BNB Chain has experienced significant growth in its tokenized asset sector. Over the past 30 days, the number of tokenized asset holders on the network surged by 320%, bringing user counts close to 800,000 and positioning the network as the leader in tokenized asset ownership ahead of Robinhood and Solana.
Commenting on the growth, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) stated that tokenization serves as an effective method for countries to raise capital and attract foreign direct investment. While acknowledging that tokenization can introduce liquidity fragmentation, CZ noted that this issue can be managed through interchangeability among different issuers.
Data indicates that BNB Chain currently holds tokenized stocks valued at $884 million, compared to Ethereum's $683 million. In the broader real-world asset (RWA) tokenization segment—encompassing stocks, ETFs, credit, and other assets—Canton held a 79% market share and led the sector with $11 million in revenue over a seven-day period. Meanwhile, BNB Chain generated $4.5 million in revenue during the same timeframe, ranking fifth and capturing 12% of overall blockchain revenue.
The growth in the tokenization space coincides with broader market movements. BNB increased by 10% over the week, supported by short squeezes and broader macroeconomic narratives that pushed Bitcoin to a peak of $76,000. Despite the weekly gains, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) reached the overbought zone, and the altcoin's price approached the 2026 range high of $686.
On-chain positioning data from Nansen revealed mixed signals, with whales increasing their exposure by 13% over the week while smart money reduced positions, suggesting that further price momentum for BNB may depend on Bitcoin's subsequent market direction.
