$XRP is emerging as a strong contender in the race to dominate the real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market, which is expected to grow to $16 trillion by 2030. With over $23 billion in tokenized assets already on-chain, the momentum is building fast. XRP stands out due to its built-in compliance features like address blacklisting, asset freezing, and full pool lockdowns—capabilities that align well with regulatory demands of institutional investors. These features are natively supported by the XRP Ledger, unlike competitors like Ethereum that rely on external smart contracts for similar functions. Planned upgrades, including a native identity layer, are set to make XRP even more attractive to asset managers.
If XRP captures even a small share of this massive RWA market, analysts suggest its price could eventually exceed $10. Its positioning at the foundational stage of this sector is compared to early movers shaping a financial boomtown. XRP’s focus on speed, security, and regulatory alignment gives it a clear advantage as tokenization becomes mainstream. However, competition remains a key challenge, as other blockchains continue to innovate rapidly. Still, XRP’s combination of infrastructure readiness and institutional focus could make it a central player in the next major wave of crypto adoption.
