Tradable Plans Up to $1 Billion in Private Credit Tokenization on Stellar

Tokenization platform Tradable plans to bring up to $1 billion in private credit assets onto the Stellar blockchain, expanding institutional access to tokenized real-world assets as demand for onchain private markets continues to grow. According to Cointelegraph, Tradable said Thursday that $500 million in notional value is expected to be available when the initiative launches, with the amount set to rise to $1 billion over time. The company will use Stellar’s network to support institutional functions including compliance, investor onboarding and asset lifecycle management. The timing of the initiative’s launch was not disclosed.

Stellar Development Foundation CEO Denelle Dixon said the agreement reflects growing institutional interest in using the network for tokenized real-world assets. The move builds on Tradable’s existing business, with the company saying it has already tokenized $1.7 billion in private credit assets across nearly 30 institutional-grade private credit positions. The Stellar integration is expected to expand the availability of those assets. Stellar, one of the oldest public blockchains, has increasingly focused on tokenized real-world assets and has attracted institutional partners, including the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, which plans to connect its tokenization service to the network. The developments come amid broader momentum in the tokenized RWA market, where institutional adoption has helped push the sector’s value above $34 billion, according to RWA.xyz.

Private credit has emerged as the largest segment of the tokenized RWA market, accounting for roughly 44% of the sector’s value, according to Bernstein analysts. The segment has expanded as financial institutions increasingly use blockchain technology to originate, service and settle private loans more efficiently. In a research note published in May, Bernstein cited Figure Technology Solutions as a key driver of that growth, pointing to the company’s blockchain-based lending platform and loan settlement infrastructure. Token Terminal also recently highlighted private credit’s role in fueling the tokenization boom, attributing the expansion to the continued migration of traditional financial assets onto blockchain infrastructure.
