A Special Thank You to Our Sponsor:

The State of the Tokenization Industry 2024 report is made possible thanks to SteelWave Digital. SWD is the digital arm of SteelWave, a San Mateo-based, successful institutional real estate firm with decades of experience and a transaction history in the size of multiple billions for commercial real estate. SWD was formed as a subsidiary dedicated to digitization and innovation of SteelWave real estate and capital market activities. This venture does not replace their traditional deal structures — but offers a new universe of deal capitalization adding to and complementing their existing capabilities.

SWD announced in May of this year that a $500 Million SteelWave fund will be using the blockchain to offer a token for exposure to the fund backed by commercial real estate. Both the size of this offer and the track record of the issuer speaks volumes to where the real estate tokenization industry has come today.

Your Second Captivating Topic of the Week

📈 The Fed Funds Rate and Security Tokens

The public markets have seen a nose dive amid the Nikkei crashing and recent numbers in unemployment (4.3%) among other catalysts. This has translated into the crypto markets as well, evidenced by the CD20 below, which was outperformed by our hypothetical security token basket according to our June 2024 report.

We’ll be benchmarking against the CD20 again in our July report (coming soon) but in the meantime this news may worth keeping up with. Will tokenized RWAs also see similar behavior? Aside from tokenized stocks, a few we’ll be keeping an eye on in August are the 3 tokenized WisdomTree Siegel funds which leverage insights from Professor Jeremy J. Siegel, Senior Economist to WisdomTree and Professor Emeritus of Finance at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania:

  • WisdomTree Siegel Global Equity Digital Fund (EQTYX)

  • WisdomTree Siegel Longevity Digital Fund (LNGVX)

  • WisdomTree Siegel Moderate Digital Fund (MODRX)

Why do I bring him up?
He was recently on SquawkBox expressing his views on the market downturn and calling for a 75 bps emergency cut in the Fed funds rate and another in September.

Will the liquidity products such as BUIDL, BENJI, and WTGXX see some movement? Are private alternative assets going to shine?

Great questions, let’s see what the July report says for last month and where we go throughout August and September.
