Stellar (XLM) is gaining ground in the real-world asset (RWA) sector after recording the largest increase in tokenized fund market capitalization among major blockchain networks. Data from Token Terminal, published by the RWA Foundation, shows that Stellar added $44.9 million over the 24 hours leading up to November 13, outperforming both Solana and Ethereum.

The figures reinforce Stellar’s position as an increasingly relevant infrastructure provider for traditional financial institutions exploring blockchain-based investment products. With established financial companies already operating on its network, Stellar is expanding its presence in the growing tokenization market.

Stellar Leads Solana and Ethereum in Tokenized Fund Growth

During the reported 24-hour period, Solana added $29 million in tokenized fund market capitalization, while Ethereum recorded an increase of $10.8 million. zkSync Era followed with $3.5 million. Stellar’s $44.9 million increase exceeded the combined growth recorded by Solana and Ethereum.

Although Ethereum remains the largest blockchain for tokenized funds, Stellar currently holds the second position, according to Token Terminal. Data from rwa.xyz places Stellar’s RWA market capitalization at approximately $4.67 billion, nearly six times higher than its level one year earlier.

This growth reflects the network’s focus on financial applications, particularly tokenized securities, money market funds and cross-border payments.

Stellar offers transaction settlement in approximately three to five seconds, with fees that generally represent fractions of a cent. Its infrastructure also includes built-in compliance features that allow asset issuers to manage investor eligibility, freeze accounts and recover certain assets when required. These capabilities make the network particularly relevant for institutions seeking regulatory controls alongside blockchain settlement.

Institutional Adoption Strengthens Stellar’s RWA Position

Several established financial companies have already introduced tokenized products through Stellar. Franklin Templeton launched its BENJI money market fund on the network in 2021, marking an early example of a traditional U.S. investment product operating on a public blockchain.

Other companies, including Ondo Finance, WisdomTree and Spiko, have also expanded their tokenization activities on Stellar. Their products include tokenized U.S. Treasuries and investment funds designed to provide blockchain-based access to traditional financial instruments.

The network has also attracted attention from major financial market infrastructure providers. In May 2026, the Depository Trust Company (DTC) and the Stellar Development Foundation announced plans to tokenize assets held in DTC custody on Stellar, with availability expected during the first half of 2027.
