Coin Metrics - Real World Assets (RWAs) & Tokenization
Get the best data-driven crypto insights and analysis every week: Real World Assets (RWAs) & TokenizationBy: Matías Andrade, Tanay Ved, Cooper Duschang IntroductionReal-world asset (RWA) tokenization represents a significant step forward in the evolution of financial markets, bridging the gap between traditional finance and the world of digital assets. While blockchains and cryptocurrencies have garnered significant attention for their potential to revolutionize various aspects of the financial system, skeptics have often pointed out that many digital assets lack intrinsic value or connection to real-world economic activities. Tokenization of RWAs addresses this concern by creating a tangible link between on-chain infrastructure and off-chain assets, unlocking new efficiencies and opportunities in how we manage and trade these valuable assets. While still in its early stages, we’ve seen an acceleration in interest, with major financial institutions and crypto-native protocols entering the space in tandem.
