With the growing number of investors in tokenized ETFs, the sector has grown in tandem, reaching a market capitalization of roughly $437.6 million at the time of publication. The most demanded tokenized ETFs among these users over the past year have been SPYx (SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust) and QQQx (Invesco QQQ Trust), with market shares of 49.3% and 18.7%, respectively.

Notably, the Solana (SOL) network accounts for the sector’s lion’s share, currently estimated at around 67.2%. Meanwhile, the BNB chain and the Ethereum (ETH) network account for roughly 17.7% and 10.3%, respectively, of the total tokenized ETFs.

Why is the tokenized ETF space ballooning?

The tokenized ETFs space has ballooned over the past year, driven by 24/7 global trading, ultra-low costs in Decentralized Finance (DeFi), regulatory clarity, and self-custody. With tokenized traditional ETFs on DeFi, more users can seamlessly trade and earn yields unavailable on traditional platforms.

Worth noting, this sector offers crypto users more options to diversify their portfolios with less-volatile assets, without trading restrictions. Moreover, unlike DeFi protocols, which operate continuously and are open to anyone, traditional stock markets close at night and on weekends and often restrict retail access due to geographical limits.

The growth of this space has been heavily influenced by the regulatory clarity in the United States. Under the chair of Paul Atkins, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved the listing of tokenized assets.

Who decides on the liquidation when assets remain with the custodian bank and funds are lent out onto the blockchain?
After institutions hand over their collateral to qualified custodian organizations, they can still obtain funds from the on-chain lending market. This is the approach outlined by Chainlink on October 26th when introducing CustodySync. The official first-party partner is Anchorage Digital Bank, which, in conjunction with its Atlas collateral management product, integrates the custodial arrangements familiar to institutions into the liquidity of DeFi.

The unemployment rate in the eurozone remains at 6.5%, yet the number of unemployed has increased by 122,000.
The unemployment rate in the eurozone in September remained the same as in August, at 6.5%; however, the number of unemployed increased from 11.433 million to 11.555 million, an increase of 122,000 in just one month. These figures, released by the European Union Statistics Office on October 30th, present another side of the so-called "stable unemployment rate": while the ratio shown in the headlines remained unchanged, the number of people joining the ranks of the unemployed continued to rise.
