The XRP Ledger (XRPL) has posted the fastest growth in real-world assets (RWAs) of any blockchain over the past 30 days, according to data shared by Phil Kwok, co-founder of EasyA. Kwok described the expansion as “very impressive,” crediting Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin as the primary catalyst.
High-Value Tokenizations Drive XRPL Growth
Figures from the RWA league table show the XRP Ledger achieving a 32.27% monthly increase in RWA value, reaching $243.2 million. This growth came from just nine listed RWAs—highlighting a “low count, high value” model that signals institutional-grade tokenization.
In comparison, Arbitrum ranked second with a 19.47% increase, 113 listings, and $8.45 billion in total RWA value. Plume followed with a 12.62% rise from 107 listings valued at $246.2 million. Other active RWA networks, including Ethereum, Polygon, Stellar, and Avalanche, recorded slower growth despite having hundreds of tokenized projects.
RLUSD Emerges as a Key Growth Driver
Community analyst and X user SonOfaRichard noted that XRPL’s growth is fueled by practical adoption rather than speculation. The network’s fast settlement times, low fees, and reliability are attracting tokenized assets seeking operational efficiency.
He identified Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin as the central growth engine, with rising RLUSD liquidity enabling more RWA onboarding and supporting increased daily transaction volumes. This has made RLUSD the preferred settlement layer for many tokenization projects on XRPL.
Competitive Advantage in RWA Adoption
Kwok suggested that upcoming developments from EasyA Labs could accelerate XRPL’s momentum further. By focusing on high-value asset tokenization rather than sheer volume of listings, the network has carved out a competitive niche that allows it to outpace larger ecosystems in growth rate.
With institutional-grade RWAs forming the bulk of its expansion and RLUSD adoption still climbing, analysts believe XRPL’s share of the RWA market could grow significantly in the coming months.
The past month’s performance positions the XRP Ledger as a leading blockchain for high-value RWA settlement. If current trends continue—and RLUSD integration deepens—XRPL may solidify its role as one of the top destinations for tokenized real-world assets.
