Tradable, a platform specializing in tokenization, plans to transfer up to $1 billion in private credit assets onto the Stellar blockchain. This initiative aims to enhance institutional access to tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), responding to a growing trend among investors seeking onchain opportunities in private markets.
Major push for tokenized private credit
Tradable announced that it expects to have $500 million in private credit assets ready at launch, with the goal of increasing that figure to $1 billion over time. The company did not specify the launch date for this new offering.
The integration will leverage Stellar’s network for a range of institutional functions, including compliance procedures, onboarding of investors, and managing the asset lifecycle. This move is designed to streamline the process of bringing traditional finance products onto blockchain-based infrastructure.
Denelle Dixon, CEO of the Stellar Development Foundation, stated that this agreement illustrates the growing interest among institutions in using Stellar for tokenized real-world assets.
Denelle Dixon, CEO of Stellar Development Foundation, highlighted that increased institutional activity on Stellar reflects a broader shift toward blockchain-based tokenized assets.
Tradable has already established itself in the sector, with $1.7 billion in private credit assets tokenized across nearly 30 institutional-grade positions. The collaboration with Stellar will further expand access to these tokenized assets for a wider range of institutional participants.
Stellar’s broader real-world asset strategy
Stellar is one of the longest-standing public blockchains, and in recent years has intensified its focus on tokenized real-world assets. The network’s strategy has attracted institutional partners globally, including the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). The DTCC, a leading provider of clearing and settlement services, is preparing to connect its own tokenization service to the Stellar network.
Recent developments point to strong growth and rising adoption of tokenized RWAs. Data from RWA.xyz shows that the overall value of the sector has grown above $34 billion, driven largely by institutional participation and increasing confidence in blockchain-based financial infrastructure.

Private credit drives market expansion
Private credit has become the largest segment within the tokenized RWA market, reportedly accounting for around 44% of the sector’s value, according to analysts at Bernstein. The segment has grown as more financial institutions leverage blockchain technology to originate, service, and settle private loans efficiently.
In a research note released in May, Bernstein analysts cited Figure Technology Solutions, a provider of blockchain-based lending platforms and settlement solutions, as a significant driver of growth in this market.
Research firm Token Terminal has also pointed to the critical role of private credit in the broader tokenization trend, highlighting the continuing transfer of traditional financial assets to blockchain infrastructure.
The rapid expansion of tokenized private credit mirrors an accelerating migration of legacy assets into the blockchain ecosystem, as institutions pursue improved efficiency and access in private capital markets.
