Headline yield is an output. Provider terms, cyber controls, insurance limits, incentives, and the route to redemption all change what the number means.

Tokenisation scales when the digital record and legal claim point to the same ownership. Before asking where a tokenised asset can move, ask what the token records.

Tokenised real-world assets on public blockchains passed $50 billion this month. In Q1 2023 the figure was $1.5 billion.
The concentration matters as much as the growth:
- Over 90% of tokenised RWAs sit on @ethereum
- Two thirds of on-chain activity settles on a single layer
- Long-run forecasts range from $2T (@McKinsey) to $18.9T (@BCG)
As assets scale, the allocator focus shifts from token issuance to market plumbing: intraday settlement, custody, and collateral mobility.
