Advances in Blockchain Infrastructure
The blockchain space has seen major strides in scalability, interoperability, and security, breaking down adoption barriers for both permissioned and permissionless networks. With new Software Development Kits (SDKs) and tokenization standards, businesses and developers can more easily tokenize real-world assets, from commodities to real estate and financial instruments.

Major players in traditional finance, including Euroclear, DTCC, and Clearstream, have launched pilot tokenization projects, highlighting blockchain’s growing mainstream acceptance.
Current Infrastructure vs. Market Adoption
According to the report, blockchain infrastructure is progressing faster than market adoption. While the tools to fractionalize assets and bring them on-chain are available, many sectors still lack liquid markets for tokenized assets. The primary challenges are building demand, creating user-friendly applications, and educating users to drive adoption.
Government Securities
Government securities, like sovereign debt, are typically low-risk investments favored by large institutions. Tokenization, however, is democratizing access, allowing smaller investors to participate. Tren Finance notes that tokenized government securities held approximately $2 billion in assets under management as of mid-2024. Although still a fraction of the traditional market’s trillions, this emerging market signals a promising start, with platforms like Ondo Finance leading in securities tokenization.
Stablecoins
Stablecoins have transformed the financial landscape, powering DeFi, trading, and global remittances. Since the launch of the first stablecoin in 2014, the sector has grown exponentially, with Tether’s USDT currently holding nearly 70% of the market. Between mid-2023 and mid-2024 alone, stablecoins facilitated over $1.6 trillion in transactions, capturing the attention of businesses and regulators alike. Looking forward, stablecoins are poised to evolve with identity-based tokens for personal use, while competition between USDC and USDT remains strong.
Commodity Tokenization
The tokenization of commodities, such as gold and silver, has expanded access to these assets. Industry leaders like Tether and Paxos have led recent market growth. However, challenges persist, primarily due to regulatory and legal complexities, along with limited liquidity and market depth. The tokenized commodities market is still maturing, but it holds the potential to transform trading in physical assets.
Real Estate
Tokenization is also reshaping real estate by making fractional ownership possible, breaking down high entry costs and enhancing market transparency. Blockchain enables property rights to be digitized, creating smaller, affordable units that allow investors to participate in real estate without large upfront investments. Despite these benefits, the real estate sector faces hurdles, including the need for increased awareness in traditional markets and solutions to potential technical issues. Nevertheless, tokenization could pave the way for new opportunities in real estate investment.
Future Outlook
Asset tokenization continues to open up significant possibilities across multiple sectors, but ongoing education, regulatory clarity, and liquid markets will be critical for widespread adoption. As tokenization matures, it could bridge traditional finance with digital assets, setting a new standard for accessibility and efficiency.
