The Tokenized Commodities Market in 2026: Evolution, Adoption, and Outlook

Tokenized commodities scaled rapidly over the past year, expanding its AUM from $1.37B to $5.46B YoY, representing an annual growth of ~300%. While the sector growth has accelerated, this expansion is largely attributed to increased demand for precious metals, specifically gold. The top 2 tokenized gold assets XAUT by Tether and PAXG by Paxos, collectively hold ~95% market share of total tokenized commodities. That concentration is not a weakness in itself.
