RWA Deposits Surge to $7.4 Billion on DeFi Platforms
RWA deposits on DeFi platforms surged to $7.4 billion in Q2 2026, more than tripling from the same period last year.
This growth stands out against a broader decline in DeFi ecosystem activity, with total DeFi deposits falling approximately 15%.
CoinShares' CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti attributed this divergence to sector maturity, saying 'demand is being driven by financial utility, not market cycles.'
The report highlights the increasing adoption of tokenized real-world assets as collateral, yield-generating instruments, and trading products in onchain markets.
