The story of real assets encoded in (RWA) has officially shifted from theory to large-scale implementation, and the latest on-chain data shows a clear leader. Canton Network is rapidly becoming the central infrastructure for organizational-level tokenization, operating at a scale far beyond the rest of the blockchain market.

Comparisons between networks show that Canton represents approximately $388 billion in tokenized real assets on-chain. Meanwhile, the second-ranked network only reaches around $14 billion, clearly reflecting the fragmentation and early stage of the entire RWA ecosystem today. This gap is structural, not just growth-driven, and is fueled by institutional capital flows rather than retail experimentation.

The upward momentum is strongly reinforced after DTCC, which processes about $4 quadrillion annually, confirmed a partnership with Canton to tokenize U.S. Treasury bonds starting in the second half of 2026. This indicates that core payment, clearing, and collateral systems are preparing to shift onto blockchain at scale.
