Tokenized Stocks Near $3 Billion as DeFi Fails to Keep Up

The tokenized stock market is rapidly growing, reaching nearly $3 billion in value, according to @Delphi_Digital. This surge highlights a budding market, but DeFi's adoption of these assets remains limited.

Securitize's SECZ is the largest individual tokenized stock, valued at over $1.8 billion. Despite this growth, only about $202 million has been deployed in various trading and lending pools on DeFi platforms, representing less than 7% of total tokenized stock value.

This discrepancy raises questions about how investors can actually use these assets once they are transferred to blockchain. The market has grown nearly tenfold since the start of 2025, indicating substantial room for growth in DeFi's utilization of tokenized stocks.
