Tokenized Equities Soar 140% in 2026, Reaching Near $2 Billion

A new report from DeFiLlama reveals that tokenized equities have surged by over 140% in 2026, reaching nearly $2 billion in active market capitalization. This growth comes from a year that started with just $814 million at the beginning of the year.

The report evaluated leading tokenized equity platforms across various key areas, including brokerage integration, reserve verification, dividend treatment, settlement mechanisms, and trading infrastructure.

Bitget was found to have recorded the lowest median bid-ask spread at 0.83 basis points, while also having the deepest top-of-book liquidity across all five tokenized equity markets evaluated.
