- Real-world assets surpassed $10 billion total value locked as per DefiLlama.
- The crypto market continues its dull performance with a 1.40% drop in the overall market cap.
Real-world assets (RWA) have shown exponential growth for the past few months. While the crypto market has already disappointed investors with no signs of a bull run, RWAs are growing steadily and silently. Despite the present dull market performance, real-world assets continue to grow recording new all-time highs.
The real-world asset category of crypto assets has now reached a $10 billion milestone, as per DefiLlama. At the time of reporting, RWAs are recording $10.194 billion in total value locked (TVL) with a 0.35% drop in the last 24 hours and a 3.89% rise in the last week.
Maker RWA, BlackRock’s BUIDL, Ethena USDtb, Ondo Finance, and Usual are the top five real-world assets that record a majority of TVL. Among these, Maker RWA, BlackRock BUIDL, and Ethena USDtb have recorded more than $1 billion worth of total value locked. The fact that USDtb showed a 1,177% growth in the past month is noteworthy.
Real World Assets Outperform Cryptocurrencies
The crypto market continues its weak performance as RWAs record all-time highs. While the overall market cap is standing at $2.75 trillion with a 1.40% daily drop, the crypto fear and greed index records 27, which is fear sentiment.
Bitcoin is trading trades at $83,437 with a 2.21% drop in the last 24 hours at press time. Second-largest cryptocurrency, Ether, fell back to the $1,900 price range after touching $2K yesterday. The crypto market is disappointing investors who anticipated a bull run in 2025.
After Donald Trump’s re-election in the US, the crypto market witnessed a short bull run by the end of 2024. With Trump’s pro-crypto stance and friendly crypto regulation policies, the crypto market assumed that it would record further gains in 2025. However, real-world assets are booming with their real-time cases with advanced technology like blockchain.
