Nearly half of $60B tokenized asset market shows no on-chain activity

An analysis of the $60 billion real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market found that assets worth $32.9 billion, or about 56%, showed no weekly transfer activity, according to a report by BeInCrypto. In its 'The State of Tokenization in 2026' report, the outlet noted that while the market is growing rapidly, actual on-chain activity remains minimal. The investigation found that out of 1,289 tokenized assets valued at over $100,000 each, 910 had not a single weekly transfer. In contrast, only 379 assets showed weekly transfers, with a total transaction volume of $26.2 billion. However, the report clarified that low trading activity does not necessarily signify market failure, as some products are not designed for secondary market trading. It added that infrastructure expansion is needed to increase on-chain activity.
