Ethereum maintains its firm hold over the tokenized real-world asset scene while Solana builds real spot trading flows as the lone serious contender per the latest CoinShares and Token Terminal joint report 🖤. Other big chains like Arbitrum BNB Chain and Base still lack any notable RWA spot action even after years online.
Dominant Networks Prevail 🌙
Liquidity stays locked on these veteran ecosystems where issuers and market makers already enjoy live venues so newer chains now chase proven DeFi apps too.
RWA Borrowing Gains Momentum 🔮
Crypto-native trade volumes dropped sharply over the past year while RWA spot trade instead climbed about 220% year over year from a tiny base between Q2 2025 and Q2 2026 even as overall DEX spot volumes slid roughly 70% according to the data. Tokenized assets keep attracting flows on their own terms separate from wider market swings. Total DeFi deposits fell around 15% in the same stretch from withdrawals and softer prices yet RWA deposits on lending venues and decentralized exchanges more than tripled from $2.3 billion to $7.4 billion. This surge shows real utility demand for tokenized collateral rather than pure crypto hype. Ethereum still leads RWA-backed lending with nearly 70% of all such deposits sitting on its platforms making it the main on-chain collateral hub. Plasma sits second thanks to Aave pushing beyond Ethereum while Solana growth rides Kamino a homegrown lending app built for productive RWA uses.
