According to Odaily Planet Daily, as gold, silver, and platinum prices hit record highs, the scale of on-chain commodity tokenization continues to climb, currently approaching $4 billion. TradingView data shows that spot gold once rose to $4,530 per ounce; RWA.xyz data shows that the scale of tokenized commodities has grown by approximately 11% in the past month, reaching $3.93 billion. Among them, Tether Gold (XAUT) accounts for approximately $1.74 billion and Paxos Gold (PAXG) for approximately $1.61 billion, together dominating the market. The report points out that tokenized precious metals enable on-chain 24/7 transfers and transactions, but pricing, liquidity, and redemption still rely on traditional financial infrastructure. As part of the broader RWA sector, investment bank Standard Chartered predicts that by 2028, the scale of tokenized RWA (excluding stablecoins) will increase to $2 trillion, of which approximately $250 billion will flow to low-liquidity assets such as private equity and commodities. In terms of the underlying network, Ethereum remains dominant, currently handling approximately 65% of tokenized RWA transactions, worth about $12.7 billion; BNB Chain ranks second, accounting for about 10.5%. However, on-chain data shows that RWA-related activities still account for a lower percentage of overall transaction fees and transactions compared to mature use cases such as stablecoin and token trading.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, 2025 saw the largest prediction market in history, with Polymarket and Kalshi becoming industry leaders amid a massive influx of capital, increased media attention, and multi-billion dollar valuations. With the 2026 US midterm elections approaching, the market widely believes this event could become a major trading opportunity similar to the 2024 presidential election, but both companies will face the crucial test of proving their prediction value on a large scale. The report points out that despite rapid growth in trading volume and user attention, the industry still faces controversies such as the authenticity of trading volume, limited revenue scale, and unclear regulatory boundaries. Meanwhile, large platforms such as Robinhood and Coinbase have entered the prediction market field, further expanding their user base, but new contract formats such as sports betting and mention markets also raise potential regulatory and market manipulation risks.
