After recently moving ahead of Solana, the XRP Ledger is now closing in on BNB Chain in the race for tokenized real-world assets (RWA).

Over the past 30 days, XRPL added approximately $354 million in tokenized assets, even as XRP’s market price faced broader downside pressure. This fresh growth has lifted the network’s total RWA value to $1.874 billion, excluding stablecoins and combining both distributed and represented assets.

XRP Overtakes Solana in RWA Rankings

According to the latest RWA league table, the XRP Ledger now ranks sixth among blockchain networks by tokenized real-world asset value.

In the process, XRPL surpassed Solana, which currently holds around $1.7 billion in tokenized RWAs (excluding stablecoins). The move highlights a clear divergence between price performance and on-chain asset growth, with XRPL expanding its tokenization footprint despite market volatility.

BNB Chain Now in Focus

With $1.874 billion in RWAs, XRPL sits just behind BNB Chain, which currently reports approximately $2.3 billion in tokenized assets.

To overtake BNB and secure the fifth position globally, XRPL would need to add roughly another $400 million in tokenized value. Given the recent $354 million monthly increase, the gap appears measurable rather than structural.

Structural Growth Amid Price Weakness

While XRP price action has struggled during the broader market downturn, the steady rise in tokenized asset value suggests growing infrastructure use rather than speculative demand.

If current momentum in RWA issuance continues, XRPL could soon challenge BNB Chain’s position and further solidify its standing among leading tokenization networks.

The post Metaplanet Stock Slides as Top Japanese Bitcoin Treasury Sets Up Shop in Miami appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Tokyo-listed Metaplanet is expanding to the U.S. Its Miami-based subsidiary will initially have $15 million in capital. The firm meanwhile closed on its $1.45 billion public offering. Metaplanet, a Tokyo-listed hotel group that owns $2.3 billion worth of Bitcoin, said on Wednesday that its business is expanding to the U.S. The firm, which owns more than 20,000 Bitcoin, is establishing a subsidiary in Miami, Florida, to “manage and grow income-generation activities,” according to a press release. Metaplanet said the wholly-owned firm, dubbed Metaplanet Income Corp., will initially have $15 million in capital. It will provide its parent company with a better opportunity to “pursue derivatives operations and related activities that produce revenue,” Metaplanet added. The company’s shares changed hands around $4.06, falling nearly 4% on Wednesday, according to Yahoo Finance. The company’s stock price has plunged roughly 68% over the past three months from $12.90, although it has still increased 74% year-to-date. Founded in 1999, Metaplanet has managed budget hotels across Japan, including “love hotels,” but Wednesday’s announcement makes no mention of hospitality. Rather, Metaplanet said the new subsidiary will be separate from its treasury operations. In the second quarter, Metaplanet disclosed an operating profit of ¥817 million ($5.5 million) on ¥1.23 billion ($8.4 million) in total sales, according to a shareholder presentation. The performance was largely driven by Metaplanet’s income-generation segment, which generated ¥1.13 billion ($7.7 million) by selling Bitcoin put options. The derivatives are only profitable for buyers when Bitcoin’s spot price falls below an option’s given strike price. “This business has become our engine of growth, generating consistent revenue and net income,” Metaplanet President Simon Gerovich said on X on Wednesday. Gerovich separately said on Wednesday that Metaplanet had officially closed on its $1.45 billion offering of 385 million shares. More than 70 investors…
