Citi: Tokenized Securities Market Could Reach $55 Trillion by the 2030s
June 1: Citigroup’s latest report, “Tokenization 2030: Wall Street On-Chain,” projects the real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market will expand from roughly $17 billion now to $55 trillion by 2030. Depending on adoption speed, that market could hit a range of $27 trillion to $82 trillion.
The report forecasts that by 2030, around 10% of the U.S. short-term Treasury bond market and 3% of the U.S. public equities market will be tokenized. Additionally, the growth of the stablecoin market may spark an extra $1 trillion in demand for U.S. Treasury bonds. If 10% of U.S. retail investors shift to digital trading platforms, that would generate roughly $26 trillion in demand for digital stocks.
Citigroup notes that as traditional financial assets increasingly move onto blockchain, tokenization is set to serve as a key bridge connecting Wall Street to blockchain infrastructure—and driving the digital transformation of global capital markets.

Vietnam Proposes Allowing Digital Assets as Bank Loan Collateral to Drive Cryptocurrency Integration into the Formal Financial System
On June 1, FinanceFeeds reported that Vietnam’s Ministry of Finance has submitted a draft amendment to its SME Support Law. The proposal would let domestic credit institutions accept digital assets and virtual assets as legitimate collateral for commercial bank loans. Its goals are to overhaul the long-standing financing model that relies on physical assets (like real estate) as primary collateral, unlock liquidity in Vietnam’s crypto asset market, and expand financing pathways for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Per the report, Vietnam has about 930,000 SMEs—making up over 98% of all registered businesses in the country—but these firms currently only access 19% to 20% of credit resources from the national banking system. Under the amendment, commercial banks would be allowed to include digital assets, intellectual property, movable property, and future assets in their collateral scope. They would also be able to extend more loans based on an enterprise’s cash flow, credit

By 2025, 65% of cryptocurrency theft incidents involved social engineering attacks, with total annual fraud losses reaching $17 billion.
June 1st, Chainalysis research finds social engineering attacks have become the leading source of financial losses in the cryptocurrency industry. AMLBot data shows approximately 65% of cryptocurrency theft cases investigated in 2025 involved social engineering tactics, while Chainalysis estimates total global crypto fraud losses reached roughly $17 billion that year.
