Of the $1.001 billion, distributed assets make up $600.4 million, representing a 60% share. These assets include private equity ($55.2 million), U.S. treasury debt ($150.2 million), and stablecoins ($395 million).

The recent $1 billion milestone reflects the rapid expansion the XRPL has continued to record in the tokenization scene, which the BlackRock CEO Larry Fink calls “inevitable.”

For context, exactly a year ago, the XRPL only hosted $45.179 million worth of tokenized RWA. The current figure of $1.001 billion indicates that the blockchain’s RWA value has grown by $956.6 billion over the past year, as it sets itself up to benefit from the growing tokenization narrative. Recall that Bitwise suggested last year that buying XRP was one of the “cleanest” ways to invest in the future of tokenization.
