The RWA Boom: How Much Is Actually Being Used? | Meta
In today's episode, we're joined by meta to explore the real-world asset (RWA) market through DeFiLlama’s dashboards. Putting an asset onchain and getting people to use it. We unpack how to measure that difference, why RWA metrics vary between platforms, and what trading activity can tell us about demand.
We discuss:
- The biggest RWA asset classes and issuers
- How tokenized assets are classified
- Permissioned versus permissionless assets
- Why KYC requirements can restrict trading
- AUM, onchain value, active assets and DeFi TVL
- Asset growth versus rising underlying prices
- RWA perpetuals, open interest and trader attention
- Filtering artificial trading volume
- Why “RWA” might cover too many different things
And much more—enjoy!
