ChainCatcher report, according to ARKM Research data, the market size of real-world assets (RWA) on the Ethereum blockchain has surpassed $15 billion, accounting for 58% of the global RWA market, with growth primarily driven by tokenized gold. The current market size of tokenized gold exceeds $4 billion, with the two leading products being Tether Gold (XAUT) and Paxos Gold (PAXG). XAUT is backed by physical gold stored in Swiss vaults and holds the largest market capitalization among tokenized gold assets; PAXG is regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), with each token representing one troy ounce of physical gold. ARKM Research notes that tokenized gold combines the security of physical gold with the liquidity of digital assets, gradually moving beyond niche status and directly competing with mainstream crypto derivatives. Additionally, on-chain perpetual trading platforms for gold and silver have recently recorded record trading volumes.
