Its base case projects that figure will rise to $5.5 trillion globally by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>The forecast comes with a wide range. Citi\u2019s lower estimate is $2.7 trillion, while its high-end scenario reaches $8.2 trillion. The outcome will depend on how quickly institutions, regulators, and market infrastructure providers adopt tokenized systems.<\/p>\n<p>The estimate covers assets such as Treasury bills, public stocks, funds, and other financial instruments that can be issued, represented, or transferred onchain.<\/p>\n<p>Citi\u2019s report adds to a growing view on Wall Street that tokenization could improve market plumbing. Supporters say blockchain-based rails may shorten settlement times, extend trading hours, and make certain assets easier to access.<\/p>\n<p>Treasury bills are expected to be one of the largest early markets. Citi projects that 10% of the U.S. Treasury bill market could be tokenized by 2030. That forecast is closely tied to <span>stablecoins<\/span>. Many large <span>stablecoin<\/span> issuers already hold short-term U.S. government debt as reserves. Citi said continued <span>stablecoin<\/span> growth could create roughly $1 trillion in new demand for Treasuries.<\/p>\n<p>Stocks are another major part of the bank\u2019s outlook. Citi expects about 3% of the U.S. public equity market to move into tokenized form by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>The bank said a 10% shift by everyday U.S. investors toward digital trading platforms could generate $2.6 trillion in demand for digital stocks. That would mark a clear expansion beyond crypto-native assets and into core public markets.<\/p>\n<h3> <span>Stablecoins<\/span> to Power Tokenization Push<\/h3>\n<p> <span>Stablecoins<\/span> remain central to this transition because they provide the cash layer for onchain settlement. They can allow investors to move between tokenized securities, funds, and Treasury products without relying fully on traditional settlement windows.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Citi\u2019s forecast assumes that tokenized assets will need more than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-a-blockchain\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blockchain<\/a> wrappers. Securities must remain connected to legal ownership records, regulated custody, and compliance systems. Without that structure, tokenization may struggle to win broad institutional adoption.<\/p>\n<p>The broader real-world asset market has already grown in 2026, with recent estimates placing tokenized <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-real-world-assets-rwa\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">RWAs<\/a> near $31 billion to $34 billion, excluding <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-stablecoins\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stablecoins<\/a>. Tokenized Treasuries remain one of the largest categories, while Ethereum continues to host a significant share of activity.<\/p>\n<p>Citi\u2019s report suggests the next phase will be larger and more institutional. If the bank\u2019s base case proves right, tokenized Treasury bills, public stocks, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-stablecoins\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stablecoin<\/a> settlement could become key pillars of Wall Street\u2019s onchain future.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/citi-projects-5-5t-tokenized-market-by-2030-as-wall-street-moves-onchain\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Citi projects tokenized securities could grow from $17B to $5.5T by 2030.
