Crypto's second fastest growing vertical. One of the few asset classes to grow during recent global turmoil. Today, Real-World Assets are worth over $24B. Tomorrow, they could be worth trillions. Introducing the Real-World Asset Report by RedStone, @gauntlet_xyz, and @RWA_xyz.

2/ The RWA market value soared from $5B to $24B in just 2.5 years, marking a 380% increase. As RWAs exploded in size, demand shifted from theory to execution. This is no longer a "what if" scenario. It's about what's next. Scroll on for highlights.

3/ This isn't just "more crypto." RWAs link on-chain finance to the $400T TradFi system, expanding the scope by 130x. Why now? The stack is finally ready. Years of regulatory progress, infrastructure maturity, and macroeconomic pressure have aligned. The pipeline is operational.

4/ Private credit is leading the charge with $14B tokenized so far. It’s the ideal testbed: high yield, historically illiquid, and ripe for distribution upgrades. Now it's programmable, accessible, and liquid. This is the RWA bull case. See @MarcinRedStone's takeaways:

5/ 2024 to 2025 marked a true inflection point. The RWA market cap grew 85% year-over-year, but more importantly, institutional use became tangible. In a historic first, a Wall Street fund embraced DeFi: Apollo's ADCF fund, tokenized by Securitize, was deployed in a live onchain application via $sACRED standard. Capital allocators can now tap into enhanced yield onchain through @gauntlet_xyz's levered RWA strategy, secured by @redstone_defi oracle price feeds, built around this very asset. That's the revolution.

6/ Why do institutions care? Enhanced risk-adjusted yields, accessible compliance, and composability. RedStone’s RWA price feeds enable platforms like Drift, Morpho, and Kamino to integrate tokenized assets with DeFi. Offchain finance simply lacks the on-chain flexibility.

7/ None of this works without infrastructure. RedStone, along with key partners like @Securitize, are developing an institutional-grade oracle layer that meets TradFi standards. Our custom RWA feeds provide secure, NAV-based pricing with the highest reliability.

8/ A huge thanks to the co-authors of this report, @gauntlet_xyz and @RWA_xyz, for their insights and collaboration.
