Weekly News Roundup 🗞️

RWAs are now outperforming Bitcoin

https://t.co/OVkNsxgAK7…

Tokenized RWAs, AI, and privacy were the most trending narratives in crypto this month, outperforming Bitcoin and major altcoins. Tokenization could expand to $30 trillion by 2030. The capital rotation toward real-yield assets is now visible in price.

The “RWA 2.0” thesis takes hold

https://t.co/XhZ9mGyF93…

a16z’s May trends piece argues the industry will see more origination, not just tokenization.

CoinGecko’s RWA Report sets the baseline

https://t.co/UhpQj79QLq…

Tokenized commodities now account for 28.7% of the sector, with their market cap rising from $1.43B to $5.55B in Q1. RWA perpetuals recorded $524.79B in Q1 2026 volume alone…on track to more than double 2025’s full-year total.

@ScofieldOnchain great post 👏🏼

🕰️ Global gold demand reached record levels in 2025 while supply growth remained limited, reinforcing the tightening structural balance. (Reuters)

The next decade may therefore be defined not by a shortage of demand for gold, but by a shortage of economically viable gold deposits. The future of the industry belongs to miners that can deliver ounces responsibly, efficiently, and in politically secure regions. Gold itself may remain timeless, but the business of producing it is entering a new era, one where scarcity becomes the industry's most valuable asset.

[Peter • VLRM @PeterRWA]

My personal Sunday thoughts on all things gold.

🗞️ Gold at a Crossroads: Record Prices, Limited Supply, and the Future of Mining

⛏️ Gold has once again asserted itself as one of the world's most strategic assets. Driven by geopolitical uncertainty, central bank diversification, persistent inflation concerns, and weakening confidence in traditional reserve currencies, gold prices have reached successive record highs over the past two years.

The question facing investors and mining executives is no longer whether gold remains relevant, but whether the industry can produce enough of it to meet future demand.

The most striking aspect of today's gold market is the disconnect between price and supply. Historically, rising prices incentivised rapid production growth.

📊 Yet despite record margins and significantly higher gold prices, global mine production has increased only marginally. Recent industry data indicates that global mine output reached approximately 3,670 tonnes in 2025, only around 1% higher than the previous year and barely above prior production peaks. (World Gold Council)

This signals a structural shift. The industry is no longer constrained by economics alone; it is increasingly constrained by geology, permitting, and capital intensity.

The era of large, high-grade discoveries appears to be fading. New deposits are becoming harder to find, more expensive to develop, and often located in jurisdictions with heightened political, environmental, or regulatory risks. Meanwhile, average ore grades continue to decline, forcing operators to process larger volumes of material to produce the same amount of gold. The result is rising operating costs and longer development timelines. Industry all-in sustaining costs have already reached record levels, highlighting the inflationary pressures facing producers (World Gold Council).

Looking ahead, the future winners in gold mining are unlikely to be those simply producing the most ounces. Instead, value will increasingly accrue to companies that control tier-one assets in stable jurisdictions, possess strong balance sheets, and can leverage technology to improve productivity. Canada, Australia, and select regions of Africa are already emerging as key growth centres as new projects and mine expansions come online. (World Gold Council)

‼️ Another trend shaping the sector is the growing importance of mergers, acquisitions, and resource consolidation. As organic discoveries become scarcer, major producers will increasingly look to acquire existing reserves rather than discover them. This dynamic could create substantial opportunities for developers and junior miners holding high-quality deposits.

For investors, the long-term thesis for gold remains compelling. Demand continues to be supported by central banks, institutional investors, and geopolitical uncertainty. Supply, however, is becoming progressively more difficult to expand. In commodity markets, this combination typically supports higher prices over time.

🔗 A further development that could reshape the gold market is the rise of gold #tokenisation. As #blockchain technology matures, investors are increasingly able to own and trade #digital tokens backed by #physical gold held in secure vaults. Tokenisation has the potential to improve liquidity, reduce barriers to entry, and broaden access to gold ownership globally. However, every token ultimately requires physical gold to underpin its value. This creates an important link between digital finance and traditional mining: as tokenised gold markets expand, the need for credible, audited, and responsibly sourced physical gold becomes even more critical. In many respects, the growth of tokenisation could increase the strategic importance of mining companies, as the digital gold economy can only be as strong as the physical ounces supporting it.

