+0.3%XRP Ledger overtakes Ethereum in tokenized commodity market growth
Image: U.TodayXRP Ledger has overtaken Ethereum as the leader in 2026 tokenized commodity market capitalization growth, per joint data from Token Terminal and RWA Foundation. XRPL recorded $2.2 billion in net capital inflows for tokenized commodities since the start of the year, compared to Ethereum's $1.6 billion. Avalanche ranked third with $334.5 million in inflows, followed by BNB Chain with $57.5 million. XRPL supports built-in asset issuance with sub-cent transaction fees and 3, 5 second settlement times. Ethereum retains leadership of the broader real-world asset market, driven by tokenized U.S. government bonds.
Key points
- XRPL has built-in asset issuance, sub-cent fees and 3, 5 second settlement for tokenized assets.
- Ethereum still leads the broader real-world asset market via tokenized U.S. government bonds.
Why it matters
The shift shows institutional and industrial users prefer XRPL's low-cost, fast settlement for physical asset tokenization. Ethereum's continued lead in tokenized government bonds highlights differing use case strengths across networks.
