Solana Leads All Chains in Tokenized Stock Market Size Amidst RWA-Fi Boom

2025 was the year institutions took notice of Solana like never before, with ETFs and RWAs dominating headlines throughout the year.

With the foundations built, Solana is accelerating its adoption and usage of TradFi investment vehicles even further in 2026. Onchain equities are booming across the network, with Solana dominating rival chains in the tokenized stock arms race.

Why are tokenized stocks succeeding on Solana, and should we expect to see similar adoption of other RWAs, like commodities, in the near future?

Tokenized Stock Boom Continues

Within six months of making their debut on the network, Solana’s tokenized stock sector has secured a commanding lead in the race to bring equities onchain. Having flipped kingpin Layer-1 Ethereum, Solana now reportedly boasts the highest onchain equity AUM across all chains.

Beyond supporting crypto’s largest market capitalization of tokenized stocks, Solana DeFi remains the industry’s most liquid environment for onchain equity trading. Throughout 2025, Solana routinely commanded over 95% of tokenized stock trading volume across all networks.

While it’s difficult to pinpoint what exactly makes Solana so appealing to tokenized stock holders and traders, the network’s flourishing RWA-Fi is undoubtedly bringing maximum utility to this emerging asset class.

Solana-based lending platforms like Loopscale and Kamino have embraced tokenized equities, enabling holders to lend, collateralize, and borrow against their onchain stock portfolios. Meanwhile, Ethereum’s top lending protocols, like Aave and Morpho are yet to support the chain’s tokenized stocks, greatly diminishing the utility and adoption of these assets.

Other key developments in Solana’s RWA scene include Flash Trade’s rStocks swap pool. By providing permissionless swaps at NASDAQ prices, Flash Trade has democratized onchain market making, enabling all traders to profit from arbitrage opportunities between Remora Market’s stocks and their ‘real-world’ prices.

Remora Markets Hits All-Time High Everything

Off the back of Flash Trade’s permissionless swap pool and stock perps market, Remora Markets is hitting new all-time highs across trading volume, AUM, holders, and onchain liquidity. 

Having recently crossed $50M in total trading volume, Remora Markets' growth is steadily trending up and to the right.

Additionally, recent integrations with lending markets like Loopscale are bringing deeper utility to rStocks assets.

Demand for Onchain Commodities Flares as Metals Soar

With tokenized stocks finding PMF across the Solana network, RWA issuers find themselves in an onchain land grab to bring as much of the TradFi world onchain as possible. 

Purveyors of RWAs are optimistic that the tokenization of TradFi assets, like stocks, treasuries, and commodities, is still in its infancy, and could repeat the exponential growth curve demonstrated by stablecoins in recent years.

Amidst growing geopolitical tensions and currency debasement, commodities like gold, silver, and crude oil are enjoying a renaissance among retail traders. In the real world, “normie” investors are queuing to get their hands on physical gold bars, demonstrating surging demand for traditional hard assets.

While Solana boasts a range of tokenized gold products, the chain remains underserved in terms of other precious metals, including silver, copper, platinum, and palladium. This absence leaves a window of opportunity for emerging asset issuers seeking to bring the world’s markets onchain.
