VILNIUS, Lithuania, October 30, 2025 - BTCC, one of the world’s longest-operating cryptocurrency exchanges, reported a combined $29.2 billion USDT in trading volume from its tokenized real-world asset (RWA) futures during the second and third quarters of 2025. The figures reflect growing activity in on-chain representations of traditional financial instruments as the broader RWA market surpasses $30 billion in total value.
According to BTCC’s internal data, tokenized futures referencing gold, major U.S. stock indices, and large-cap equities were among the most active contracts during the reporting period. The exchange recorded $16.4 billion in RWA futures volume in Q2 and $12.8 billion in Q3. The most-traded contracts included gold, the S&P 500, Dow Jones, NASDAQ-100, Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Coinbase, and Circle Internet Group.
BTCC currently lists over 50 tokenized futures products, allowing users to open positions on equities, commodities, indices, and forex pairs using USDT as collateral. The platform offers leverage up to 150x for precious metals and 20x for equity-based futures.
“Cross-market participation in RWA products is expanding faster than anyone expected,” said Peter Lee, Chief Marketing Officer at BTCC. “With more institutions exploring tokenized exposure to equities, commodities, and indices, BTCC’s RWA futures platform bridges familiar assets with crypto-native settlement - bringing institutional-grade efficiency to both sides of the market.”
Tokenized RWAs are blockchain-based versions of traditional assets such as equities, commodities, and treasuries, enabling exposure to off-chain markets with on-chain settlement and collateral structures. The sector has emerged as one of the fastest-growing areas in digital assets, with exchanges and financial institutions developing tokenized infrastructure for both institutional and retail traders.
While many tokenization initiatives have focused on debt and fund products, BTCC’s expansion into futures-based RWAs highlights increasing participation from derivatives traders in this emerging segment. The exchange’s growth in RWA volume aligns with the broader trend of convergence between traditional finance and crypto markets, as trading venues experiment with tokenized versions of established financial instruments.
