Stellar Overtakes Solana, Avalanche as Third-Largest Chain for Tokenized Assets

Stellar (XLM) has surpassed Solana, Avalanche, and Aptos to become the third-largest chain for tokenized Real-World Assets (RWAs), according to recent on-chain data. The network now holds $2.75 billion in RWAs, representing a four-fold increase since the start of the year.

This growth is driven by the rising trend of tokenization, which has seen a 79.8% increase in total value since the beginning of the year, reaching $28.67 billion. Stellar's RWA market has grown significantly due to its low-cost transactions, rapid settlements, and multichain interoperability.

The network is becoming a preferred ecosystem for powering regulated on-chain financial products, with tokenized private credit, money-market funds, U.S. treasuries, and other traditional assets on the rise. This has set Stellar apart from its rivals and attracted real-world asset issuers and customers.
