Algorand Leads Tokenized Stock Surge with 66% Market Share
Investor demand for tokenized stocks is booming, with Algorand now holding most of the market. Yet rising competition from Ethereum and Base may soon shift the balance.
Exchanges like Robinhood and Gemini recently launched tokenized stocks, sparking investor interest in this new type of asset. Against this backdrop, the blockchain chosen by issuers could become a fresh opportunity for investors.
Right now, Algorand dominates the space. However, the picture of market share in tokenized stocks could change significantly if this trend keeps gaining momentum.
Algorand Holds Over 66% of The Tokenized Stock Market Share
According to data from RWA.xyz, the market cap of tokenized stocks increased by 19% over the past month, reaching more than $400 million.
Remarkably, holders surged by 1,845%, rising to over 48,000. Monthly active addresses soared by over 8,800%, reaching almost 38,000. This data shows growing interest from the investor community.

It appears Algorand commands over 66% of the market share, with a total value of more than $268 million. This confirms its position as the leading network in this emerging trend.

This Layer 1 network could gain a first-mover advantage by capturing market share early. Other institutions might consider Algorand as one of the first options.
“We heard that 2025 will be the year of tokenized stocks. Algorand is already winning in this vertical. The future on other chains is often the present on Algorand,” the Algorand Foundation declared.
Yet, if we look deeper into the data, Algorand hosts only one RWA asset, similar to XRP Ledger. Meanwhile, other chains like Base, Ethereum, and Arbitrum support over 90 assets.
That single asset is EXOD stock from Exodus, provided by Securitize, and it has been tokenized on Algorand since mid-2024. At the time, this marked an important milestone, showing the integration of blockchain technology with traditional finance (TradFi).
However, since then, this chain has not tokenized new assets. Currently, the market cap of tokenized EXOD stock accounts for 77% of the entire tokenized stock market. This reveals that the tokenized stock space remains in its early stages and lacks diversity.
Experts predict that the trend of tokenizing stocks will grow rapidly, and the market share could shift quickly.
“Every stock, every bond, every fund, every asset—can be tokenized. If they are, it will revolutionize investing,” Larry Fink, Chairman of BlackRock, said.
Other networks like Ethereum and Layer-2 solutions such as Polygon and Base are actively expanding their reach. Although the market cap of tokenized stocks on these chains isn’t as large as Algorand’s, the data shows they’re growing much faster, between 12% and 44%.
This raises questions about whether Algorand can keep its leading position as competition intensifies.

Goldman Sachs believes that the AI investment cycle is currently in the "trough of disillusionment," but this is not the first time. The core contradiction lies in the fact that the business models of new cloud computing providers are highly dependent on end-user returns from AI spending, while currently "there are basically zero companies that can attribute profits to AI." Social Capital founder Palihapitiya has clearly defined an 18-month key window, during which the market will decide which AI business models are sustainable and which are not.
Anthropic's Core Concern: Revenue Can Be Withdrawn at Any Time, but Computing Power Costs Are Locked in for up to 20 Years
Zheshang Securities believes that Anthropic's revenue is mainly based on usage-based billing, with remaining performance obligations covering only about 5.1 months of annualized revenue, while compute power costs are already locked in with $895.4 billion in irrevocable commitments, some extending as far as 2045. Revenues can be reduced at any time, but costs are non-exitable, creating a highly asymmetric maturity gap between the two—this is the company's real core constraint.
Triple Pressure from the Federal Reserve, Treasury, and Congress; Goldman Sachs: Liquidity Crisis May Occur in 2027
Goldman Sachs warns that the reserve ratio of bank assets has dropped to around 11%, only slightly above the crisis trough of 2019. In the second half of 2027, a deadlock in debt ceiling negotiations will force the Treasury to rebuild the TGA, triggering a "perfect storm" of a sharp drop in reserves and a surge in T-bill supply; combined with stalled money market fund buying, this will create a huge liquidity black hole. The Federal Reserve could be forced into the awkward position of lowering interest rates and launching large-scale bond purchases to rescue the market.
