Ripple and BCG report: Global asset tokenization could reach $18.9t by 2033

A joint study conducted by Ripple and BCG predicts the size of the tokenized asset market could reach 18.9 billions of dollars over the next eight years while large institutions flock to blockchain technology.

According to a recent report Entitled “Approaching the Tokenization Tipping Point” published by Ripple (Xrp) and Boston Consulting Group, the tokenization of active real world has the potential to reach new heights.

The projection shows that the sector has an annual growth rate made up of 53%, with stable and real estate contributing to most of the growth. In 2025, the size of the tokenized asset market was $ 600 billion. This number could potentially skyrocket up to 18.9 billions of dollars.

The report has attributed the rapid growth of the sector to a variety of factors, including the evolution of blockchain technology to accommodate large companies, greater regulatory clarity for token assets and the appetite of young investors who show an increasing demand for digital assets.

CEO of Standard charter Luxembourg Entity, Laurent Marochini, commented on growth tokenization, especially among banks and financial institutions. He sees it as an opportunity to integrate it into different markets.

“The tokenization is progressing at different speeds between the asset classes – the fastest where it offers real efficiency and where the conditions allow secondary markets to emerge,” said Marochini.

According to the report, market size of $ 18.9 billions of dollars does not include cryptocurrency Because they do not count as tokenized assets, as well as the digital currencies of the central bank because they do not necessarily require blockchain technology. China and Russia markets are also excluded due to limited access to market data.

Real estate remains one of the largest assets in tokenization, valued at more than 300 dollars. Meanwhile, investment quality bonds have around 140 billions of dollars in volume and the financing of global trade amounts to more than 10 billions of dollars.

Previously, a McKinsey report foreseen That the tokenized market could reach a market capitalization of 2 dollars by 2030. This is largely due to the inclusion of new players like Coinbase Asset Management, Glasstower and Ripple who join the space in 2025.
