Tokenization Beyond Stablecoins: The Rise of Real-World Assets in 2025

Thu Jun 26 2025
Standard Chartered says tokenized credit, real estate, and private equity are the next big thing. Platforms like TokenFi are making it real.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ Beyond Stablecoins: The Tokenization Revolution Has Only Just Begun

Stablecoins got us started. Now the real-world stuff is coming onchain. From private equity to coffee-backed loans โ€” tokenization is moving beyond USDT and straight into the broken guts of TradFi.


๐Ÿ’ธ Stablecoins? Just the Beginning

Stablecoins dominate tokenization today โ€” but theyโ€™re just the appetizer.

According to a new report from Standard Chartered, the real game is non-stablecoin real-world assets (RWAs):

  • ๐Ÿ  Real estate
  • ๐Ÿ›ข๏ธ Commodities
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Private credit & equity

๐Ÿ’ฅ 23B tokenized already โ€” still 10x smaller than stablecoins, but growing fast.

Why? Because thatโ€™s where the pain is.


๐Ÿ”ฅ Tokenize Whatโ€™s Broken

Not everything needs to be onchain. U.S. equities? Already liquid. Already cheap. No need.

Butโ€ฆ

  • Private equity with million-dollar minimums?
  • Real estate with endless middlemen?
  • Credit markets with slow, paper-heavy origination?

Tokenization fixes that.

According to Standard Charteredโ€™s Geoff Kendrick:

โ€œThe real opportunity lies in on-chain versions of off-chain assets that are cheaper, faster, and more useful.โ€


๐Ÿง  The Case for Non-Stablecoin RWAs

Hereโ€™s what tokenization unlocks:

  • โšก Instant settlement โ€” seconds, not weeks
  • ๐ŸŒ Global access โ€” no matter where you live
  • ๐Ÿงพ On-chain transparency โ€” audit-friendly, fraud-resistant
  • ๐Ÿ’ธ Lower costs โ€” no armies of intermediaries

This isnโ€™t hype โ€” itโ€™s infrastructure.


๐ŸŒช๏ธ Why Now? Perfect Storm in 2025

Three macro tailwinds are turning RWAs into the next crypto mega trend:

  1. ๐Ÿ“œ Regulation: Singapore, Switzerland, the EU, Jersey โ€” all rolling out legal frameworks
  2. โš™๏ธ Tech maturity: Platforms like TokenFi RWA simplify launches
  3. ๐Ÿ’ฐ Yield hunger: In a 5% interest rate world, investors want real income โ€” and tokenized credit can offer 6โ€“10% APY

๐ŸŒ Real Use Cases That Donโ€™t Suck

This is already happening:

  • ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ช A Kenyan coffee importer uses tokenized sugar contracts to get a DeFi loan โ€” in hours
  • ๐Ÿข A European fund issues tokenized real estate shares, with automated rent payouts
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ A retail investor buys 1K of private equity on their phone โ€” no gatekeepers, no paperwork

This isnโ€™t vaporware. Itโ€™s deployment time.


๐Ÿš€ TokenFi RWA: The No-Code Tokenization Engine

Forget building from scratch. TokenFi RWA gives asset owners a full-stack launchpad for:

  • ๐Ÿ˜๏ธ Real estate
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Private equity
  • ๐Ÿ’ณ Credit
  • ๐Ÿ›ข๏ธ Commodities

And itโ€™s compliant out of the box:

  • ๐Ÿง KYC/AML built in
  • ๐Ÿงฉ ERC-3643 identity-based tokens
  • ๐Ÿ” Transfer restrictions based on investor identity & jurisdiction

Bonus: TOKEN is deflationary โ€” fee-to-burn.

TokenFiโ€™s liquidity toolkit includes:

  • ๐Ÿš€ Token launches
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Peer-to-peer markets
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Exchange integrations

๐Ÿงญ The Road Ahead: TradFi Meets Onchain

This isnโ€™t about whatโ€™s trendy. This is about Wall Street finally colliding with blockchains:

  • ๐Ÿฆ JPMorgan, BlackRock, Franklin Templeton? Already deploying tokenized products
  • ๐Ÿ“œ MiCA & global regulation catching up
  • ๐Ÿงฐ Infrastructure like TokenFi making it easy for everyone

Stablecoins were the start. RWAs are the main event.


โšก TL;DR

๐Ÿ’ฅ Standard Chartered: real growth is in tokenized private equity, credit, real estate ๐Ÿ’ธ Stablecoins โ‰  full potential of tokenization ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Platforms like TokenFi RWA make it easy to launch compliant digital assets ๐ŸŒ Global access, fast settlement, real yield โ€” thatโ€™s the unlock ๐Ÿ›๏ธ TradFi giants are already in โ€” and the future is programmable Welcome to Tokenization 2.0 โ€” less hype, more substance.
