Strands Surpasses $1.2 Billion in Real-World Asset Volume in Under Two Weeks

Powered by a 50,000 OP Token Grant from the Optimism Foundation, Strands drives the RWA Revolution.
Chicago, IL - March 11, 2025 - Strands Technologies Ltd., a pioneering financial technology platform, has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing $1.2 billion in volume of real-world assets (RWAs) within just 10 days of launching Alpha Phase 2. Commencing operations on February 18, 2025, and bolstered by a 50,000 OP token grant from the Optimism Foundation ("OP"), Strands is reshaping the RWA landscape with impressive speed and scale.

As of February 28, 2025, Strands recorded $1.2 billion in volume, capitalizing on the rapidly expanding RWA market where tangible assets, derivatives, and securities are tokenized and enhanced through blockchain technology. This achievement underscores Strands' ability to deliver efficiency, security, and scalability in a sector witnessing exponential growth. With tokenized asset values exceeding $17 billion on-chain in early 2025 and projections estimating a $10 trillion market by 2030, RWAs are poised to redefine the financial landscape. The first wave of basic RWAs focused on bringing yield on-chain were propelled by major institutions such as BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Fidelity. Strands' technology will power the next generation of far more sophisticated RWAs.

"Surpassing $1.2 billion in volume within 10 days signals that RWAs are not just the future-they're happening now, and Strands is at the forefront," said Tim Gorham, CEO of Strands. "The 50,000 OP token grant from the Optimism Foundation incentivized adoption, positioning OP as the frontrunner for next-generation RWAs."

This OP token grant incentivized sophisticated trader adoption, the key driver of volume. The partnership aligns with Optimism's vision of expanding on-chain finance, positioning Strands and OP as a key player in the next wave of financial innovation.

Innovations such as fractional ownership and yield-generating opportunities are attracting billions in investment. Strands' technology enables next-generation RWAs, which represents a paradigm shift in the space. Strands' rapid ascent demonstrates how blockchain technology revolutionizes asset markets that traditionally were constrained by legacy financial systems.

"We're not just participating in the RWA market-we are completely redefining it," added Gorham. "With Optimism's support and our early momentum, the launch of our generation-defining technology marks the beginning of a new era in global finance."

Strands is now poised to tokenize all listed securities, leveraging its momentum in a rapidly evolving market. As RWAs continue to reshape the financial ecosystem, Strands remains at the helm of this transformative wave.
