the 650 million euros projected by the end of 2025. In a baseline scenario, S&P expects the market to grow to 570 billion euros, representing 2.2% of the total bank deposits in the eurozone.

ETHZilla is accelerating its asset tokenization efforts by acquiring a portfolio of 95 manufactured and modular home loans for $4.7 million. According to Odaily, the company plans to tokenize these loans on the Ethereum Layer-2 network and issue cash flow digital tokens to investors through the regulated trading platform Liquidity.io. The loan portfolio is secured by first lien mortgages and is expected to yield an annualized return of approximately 10%. McAndrew Rudisill, Chairman and CEO of ETHZilla, stated that this transaction is a natural extension of the company's tokenization strategy, highlighting the stable cash flow and strong collateral of manufactured home loans as ideal for tokenization within a regulated and transparent framework.
ETHZilla's move comes after a significant decline in its core crypto assets, with the company's stock price having dropped over 90% from its August 2025 peak of $107. Last year, ETHZilla sold more than $110 million in ETH to fund stock buybacks and debt repayment. The company has also invested in manufactured home loan company Zippy and acquired two jet engines for tokenization, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to diversifying physical asset tokenization.#ETHZilla #AssetTokenization #EthereumLayer2 #ManufacturedHomeLoans #TokenizationStrategy #LiquidityIO #CryptoAssets #DebtRepayment #Diversification #CashFlowDigitalTokens #RegulatedTrading #JetEngines #Zippy #FinancialInnovation #MortgageBacked #Investment

π BlackRock CEO Advocates for Asset Tokenization to Reduce Costs
#BlackRock #AssetTokenization #DigitalAssets #FinancialInnovation #InvestmentEfficiency #DigitalWallets #Blockchain #FrictionlessFinance #TokenizedAssets #FinancialTechnology
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink highlighted the inefficiencies in the financial services sector on March 6, emphasizing the presence of numerous intermediaries and lengthy settlement processes. According to BlockBeats, Fink suggested that digitizing all assets and enabling seamless transitions from cash or stablecoins in digital wallets to stocks or bonds could significantly reduce friction and transaction costs.
Currently, there is $4.1 trillion in global digital wallets. To invest in bonds, stocks, or real estate, funds must be transferred from digital to traditional wallets, incurring various commissions and fees.
The concept of tokenizing all assets, including real estate, aims to substantially lower these friction costs, making investments easier and more straightforward. This would facilitate a more fluid investment process.#BlackRock #AssetTokenization #DigitalAssets #FinancialInnovation #InvestmentEfficiency #DigitalWallets #Blockchain #FrictionlessFinance #TokenizedAssets #FinancialTechnology
π SEC Commissioner Encourages Dialogue on Asset Tokenization and Innovative Financial Products
#SEC #AssetTokenization #FinancialInnovation #CryptoAssets #Blockchain #ETFs #Regulation #InvestmentProducts #Leverage #SecuritiesLaw
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is open to companies exploring asset tokenization and new trading product structures, according to Commissioner Hester Peirce. She emphasized the importance of direct communication with the SEC for firms developing innovative financial products, including tokenized financial instruments.
In an interview with CNBC's 'The Exchange,' Peirce stated that as the market matures, the SEC is keen to collaborate with the industry to test the demand for these new products. She highlighted that many asset management firms are currently exploring ways to integrate crypto assets or blockchain securities into traditional investment tools, such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Peirce also addressed the SEC's recent focus on high-leverage ETFs, clarifying that the SEC does not make value judgments on whether a product is a good investment. Instead, the agency ensures compliance with relevant laws and adequate risk disclosure.
She noted that existing regulations impose certain limits on fund leverage levels. However, issuers may propose different designs if they can demonstrate compliance with the securities law framework. With some institutions attempting to launch ETFs with leverage exceeding three times, regulatory attention in this area is increasing.#SEC #AssetTokenization #FinancialInnovation #CryptoAssets #Blockchain #ETFs #Regulation #InvestmentProducts #Leverage #SecuritiesLaw
