RedStone: The scale of RWA will reach $60 billion by 2026

ChainCatcher news, according to The Defiant, the decentralized oracle network RedStone reported that the RWA (Real World Assets) market size is expected to grow from the current $3.5 billion to $5 billion–$6 billion by 2026. This market has rapidly expanded from $500 million at the end of 2023.

Private credit is currently the largest category, with a scale of about $1.9 billion, and is expected to account for 45% to 50% of the RWA market next year. Tokenized government bonds currently stand at $840 million, including BlackRock’s $250 million BUIDL fund. Tokenized stocks are expected to grow the fastest, with a projected 200% to 300% increase once U.S. regulatory rules become clear in mid-2026.

RedStone co-founder Marcin Kazmierczak emphasized that this growth depends on reliable infrastructure, including asset net value calculation, liquidity adjustment, and compliance audit tracking.

The report also predicts that AI agents will become the main users of on-chain data, with the market size exceeding $1.5 billion. The total value locked in decentralized finance is expected to increase from the current $12.4 billion to $15 billion–$20 billion.
