What is the trend (compared to last week )?
The market value on the chain rebounded strongly, and the momentum of user growth continued to be released: After a slow upward trend in the second half of June, the market value of RWA increased by more than 4% this week, and the number of users climbed sharply to 310,000 again . The market is re-entering an active expansion cycle, and the ecological attractiveness continues to increase. Funds flowed back to high-yield assets, and private credit led the rise again: Private credit rebounded strongly after a short-term adjustment, with a net increase of US$800 million in a single week . The market risk appetite rebounded in stages, and investors rekindled their interest in high-yield products on the chain. Alternative funds have emerged, and the signal of structural diversification is obvious: Alternative funds grew by more than 26% in a week , institutional funds have participated more, and asset portfolio allocation is becoming more diversified.
The current RWA market has entered a stage of structural expansion + recovery in risk appetite. It is recommended to dynamically adjust the allocation strategy from the following aspects: continue to focus on allocating private credit assets, which are suitable for priority when there is a strong pursuit of returns. The allocation value is enhanced under the current rebound trend; strengthen attention to and screening of alternative assets. Institutional funds may have been deployed in advance, and such assets may become an important structural supplement in the future; stable assets such as U.S. Treasuries continue to serve as basic positions to provide a defensive buffer when volatility returns; pay close attention to new issuers and the launch of new product categories. The current market has the basic conditions to accept more innovative assets.
In general, the RWA market has restarted its growth engine in mid-July 2025. Driven by the rebound of high-yield assets and the resonance of user inflows, the on-chain asset structure continues to optimize. It is expected that in the next few weeks, we will enter a window period of incremental asset launch and multi-asset resonance expansion. We should remain sensitive to changes in the on-chain structure and act when the time is right.
Review of key events
U.S. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce wrote that tokenized securities are still securities in essence, so market participants must fully consider and strictly comply with federal securities regulations when trading such instruments.
Securities tokenization may be implemented by the issuer itself, for example, an industrial company or investment company can tokenize its shares; it may also be operated by a custodian that holds securities issued by a third party. Such institutions may issue tokens linked to their custodial securities, or tokenize the security rights that investors enjoy in the custodian. Buyers of such third-party tokens may face special risks such as unique counterparty risks.
Issuers of tokenized securities must fulfill the information disclosure obligations required by federal securities laws. Market participants should carefully evaluate the legal attributes of these securities and their corresponding regulatory requirements when distributing, purchasing and trading tokenized securities.
Market participants are advised to proactively communicate with the CSRC and its staff when designing tokenized product solutions. When technical characteristics do require adjustments to current rules, or regulatory requirements are outdated, the SEC is willing to work with the industry to develop reasonable exemption clauses to promote the regulatory framework to keep pace with the times.
Cayman Islands proposes to amend law to clarify regulatory boundaries for tokenized funds
The Cayman Islands has proposed the Virtual Asset Service Providers (Amendment) Bill 2025, which intends to amend the definition of virtual asset issuance in the VASP Act to explicitly exclude financial instruments such as tokenized fund interests and equity. This amendment will prevent tokenized funds from being subject to dual regulation by the VASP Act and the Funds Act, reducing the compliance burden. If passed, the new regulations will have retroactive effect, provide legal certainty for existing tokenized funds, and strengthen Caymans leading position in the RWA tokenization field.
Ant Financial’s Jovay launches testnet, mainnet to be launched in Q4
On July 15, the Jovay testnet was officially launched. As a blockchain platform built by Ant Digits for institutional-level application scenarios, it aims to serve various application scenarios including RWA. Jovay solves the core pain points of traditional Layer 2 solutions in performance, security, compliance and scalability through three technologies: parallel execution architecture, progressive hybrid verification mechanism and modular architecture, making large-scale high-frequency transactions on the chain possible. It is understood that Jovay plans to complete the mainnet launch in the fourth quarter of 2025.
It is reported that Jovay can significantly improve throughput while shortening user response time to less than 1 second through a three-layer pipeline parallel architecture at the transaction level, block level, and batch level, ensuring the real-time performance of scenarios such as transfers and RWA contract calls.
In response to the problems of traditional Rollup solutions such as long verification time and delayed dispute period, Jovay adopts a dual proof architecture system of trusted execution environment (TEE) and zero-knowledge proof (ZKP), which takes into account performance while reducing the trust dependence on centralized hardware. Jovay also adopts a modular architecture, which can independently upgrade each core module according to technological evolution.
