The $16 Trillion Question: Who Measures Tokenization?

The numbers, first. Tokenized real-world assets crossed $30 billion in early 2026, a 300% year-on-year increase : US Treasury debt ($10.7bn), commodities ($5.1bn), private credit ($2.9bn), institutional alternative funds ($2.2bn) leading the mix.

Why Gold’s Low Sharpe Ratio Masks Its True Value as a Strategic Tail-Risk Hedge

Its low Sharpe ratio is due to no carry yield and custody costs, but it offers absolute decorrelation during systemic geopolitical shocks.
