Bitfinex report: tokenized commodity market value exceeds $7 billion, stablecoin infrastructure upgrade accelerates landing Odaily Planet Daily News: Bitfinex has released a report stating that tokenized commodities are moving from early experimentation to practical applications, becoming an important manifestation of the reconstruction of real-world assets (RWAs) on blockchain. Its core is not to create new demand, but to reshape existing market infrastructure. Data shows that the total market value of tokenized commodities has reached about 7 billion US dollars, an increase of nearly 600% since the beginning of 2025. The main participants currently include cryptocurrency native investors and high net worth individuals. Against the backdrop of intensified geopolitical volatility, tokenization is enhancing asset liquidity and risk management flexibility. Gold remains the main entry point, with Tether Gold holding nearly 40% of the market share. The report points out that on chain gold has characteristics such as real-time transfer and global auditability, making it more suitable as a collateral asset compared to physical assets, and can break through traditional transaction time and settlement limitations. In addition to gold, tokenized commodities have expanded to fields such as oil, natural gas, and agricultural products. The scale of soybeans and soybean oil is about 400 million US dollars each, and the exposure related to green financing is about 850 million US dollars, indicating that this model has the potential for cross category expansion. At the same time, the traceability of blockchain also enhances the transparency of the supply chain, meeting regulatory and ESG requirements. Bitfinex believes that in the future, the focus of tokenization will shift from precious metals to industrial products such as copper and oil. By improving collateral efficiency, asset circulation speed, and transparency, it will achieve a transition from "product innovation" to "market infrastructure upgrading".
