Almost all the data confirms it: the crypto market has been slowing down for a few weeks now. Analysts nevertheless shed light on a striking fact: tokenized real assets seem to be making progress. A dynamic that shows a strategic reallocation of capital within the crypto ecosystem. We'll tell you more in the paragraphs that follow.
In brief
- Tokenized Treasurys have gained $1.9 billion since January 2026 despite the decline in the crypto market.
- Institutional tokenization is progressing with BlackRock and DTCC, strengthening the convergence between traditional finance and crypto.
More than a billion dollars injected in 2026
It may well be that some predictions about tokenized real assets have proven correct. According to the data, the capitalization of tokenized US Treasurys stands at $8.9 billion as of January 1, 2026. At the time of writing, it stands at $10.8 billion.
Concretely, this represents:
- +1.9 billion dollars in less than two months;

That's not all! The figures also reveal a broader dynamic: the tokenized Treasury market has increased 50-fold since 2024. The segment was worth less than $4 billion at the start of 2025.

According to the dataone actor plays a key role in this expansion. This is the BlackRock tokenized fund : the USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL). The latter now has a capitalization of more than $1.2 billion.

This news is of particular importance as DTCC represents a major weight in global finance. It processed $3.7 quadrillion in volume in 2024.
