Institutional Real-World Asset Tokenization Expands to Public Blockchains

Where things stand · updated 55m ago

Traditional financial market infrastructure and onchain protocols are rapidly scaling institutional real-world asset (RWA) offerings, with Solana emerging as a key settlement layer for tokenized securities.

Where things stand

The tokenized equities and non-stablecoin RWA sectors are registering broad distribution gains. Ondo Finance ranks as the top RWA platform with more than $4 billion in tokenized assets, serving over 565,000 holders across 10 blockchains [1]. In the third quarter of 2026, holders of tokenized stocks on Solana increased 269% to pass one million wallets, lifting the network's RWA base to $4.5 billion despite a 43% contraction in spot trading volume [5]. Compliance infrastructure is adapting in parallel; StarCompliance integrated RWA.xyz data to track onchain securities across an equity sector that reached $3.5 billion [3].

Why it matters

Regulated market participants are moving beyond closed pilots into public Layer-1 ecosystems. Formation Securities filed an SEC notice under the agency's Innovation Exemption to deploy an automated market maker for round-the-clock trading of tokenized shares including Galaxy Digital, Exodus, and Forward Industries [2]. Post-trade clearing powerhouse DTCC plans to link its tokenization service to Solana to bring DTC-custodied securities onchain [4].

What happens next

Formation Securities targets an early 2027 rollout for its tokenized equities AMM [2]. DTCC is scheduled to introduce its DTC-custodied tokenization pipeline on Solana in late 2027 [4].