RWA (Real World Assets) and tokenisation in my opinion could be the biggest financial unlock nobody is paying enough attention to.

For years #crypto chased narratives.
2026 is where infrastructure started winning.

Here’s what’s happening 👇

Tokenisation = putting ownership of real-world assets on-chain:

➡️Treasuries.
➡️Real estate.
➡️Private credit.
➡️Commodities.
➡️Equities.
➡️Funds.

Anything with value becomes programmable.
The biggest shift?

🚨 Institutions stopped laughing.

Banks, asset managers, regulators and exchanges are now building the rails. Tokenised treasuries dominate today, but tokenised stocks, ETFs and commodities are accelerating fast.

🗞️Tokenised RWA markets more than tripled from early 2025 into Q1 2026. (CoinGecko)

🕵️ Why does it matter?

Because legacy finance moves like it's 1999:
➡️Settlement delays.
➡️Market fragmentation.
➡️Middlemen everywhere.
➡️Capital trapped in inefficient systems.
➡️Tokenisation fixes that.
➡️24/7 markets.
➡️Near instant settlement.
➡️Fractional ownership.
➡️Global access.
➡️Programmable compliance.

🧩Imagine buying 0.3% of a commercial building as easily as buying BTC.
🧩Imagine sovereign debt trading globally 24/7.
🧩Imagine private markets becoming liquid.

That's where this is heading. The UK is actively exploring tokenisation infrastructure and near-24/7 settlement models. Regulators globally are moving from watching to building frameworks. (F.N. London)

💥 But here's the reality check:
Tokenising assets doesn't automatically create liquidity.

Liquidity comes from buyers, sellers, distribution and trust.
Bad tokenisation projects die.
Real infrastructure survives.

⭐ What the rest of 2026 looks like:

→ Tokenised Treasuries continue dominating institutional flows
→ Tokenised equities become retail growth drivers
→ Compliance becomes product infrastructure, not a feature
→ More banks move on-chain quietly
→ Permissioned institutional rails expand
→ DeFi and TradFi integrations deepen
→ Regulation becomes clearer, not looser

🤔 The biggest misunderstanding?

People think tokenisation is about crypto.

It isn't.

It's about rebuilding financial plumbing.
Slowly.

Then suddenly.

Watch the rails.

💰 That's where trillion-dollar shifts begin.

The UK’s financial infrastructure prepares for tokenisation

The Bank of England and FCA are proposing extended settlement operating hours as wholesale markets prepare for the next phase of digital finance and tokenisation.

Markets are under intense pressure to become global, digital and always-on. Infrastructure must be capable of supporting real-time settlement, interoperability and tokenised assets. The UK is busy laying the groundwork for expanded access, and legal and regulatory frameworks which support blockchain-based markets.

Everyone thinks RWAs are about “putting assets on-chain.”

They’re missing the bigger shift.the reason I’m So deep in this space is RWAs are turning financial products into internet-native infrastructure.

Treasuries, private credit, real estate, equities all becoming programmable, 24/7, globally accessible, and instantly settleable.

That’s why BlackRock, JPMorgan, Franklin Templeton, and DTCC are all moving in. This isn’t crypto replacing TradFi.

It’s TradFi rebuilding itself on crypto rails.

We’re still early:

➡️ liquidity is fragmented
➡️ regulation is uneven
➡️ secondary markets are immature

But the direction is obvious.

The next decade of finance won’t be defined by “which blockchain wins.”

It’ll be defined by which assets move on-chain first.

Tokenized treasury markets and institutional RWA adoption have accelerated sharply through 2025–2026, with firms like BlackRock, JPMorgan, Franklin Templeton, and DTCC actively building tokenized finance infrastructure.

BREAKING:

SEC Chair Paul Atkins just said something historic.
"All U.S. markets will be on chain within two years."

Not some markets
Not select assets.
All of them.

Every stock. Every bond. Every derivative.
On the blockchain. Within two years.

The man who regulates the entire U.S. financial system.

Just told the world that Wall Street is moving on-chain.

This is not a prediction from a crypto influencer.
This is the SEC Chair.

The same institution that spent 4 years trying to kill crypto.

Now putting a two year timeline on tokenizing everything.

$50,000,000,000,000 in U.S. financial markets.
Moving to the blockchain.

And crypto hasn't priced this in yet.
