BNB Chain and Robinhood Chain are the kings of RWA

The two chains have created a milestone together: the number of RWA holders of on-chain securities exceeds 500,000

The BNB chain and the Robin Hood chain have each exceeded the 500,000 independent real world asset (RWA) holder mark, which marks the beginning of the pilot phase of this field in 2025, the on-chain securities sector has ushered in the most large-scale mass adoption event.

Dual chains have reached milestones together, each with unique paths.

It is of great significance for the two networks to cross the threshold of 500,000 holders at the same time, but the reasons are different. The BNB chain has steadily accumulated an RWA foundation for a long time, adding 395,000 new stock token holders in the past year, far exceeding other chains. As of the end of June 2026, more than 709 tokenized stocks and ETFs have been hosted on the BNB chain, covering household names such as Nvidia and Micron, as well as newly listed assets such as Circle's CRCL.

The development trajectory of the Robin Hood Chain is more compact. The chain launched its public mainnet on July 1, 2026, reaching the holder milestone just 25 days later-after Robin Hood launched stock tokens, proxy trading and a broader suite of DeFi products at its London event. The Robin Hood Chain is built on the Arbitrum framework and is a permission-free Ethereum Layer 2 designed for on-chain finance involving tokenized equity.

In six months, the number of tokenized stock holders on all chains surged 448% to 1.4 million, of which the BNB chain and Robin Hood chain each accounted for approximately 500,000 holders. This near-even situation is particularly eye-catching because Robin Hood Chain will only go online around July 1, 2026, meaning it gained full share in about six weeks.

Value and growth momentum

The number of holders is only part of the story, and locked in value provides important background. As of mid-2026, the value of real-world assets on the BNB chain is approximately US$3.89 billion, making it the second-largest blockchain in total RWA. The combined value of tokenized goods and securities between the two networks is expected to exceed US$4.2 billion.

Just six weeks after Robin Hood Chain was launched on its Ethereum Layer 2 main network, RWA holders exceeded 420,000, and the total locked position value (TVL) exceeded US$1.3 billion. More than ten tokenized stocks, led by Game Station, Nvidia and SpaceX, have daily trading volumes of at least US$500,000, and several of them have exceeded US$1 million.

Robin Hood Chain has no native tokens. Instead, on-chain activity revolves around tokenized RWA and the DeFi protocol that has integrated the network. When 420,000 wallets hold RWA on a chain without token incentives, this is a stronger signal of organic demand than most cryptocurrency indicators.

The broader RWA market provides further context. The number of RWA holders on all chains has grown from approximately 375,000 a year ago to 1.09 million. About half of the holders are concentrated in only two chains, highlighting the dominant position of BNB chain and Robin Hood chain in shaping the next stage of development of on-chain finance.
