The First ‘Real’ RWA Winners Won’t Be Real Estate — It’ll Be Yield
Beincrypto reports that institutions evaluate real-world asset tokenization by asking how badly systems can fail rather than focusing only on technical performance, making failure-risk assessment the primary barrier to institutional scale. Panelists at BeInCrypto's Online Summit 2026 said yield-bearing RWAs — tokenized Treasuries, money market instruments, and private credit — are scaling first as they attract on-chain capital, while fragmentation across blockchains acts as an economic tax that siloes liquidity and reduces capital efficiency.
Speakers argued interoperability and risk controls will decide which platforms scale, highlighting intent-based architectures that let institutions offload execution risk and the need for standardized, visible emergency mechanisms that regulators can understand.
