Chalom projected the stablecoin market to reach $500 billion by year-end 2026, tokenized RWA to hit $300 billion, and tokenized asset management to expand tenfold, moving from individual fund tokenization to full portfolio tokenization. He also noted that sovereign wealth funds' ETH holdings and tokenization scale could grow 5–10 times.
