Ethereum’s Dominance in Tokenized Assets

Ethereum leads tokenization of real‑world assets, with billions on its chain. Bonds, funds, real estate and treasuries are issued on ETH. Institutions prefer its on‑chain infrastructure.

Institutional Capital Fuels Adoption

$22.5 bn of fund assets are tokenized on Ethereum, yielding ~71.9% market share. JPMorgan’s MONY fund, BlackRock’s BUIDL and Franklin Templeton’s money fund mark major 2026 entries. They let autonomous agents access capital without brokers.

DeFi Stability for Autonomous Agents

Ethereum DeFi offers stable money‑market funds with deep liquidity, predictable yields and low smart‑contract risk. Hacks are now rare and limited to speculative edges. Core applications stay robust, and loss share of TVL keeps falling.

Wall‑Street Firms Build Institutional DeFi

Broadridge handles >$8 tn of tokenized repo settlements and adds on‑chain governance for equity. Galaxy Digital provides staking for BlackRock’s ETHB ETF, tying institutional capital to blockchain. Their work enables the first on‑chain shareholder vote, hinting at change for the $200 bn proxy‑voting market.
