The post RWAs, DePIN, and DeAI at Forefront of 2025 Crypto Cycle appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

RWAs hit $22.5B in May 2025, projected to reach $50B by year-end, driven by DeFi growth. DePIN market projected to hit $3.5T by 2028, transforming physical infrastructure. The DeAI sector grows alongside RWAs and DePINs, powered by networks like Akash. Real-world asset (RWA) tokenization is gaining traction in 2025 as it connects traditional finance with decentralized finance (DeFi). RWA includes converting assets such as real estate, commodities, and government bonds on blockchain networks.  The sector has experienced consistent growth, with on-chain RWAs reaching $22.5 billion by May 2025, an increase of nearly 7% in the past 30 days. Analysts predict the sector will grow to $50 billion by year-end, with long-term projections of reaching $10 trillion by 2030. According to figures from RWA.xyz, the total issuance volume of stock RWAs has hit $445.40 million. Institutional players such as BlackRock, Fidelity, and Goldman Sachs are driving RWAs. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held a tokenization roundtable in May 2025, a signal of regulatory progress. These developments indicate a future in which RWAs will emerge as a dominant force in the 2025 crypto cycle. DePIN – Redefining Physical Infrastructure through Decentralization Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) refers to an emerging market aimed at decentralized physical infrastructure, including computing, storage, and connectivity. Using blockchain technology, DePINs establish decentralized networks that reward contributors for infrastructure. This change could upend telecommunications, IoT, and AI industries. DePIN’s market is reportedly projected to reach $3.5 trillion by 2028. Leading projects in decentralized computing and connectivity include Theta Network and Akash Network. Theta’s EdgeCloud and Akash’s cost-competitive cloud services deliver blockchain solutions for AI workloads and IoT applications. DePIN may provide scalable and cost-effective alternatives to traditional systems with the development of decentralized infrastructure. The increased interest in decentralized energy grids and smart cities continues to…
