It's a little quiet out there.
You know what they say about the calm before the storm.
While timelines can slows down, builders can still ship. Join the Defactor Discord to connect with the future of RWAs

RWAs have gone from a fledgling industry to a multi-billion-dollar market in just a few years.
Now comes the hard part: building the infrastructure, standards, and communities that take it mainstream.

RWAs won’t be built by one team alone.
They’ll be built by communities sharing ideas, testing models, debating infrastructure, and figuring out what actually works on-chain.
That’s what’s happening in the Defactor Discord.
Come build with us 👇

The best infrastructure isn’t built in isolation.
Open-source communities power most of the internet, and 82% of developers say community collaboration helps them solve problems faster.
DeFi is no different.
That’s why the Defactor Discord exists, builders sharing ideas, solving challenges, and shaping the future of tokenization together.

We just published our latest research: "Tokenized Deposits: The Future of Money."
The report breaks down how commercial bank deposits are moving onto blockchain infrastructure, and what that means for the financial system.
Here's what we found:
🪙 Tokenized deposits, stablecoins, and CBDCs serve different roles. They complement each other rather than compete.
🪙 J.P. Morgan, Citi, BNY, Standard Chartered, HSBC and Lloyds are already running live tokenized deposit services for institutional clients.
🪙 Five US regional banks announced a shared tokenized deposit network in February 2026, signaling adoption beyond the top tier.
🪙 87% of financial institutions are exploring tokenization.
🪙 Digital currencies are projected to process up to $13 trillion in transaction value by 2030.
🪙 Global customer deposits totaled $103 trillion in 2024. Even a fraction moving on-chain creates a market far larger than today's stablecoin sector.
The regulatory picture is also shifting. The US GENIUS Act provides clarity for stablecoins while keeping tokenized deposits under existing banking law. The UK's GBTD pilot is live with seven major banks. The ECB is advancing the Digital Euro. And in the UAE, the Digital Dirham has gone live on the mBridge platform.
The big challenge ahead: interoperability. Tokenized deposits remain liabilities of individual banks. Scaling requires networks that let deposits issued by one bank settle with another. Projects like BIS Project Agora, Partior, and the UK's GBTD are working on exactly this.
This report was shaped with contributions from 15 organizations, including @StanChart, @Citi, @BNYglobal, @jpmorgan, @iOndoFinance, @digitalasset, @CantonNetwork, @LayerZero_Core, @BMW, @ABNAMRO, @ERC3643Org, @trondao, @UKFtweets, @Cambridge_Uni and @Alchemy.
A big thank you to anyone involved 🤝
