Tokenized real-world assets are projected to reach $60 billion in 2026, according to a report released by blockchain oracle platform RedStone.

Summary

• RedStone’s report predicts substantial growth in tokenized assets.
• The trend is fueled by rising institutional interest in private credit, tokenized Treasuries, and equities.
• Private credit is projected to represent 45-50% of the tokenized asset market by 2026.

The market has experienced substantial growth since late 2023, with institutional interest increasing in on-chain private credit, tokenized Treasuries, and tokenized equities, the report stated.

Private credit currently represents the largest category within the tokenized asset sector and is expected to account for approximately 45-50% of the real-world asset market in 2026, according to RedStone’s analysis.

Tokenized equities are forecast to experience the fastest growth rate, with projections indicating 200-300% expansion following anticipated clarification of U.S. regulatory rules in mid-2026, the report said.

Tokenized Treasuries, including BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, are also expected to register strong growth, according to the findings.
