Aptos sees surge in tokenization as asset managers go onchain

Aptos’ tokenized economy is being fueled by issuers such as Berkeley Square, Franklin Templeton and BlackRock.

Real-world asset (RWA) tokenization on the Aptos blockchain has gained significant momentum in recent months, with the total value of onchain assets surpassing $540 million, driven by multiple deployments from traditional asset managers.

The value of RWA deployments on the Aptos network has grown by 57.1% over the past 30 days, reaching $542.3 million, according to RWA.xyz data. This surge places Aptos among the top three blockchains for RWA deployment, behind Ethereum and ZKsync Era.

The largest RWA issuers on Aptos are Berkeley Square of the PACT Consortium, BlackRock’s BUIDL, which expanded to Aptos last November, and Franklin Templeton’s BENJI token.
