The scale of RWA on the Ethereum chain has surpassed 15 billion USD, with tokenized gold contributing over 4 billion USD
According to ARKM Research data, the market size of real-world assets (RWA) on the Ethereum chain has surpassed $15 billion, accounting for 58% of the global RWA market, with growth primarily driven by tokenized gold.
Currently, the market size of tokenized gold exceeds $4 billion, with the two major products being Tether Gold (XAUT) and Paxos Gold (PAXG). Among them, XAUT is backed by physical gold stored in Swiss vaults and ranks first in market capitalization for tokenized gold; PAXG is regulated by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), with each token corresponding to one troy ounce of physical gold.
ARKM Research points out that tokenized gold combines the safety of physical gold with the liquidity of digital assets, gradually moving away from its niche status to compete directly with mainstream crypto derivatives. In addition, the trading platform for perpetual contracts of gold and silver on-chain has also recently recorded record trading volumes.
