Tokenization’s Momentum Builds Across the Board
The growing performance of these assets shows how tokenization is rapidly scaling beyond experimentation. With BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, PayPal’s PYUSD, and Tether’s gold-backed XAUT leading separate verticals, blockchain-based assets are increasingly bridging institutional finance and decentralized markets.
Industry analysts point out that this cross-sector adoption trend aligns with predictions that tokenized assets could exceed $16 trillion in value by 2030, as institutions seek efficiency and liquidity advantages unavailable in traditional markets.
