The Key Moments To Watch  In Real-World Asset Tokenization In Q4 2025

Real-world asset tokenization is at its peak, but the sky is the limit for this industry. What companies/projects are leading this charge, what new companies could announce a TGE event in the final months of 2025, and how will the tokenized RWA ecosystem transform by the end of the year?

The decentralized real-world assets (RWA) market is one of the fastest-growing industries in the DeFi space. In the past year, the total value locked (TVL) reached an all-time high of $13 billion on DeFi platforms, with the total market capitalization at $24 billion, a 380% growth since 2022. In addition, investors and venture capital firms are adding millions of dollars into the space, setting a clear bullish path for the industry in the coming months.  

The markets are expected to turn bullish at the tail end of 2025, according to analysts, and RWA tokenization projects could be one of the biggest beneficiaries of the predicted wave. In this article, we focus on the biggest drivers of the RWA tokenized market in 2025, both in the traditional finance space and the decentralized finance space. From the entry of Blackrock’s tokenized treasury fund to Mavryk Network’s $3 billion agreement with UAE companies, the industry is flourishing, and these are the top companies/projects leading the charge.

1. BlackRock’s entry into tokenized RWAs

One of the biggest stories in the RWA marketplace is the entry of BlackRock into the tokenization of real-world assets via its BUIDL tokenized Treasury fund. Since January 2025, the tokenized Treasury Fund has added over $2.4 billion – from $650 million to $2.9 billion – representing a 350% increase in eight months. 

The fund aims to connect RWAs with decentralized finance (DeFi), having announced a partnership with DeFi protocol Euler, launching sBUIDL, allowing holders of the staked BUIDL token to borrow USDC or AUSD stablecoins.

1. Mavryk Network Prepare For $MVRK token launch

Mavryk network is preparing for the $MVRK TGE event, following a successful ICO in May this year. $MVRK will be the native utility token for the blockchain, allowing users to participate in the ecosystem, including RWA tokenization, governance, and treasury functionalities. The token is expected to be the cornerstone of the $10 billion ecosystem and offer users a fast, secure and affordable medium to participate in the tokenization industry.

In a landmark deal in May this year, blockchain infrastructure provider Mavryk partnered with MultiBank Group, the world’s largest financial derivatives institution based in Dubai, and UAE-based real estate giant MAG to ink a $3 billion RWA tokenization agreement – the largest ever in the space. The deal fast-tracked the announcement of its token generation (TGE) event for the $MVRK token, with the pre-TGE accessible on QuestN and Galxe. 

1. RWA.io Eyeing A TGE Event In 2025?

Having launched the RWA.io Launchpad earlier this year, RWA.io announced its plans to launch its TGE too. The platform aims to connect startups in the RWA space with investors looking for early opportunities in the space. The platform’s official website points to an upcoming TGE, allowing early investors to get in at fixed prices before public trading begins.

RWA.io’s latest development, the Launchpad, is designed to be a central hub, connecting promising projects with investors who are looking for early opportunities in the RWA space. The native token will be used as transaction fees, incentivising users and on-chain governance of the platform. 

How The Tokenized RWA Ecosystem Could Shape Up In 2026

The coming year could be a critical step forward for the RWA tokenization industry. The nascent technology could unlock trillions in traditional assets, enhancing liquidity and accessibility and serve as the nexus between the two iterations of finance.

One key trend in 2025 is the entry of institutional players in the industry – a trend that will likely continue in 2026. Legacy finance companies (banks, hedge funds, and pension funds, are increasingly noticing the benefits of tokenisation, as witnessed with big players entering the market. In July, Goldman Sachs & BNY Mellon announced a partnership to tokenize money market fund shares through blockchain technology. As stated above, BlackRoack launched the BUIDL  Fund —an Ethereum-based tokenized fund tracking cash equivalents and U.S. Treasuries – and has $3 billion in its coffers. 

Additionally, the RWA tokenization ecosystem is becoming more interoperable, giving rise to multichain economies. According to a report by The Business Research Company, blockchain interoperability will witness a 29.3% CAGR for the next three years. This will allow for easy capital movement across the wider economy and open new economies in the RWA space in 2026. 

Conclusion

The final quarters of 2025 looks bullish in the coming months, as more traditional players enter the ecosystem. The upcoming TGE events from Mavryk and RWA.io, and the possibility of more players entering before year-end, the final quarter of 2025 could be pivotal. 

Understandably, institutions entering the field is positive for the industry with billions of dollars projected to enter the RWA tokenization market in 2026.
