Solana is now stepping into the big leagues, tokenizing real-world assets.
Earlier this year, Solana’s on-chain Real World Assets, or RWA if you wanna drop the lingo, hit a smashing $500 million milestone.
That’s real money, real trust, parked right on its blockchain.

Blockchain efficiency
Now, Solana’s sitting pretty at sixth place in the RWA sector, with a neat 3% slice of the market.
Ethereum’s still the reigning champ with $8.16 billion locked up, but Solana’s plays say it’s no longer just a rookie on the block.
Galaxy Digital just made history by tokenizing 32,000 of its Class A shares on Solana. Real shares, living on-chain, accessible 24/7.

Imagine trading your stocks any time, no market close, no middleman, just pure blockchain efficiency. This is the first time a U.S. public company took equity fully on-chain like this.
Tokenized public equities
Why’s it a big deal? Because the old stock market, as fancy as it is, can’t match the liquidity and round-the-clock action blockchain offers.
Nearly 88% of Solana’s 67,559 RWA holders are in tokenized public equities. This shows the market’s leaning hard into tokenized shares as the main event in Solana’s RWA story.
But don’t stop there. Galaxy Digital’s move signals a deeper trend toward DeFi. In 2025, DeFi has surged up 44%, outpacing RWAs.
Ethereum still holds the crown with nearly 60% market share and almost 92 billion dollars locked, but Galaxy choosing Solana?
That’s a loud, clear sign Solana’s on-chain rails are gaining punch for tokenized assets.
The next Wall Street?
Solana’s playing a pivotal role in bridging traditional finance with the DeFi disruption.
Stablecoin IPOs, tokenized shares, and skyrocketing RWAs show Solana is aiming to handle crypto toys, but it’s also gunning for Wall Street’s throne in the blockchain race.
So, next time you think about blockchain, think bigger. Solana is positioning itself as the future’s Wall Street, fast, open, and ready to change the rules of the financial game.
