June 9, 2026
Citi has released its latest report, Tokenization 2030: Wall Street On-Chain, exploring how tokenized assets could transform global financial markets over the coming decade. Applied Blockchain Founder & CEO Adi Ben-Ari contributed to the report, sharing his perspective on the factors that will drive adoption and scale.
Adi notes that tokenization’s path to scale is ultimately driven by economics: delivering better returns at lower cost. The report examines the opportunities, challenges, and regulatory developments that could shape a market worth between $1 trillion and $5 trillion by 2030.
“Tokenization’s path to scale is simple in principle: better returns at lower cost. Deliver that, and a $1–5 trillion market by 2030 is plausible, with regulation shaping the pace.”
