Citibank’s latest report on market trends, *Tokenization 2030: Wall Street On-Chain*, forecasts the tokenized real-world assets (RWA) market to grow from $1.7 billion today to $5.5 trillion by 2030. The market outlook suggests a potential range of $2.7 trillion to $8.2 trillion, depending on the pace of adoption. The report estimates that by 2030, 10% of the U.S. short-term Treasury market and 3% of the public equity market could be tokenized. Stablecoin growth could generate $1 trillion in new demand for U.S. Treasuries and $2.6 trillion in demand for digital stocks if 10% of U.S. retail investors migrate to digital platforms.

ChainCatcher reports that, in its newly released report, "Tokenization 2030: Wall Street On-Chain," Citigroup forecasts that the market size of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) will grow from the current approximately $17 billion to $5.5 trillion by 2030. Depending on varying adoption scenarios, the market size could range between $2.7 trillion and $8.2 trillion. The report anticipates that by 2030, approximately 10% of the U.S. short-term Treasury market and 3% of the public equity market will be tokenized. Additionally, the expansion of stablecoins could generate around $1 trillion in new demand for U.S. Treasuries; if 10% of U.S. retail investors shift to digital trading platforms, it could create approximately $2.6 trillion in demand for digital equities. Citigroup believes that as traditional financial assets gradually move on-chain, tokenization will serve as a vital bridge connecting Wall Street with blockchain infrastructure, driving the digital transformation of global capital markets.
