Tokenized Capital Proves More Resilient During Crypto Downturns
Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo explained in a recent podcast that what surprised him was not the growing interest in tokenization, but rather its resilience during crypto downturns. While some investors withdrew from crypto assets, they instead allocated more funds into real-world assets like Treasuries.
Securitize provides regulated token issuance and trading infrastructure, including transfer agency, broker-dealer, alternative trading systems, and fund administration. The company's revenue grew by 40% year-on-year to $19.5 million in the first quarter of this year.
The scale of tokenized asset management is expected to exceed $4 billion by mid-2026, with about 650 active funds. U.S. Treasury products once accounted for about 60% of demand, with BlackRock's tokenized Treasury fund being one of the flagship offerings.
