Trump’s presidential election win has sent the market into a buying frenzy, with almost all major cryptocurrencies seeing a surge in buying volume and value.
Real-world asset (RWA) tokens have also caught a significant bid, sending some of the biggest winners skyrocketing.

Let’s dive in and take a closer look at what’s happening right now.

Market Overview

On Nov. 5, 2024, it was announced that Donald Trump would become the 47th President of the United States—defeating rival Vice President Kamala Harris in a decisive victory.

As arguably the more pro-crypto candidate, given his plan to establish the U.S. as the home of cryptocurrency by cutting through red tape and establishing a Federal Bitcoin reserve, his win sent the market soaring.

Bitcoin (BTC) smashed through its previous all-time high value to reach a peak of over $76,200 before retracing to its current price of around $74,900.

The market capitalization of all altcoins (besides ETH) has begun to show signs of positive momentum and is up more than 6% in a week. The OTHERS market cap currently sits at $528.2 billion, up from $498 billion this time last week.

Meanwhile, the CMC Fear and Greed Index has just shifted into the “greed” range with a value of 70—its highest value since April this year.

The altcoin season index now sits at 34/100, as altcoins have clawed back some market dominance from Bitcoin.

RWA Market Update

On the back of the recent Trump win and subsequent BTC rally, the RWA token sector has seen a surge of interest.

Looking at the Top Real World Asset Tokens Page, you’ll notice that practically every RWA token has surged in the last 24 hours.
Some of the best performers have managed to tack on more than 20% in the last day, including Hathor (HTR) at +49.6%, Parcl (PRCL) at +32.3%, and Boson Protocol (BOSON) at +19.4%.

Most RWA tokens are also up over the last seven days. Indeed, seven of the top 10 largest RWA tokens are in the green over the last week.

The best performers among the top 10 are:

For comparison, the biggest losers among the top 10 largest RWA tokens in the past week are:

Zooming further out, most RWA tokens are still in a recent downtrend in terms of both price action and search volume.

According to Google Search analytics, the number of searches for both “real world assets” and “RWA” has declined in recent months.
