Entered a DeFi protocol and found the real-world assets actually being used on-chain: DefiLlama’s “RWA DeFi Active TVL” chart has already received around $4 billion. This is on-chain locked collateral in use—not tokenized assets sitting in wallets, and not the entire circulating supply of RWA.

I just saw their chart from August 17: the window runs from 2023 to July 2026. The total amount is pinned to the 4B mark on the chart; the spoken line “nearly 4B” is rounded. Another article dated August 18, written with the same framing, records this frame as $3.98 billion—don’t force it into the same number. The 12 million and “300x” mentioned in the post are their own three-year comparison figures; these two numbers are not printed on the chart.
