RWA Market Performance

As of November 5, 2025, the total on-chain value of RWA is $35.78 billion, an increase of $750 million from $35.03 billion on October 28, with a growth rate of 2.14%. This marks the sixth consecutive week of growth, continuing the steady expansion of the market. The total number of asset holders rose from 512,041 to 530,943, with an increase of 18,902 people in a single week, a growth rate of 3.69%. The number of asset issuers increased from 230 to 242, with 12 new issuers added in a week, marking the fastest growth in issuers in recent weeks. In the stablecoin market, the total market capitalization slightly decreased from $29.597 billion to $29.462 billion, a reduction of $1.35 billion, with a decline of 0.46%, remaining within a reasonable range. The number of stablecoin holders increased from 198.77 million to 200.69 million, an increase of approximately 1.92 million people, a growth rate of 0.97%.

From the asset structure perspective, private credit continues to hold a core position, with its value growing from $17.9 billion to $18.6 billion, an increase of $700 million, a growth rate of 3.91%. Not only is the total amount continuing to expand, but its proportion also remains the highest among all RWA assets, indicating a significant preference for on-chain credit assets. U.S. Treasury bonds further increased this week, rising from $8.6 billion to $8.8 billion, with an increase of approximately 2.33%, continuing to attract conservative capital allocations against a backdrop of easing expectations for U.S. Treasury rates. Commodity assets remained at the $3 billion level, with no changes for two consecutive weeks, as market attention on commodities enters a temporary wait-and-see period. Institutional alternative funds also remained at $3 billion, with institutional capital allocation pacing stabilizing. The public equity portion slightly rebounded to $670.8 million, a slight decrease from last week's $699.5 million, as market performance this week showed insufficient resilience. Non-U.S. government debt continued to stabilize at $1 billion, while other sectors such as private equity showed no significant fluctuations, remaining in a supportive allocation role overall.

Trend Analysis (Comparison with Last Week)

Overall, the RWA market exhibited a "steady acceleration" characteristic in the first week of November. Market capitalization continued to grow, user numbers kept rising, and the simultaneous increase in the number of issuers further highlights that the ecological infrastructure is entering a new expansion cycle. In terms of asset allocation, private credit and U.S. Treasury bonds remain the main sources of concentrated capital inflow, while commodities and alternative assets are showing a phase of consolidation. Although the total market capitalization of stablecoins has slightly declined, its user base is steadily expanding, reflecting a shift in user behavior towards long-term holding and scenario-based usage.

Bank Negara Malaysia Releases Three-Year Roadmap to Pilot Asset Tokenization Projects

Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has announced a three-year roadmap to pilot asset tokenization projects within the financial system. This plan will initiate multiple proof of concept (POC) and practical pilot projects through the Digital Asset Innovation Hub (DAIH) established earlier this year.

The core content of the roadmap includes the establishment of an Asset Tokenization Industry Working Group (IWG), co-led by the central bank and the Securities Commission (SC), responsible for promoting industry exploration, knowledge sharing, and regulatory coordination. The first batch of pilots will focus on applications with clear economic value, such as supply chain financing to expand credit access for SMEs, tokenized liquidity management to enhance settlement efficiency, and compliant applications for automatically executed Islamic financial transactions.

BNM also plans to study tokenized deposits and stablecoin schemes denominated in ringgit to ensure monetary consistency and enhance digital settlement efficiency, and will explore integration with wholesale central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). This project aims to modernize financial infrastructure in sync with Asian regulatory bodies such as the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA).

HKMA Vice President: Digital HKD and Tokenized Deposits Tend to Use Private Chains, Stablecoins Mostly Issued on Public Chains

In response to market rumors that the HKMA is not advancing the retail application of the digital HKD, HKMA Vice President Li Dazhi stated, "We do not rule out the retail application of stablecoins, and we believe there are significant opportunities for using stablecoins in retail; the actual usage will still depend on commercial institutions."

Li Dazhi added that the digital HKD, stablecoins, and tokenized deposits have similar technical natures, differing only in their issuers. The digital HKD is classified as "public currency," while tokenized deposits and stablecoins are "private currency." The digital HKD and tokenized deposits tend to use private chains, while stablecoins are mostly issued on public chains. Additionally, HKMA Assistant Vice President (Financial Infrastructure) Zhou Wenzheng stated that based on the intentions received by the HKMA, seven banks are currently interested in launching tokenized deposits this year.
