Standard Chartered: The RWA sector market cap could reach $2 trillion by 2028
BlockBeats News, October 30, Standard Chartered Bank released a report stating that as more global capital and payment activities migrate to more efficient blockchain networks, the cumulative value of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) could reach 2 trillion USD in the next three years.
The "trustless" structure of DeFi is expected to challenge the dominance of traditional financial systems (TradFi) controlled by centralized entities. Standard Chartered predicts that as the application of DeFi in payments and investments grows, the market capitalization of tokenized RWAs excluding stablecoins could reach 2 trillion USD by 2028. Of this 2 trillion USD, it is expected that:
750 billion USD will flow into money market funds
750 billion USD will flow into tokenized US stocks
250 billion USD will flow into tokenized US funds
Another 250 billion USD will flow into the "less liquid" portion of private equity, including commodities, corporate bonds, and tokenized real estate.
Currently, the cumulative value of RWAs is about 3.5 billion USD. If the market capitalization reaches 2 trillion USD, it would mean a growth of more than 57 times over the next three years.
