September brought continued momentum across digital markets, with new assets, platforms, and institutional developments shaping the month.
At Anchored, we focused on bringing tokenized stocks to the world through partnerships and collaborations, while continuing to expand across onchain markets.
Here’s a look at what happened in our first monthly recap 👇
September Market Overview
The broader market continued to evolve throughout September, with $38.80B in distributed RWA assets (source: RWA.xyz) and total asset holders reaching 5.1M, highlighting growing activity across digital and real-world markets.
Some of the month's biggest developments included:
Market: Distributed on-chain RWAs finished September near $38.5–39.2 billion, holders surged past 4.5 million, while Binance Research put the market at $34.18 billion as of September 15, up 85.2% year to date.
Institutional: Ondo’s Oasis Pro Markets became the first tokenization firm on DTCC’s Fund/SERV, Nasdaq put $100 million into Payward for its equity-token framework, and the ECB switched on Pontes so banks can settle tokenized assets in central-bank money.
Regulatory: Two days after the Senate blocked the CLARITY Act, the SEC issued a five-year Innovation Exemption letting qualifying venues trade tokenized U.S. stocks on-chain, provided the tokens carry ordinary shareholder rights.
Tokenized stocks: Tokenized equities crossed $3 billion and were the fastest-growing major RWA category, up about 15–18% in 30 days.
Other: Korea, India, Singapore, and Hong Kong all advanced token-securities or stablecoin rules in the same month.
These developments point to a market that is becoming increasingly connected, accessible, and active.
