Stellar (XLM), considered a strong competitor to XRP, has achieved a monumental milestone in the real-world asset tokenization market. The volume of real-world asset tokenization based on the Stellar network has shown steep growth, finally surpassing the $3 billion mark.

According to crypto media outlet U.Today on July 7 (local time), Stellar has recently demonstrated its unique presence in the real-world asset market, thanks to a large influx of capital from institutional investors seeking blockchain-based financial settlement solutions. Particularly in the U.S. Treasury tokenization sector, it has outpaced the growth of its competitor, XRP Ledger, by nearly $1 billion, leading the on-chain transition of traditional finance.

Behind this explosive growth lies strategic collaborations with global financial giants. Major Wall Street asset management firms such as Franklin Templeton, Ondo Finance, and WisdomTree have actively adopted the Stellar network for issuing tokenized products. Coupled with plans to integrate tokenization services with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), which handles trillions of dollars in assets, the pace of institutional capital inflow is accelerating.

Recent protocol upgrades and ecosystem expansion have also significantly lowered barriers to entry for institutions. By strengthening the Anchor Framework, Stellar has simplified complex regulatory compliance and asset issuance procedures, while expanding on-ramp channels for various fiat-backed tokens, including the US dollar-pegged stablecoin PYUSD. On-chain data indicates a steady increase in real-world asset-related transaction volumes, simultaneously boosting network utilization and token demand.

As the convergence of traditional financial infrastructure and blockchain accelerates, market expectations for Stellar's mid-to-long-term outlook are also rising. Industry experts evaluate Stellar's fast transaction speeds, low fees, and unique regulation-friendly compliance mechanisms as optimized for Wall Street-grade asset settlements. With the continued entry of large financial institutions, hundreds of billions of dollars worth of additional assets are expected to flow in.
