Stellar RWA market value approaches $4 billion, surging 360% year-to-date

ChainCatcher report, according to Cointelegraph, the market capitalization of tokenized real-world assets (RWA) on the Stellar network is projected to grow by approximately 360% in 2026, rising from $8.688 billion at the end of last year to nearly $4 billion. A Dune Analytics dashboard maintained by Stellar shows that as of August 29, the network’s RWA market cap reached $3.996 billion, encompassing asset classes such as U.S. Treasuries, private and public credit, and non-U.S. government debt. Issuer concentration remains high, with Spiko leading at $1.55 billion, followed by Realiz ($559 million), Tradable ($548 million), Franklin Templeton ($546 million), and Ondo ($535 million). Stellar has also made inroads in non-U.S. government debt; according to RWA.xyz data cited by the Stellar Development Foundation, as of August 20, the network held approximately $490 million in such assets, including tokenized Mexican CETES and Brazilian government bonds issued via Etherfuse. Institutional adoption continues to drive growth. In May, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) announced plans to integrate its tokenization services with Stellar, with DTC tokenized assets expected to launch in the first half of 2027 and potentially support tokenized U.S. Treasuries, major index ETFs, and Russell 1000 constituents. In July, Tradable announced plans to bring up to $1 billion in private credit assets onto Stellar.
