Centrifuge Expands Tokenized Assets to Solana with $400M Treasury Fund, According to RWA News


Tokenized asset platform Centrifuge announced its expansion into the Solana blockchain, beginning with a $400 million tokenized U.S. Treasury fund managed by Anemoy (JTRSY). This development builds on Centrifuge’s token standard—called “deRWA tokens”—which allows token holders to transfer and utilize tokenized instruments across decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols.

The deJTRSY token can be swapped, lent, or used as collateral, enabling Solana users to earn yield from short-term Treasuries natively within Solana DeFi platforms, starting with decentralized exchange Raydium, lending platform Kamino, and yield aggregator Lulo.

This rollout highlights Solana’s increasing presence in the tokenized real-world asset (RWA) space, a rapidly growing sector that seeks to bring traditional financial instruments such as bonds, funds, and credit onto blockchain technology. According to projections from Boston Consulting Group and Ripple, the tokenized asset market could reach $18.9 trillion by 2033.

Recently, the Solana Foundation partnered with bank-focused blockchain technology firm R3 to integrate real-world assets into Solana, while a Securitize-issued tokenized fund of Apollo credit assets is also being introduced to Solana’s DeFi protocols.

“Tokenizing assets is just the starting point,” said Bhaji Illuminati, CEO of Centrifuge. “What truly matters is giving real-world assets utility onchain: making them usable across the DeFi stack from day one.”
