Tokenized stocks: explosive growth in holders and transfer volumes
The market for tokenized stocks is showing impressive momentum: over the past month, the number of addresses holding such digital instruments has grown by 124%, reaching 1.31 million. This is not just a statistical spike, but a clear signal of growing interest from institutional and retail investors in real-world assets (RWA) on the blockchain.
Particularly telling is the growth in transfer volume: over 30 days, it increased by nearly 180%, reaching $23.13 billion. At the same time, the number of active addresses rose by 34.6% — to 572,000. This dynamic indicates that the market is not only expanding through new participants, but is also becoming more liquid and operationally intensive.
The total distributed value of digitized securities added 5.9%, reaching $2.38 billion. This is moderate but steady growth in market capitalization, which correlates with the increase in the number of holders and transaction volume. In my analysis, this points to the formation of a mature ecosystem where tokenized stocks are ceasing to be a niche experiment and are turning into a full-fledged asset class.
It is important to note that the current growth rate in the number of holders is almost twice that of value growth, which may indicate a speculative component, but also real adoption of the technology in traditional financial processes. If this trend persists, we may see further market consolidation and the arrival of major issuers, which will strengthen confidence in the instrument.
My forecast: in the coming quarters, we will witness intensified competition among platforms for liquidity, which will lead to lower fees and improved user experience. This, in turn, will drive new waves of institutional capital into the RWA segment.
