RWA Market Performance

As of November 25, 2025, the total on-chain value of RWA has risen to $36.01 billion, an increase of $340 million from $35.67 billion on November 19, representing a growth rate of approximately 0.95%. This marks a reversal from the slight pullback seen in the previous week, re-establishing an upward trend and breaking through the $36 billion threshold. The total number of asset holders increased from 539,895 to 549,443, with a significant weekly addition of 9,548 individuals, reflecting a growth rate of 1.77%, which is notably faster than last week. The number of asset issuers saw a slight adjustment, decreasing from 251 to 250, a reduction of one. In the stablecoin market, the total market capitalization rose moderately from $29.772 billion to $29.824 billion, an increase of $520 million, with a growth rate of 0.17%. The number of stablecoin holders steadily surpassed the 204 million mark, rising from 203.30 million to 204.33 million, an increase of approximately 1.03 million, with a growth rate of 0.51%. The underlying liquidity foundation remains solid.

In terms of asset structure, private credit maintained its position at $18.9 billion this week, unchanged from the previous week, demonstrating strong stability as a cornerstone sector of RWA, unaffected by market fluctuations. In stark contrast, the U.S. Treasury segment showed robust growth, with its scale rapidly climbing from $8.4 billion to $9.1 billion, a net increase of $700 million in a single week, representing a growth rate of 8.3%, making it the core driver of total market capitalization growth this week. Institutional alternative funds saw a slight recovery, increasing from $2.9 billion to $3 billion. Commodity assets continued to remain quiet, holding steady at the $3 billion level, appearing relatively stable amid significant market volatility. Notably, the non-U.S. government debt segment experienced a significant contraction, dropping sharply from $1.2 billion to $638.3 million, nearly halving.

Trend Analysis (Comparison with Last Week)

This week, the RWA market concluded a brief period of consolidation, establishing a rebound trend driven by strong inflows into U.S. Treasury assets, presenting an overall positive pattern of "U.S. Treasuries leading, credit stabilizing." The user growth rate accelerated significantly compared to last week, with nearly 10,000 new token holders indicating a resurgence in market attention, and incremental funds beginning to convert into actual on-chain asset holdings. The flow of funds exhibited a pronounced structural rotation characteristic: funds seem to be rapidly withdrawing from marginal assets like non-U.S. government debt, concentrating instead on more liquid and widely accepted U.S. Treasury assets, leading to a significant increase in the proportion of U.S. Treasuries. Private credit, as a ballast for existing holdings, maintained extremely high stickiness, while the steady expansion of stablecoins also provided ample ammunition for further asset scale advancement.

Market keywords: rebound, rotation, U.S. Treasuries leading.

Jamie Selway, Director of Trading and Markets at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, stated at the SIFMA Market Structure Conference that although crypto assets are built on a "trustless" decentralized mechanism, healthy trading still relies on a "trust-based" market structure.

Ethereum Co-founder, Sharplink Chairman: Increasing Institutional Holdings in Sharplink, Data Delays Affecting Market Confidence, Tokenized Stocks May Bring Change

In response to Sharplink CIO Matt Sheffield's mention that "13F filings (disclosure documents for large asset management institutions) are typically submitted within 45 days after the end of each quarter, leading to market data often being delayed," Ethereum co-founder, Consensys founder, and Sharplink Chairman Joseph Lubin expressed agreement on X platform. He noted, "Recent filing disclosures show a clear trend: institutions are continuously increasing their holdings in @SharpLink stocks. Even as stocks and the crypto market adapt to the current macro environment, holding data still indicates that institutional confidence is growing. Delayed disclosures make this easily overlooked; another reason is that tokenized stocks will ultimately provide clearer real-time transparency."
