A massive chunk of the world’s wealth lies trapped in illiquid assets. Illiquid assets usually trade at discounts and suffer from lower trading volumes and poor price discovery mechanisms. Real-world asset tokenization turns the tide by introducing enhanced liquidity, better price discovery, fractional ownership, and global accessibility. BCG predicts the total illiquid asset tokenization size will reach $16 trillion by 2030.
The report also mentions a forecast, demonstrating a tokenization potential of $68 trillion by 2030 in the best-case scenario.
Given the immense potential, digital asset exchange for tokenized RWAs is emerging as a goldmine business opportunity. Tokenized RWAs represent real-world assets such as real estate properties, art, collectibles, intellectual properties, or commodities on a blockchain. By building digital exchange platforms that allow trading and investment in these assets, businesses can tap into the burgeoning RWA tokenization market.
