        "summary": "The tokenisation of real-world assets (RWA), including stocks and gold, has experienced rapid growth, with the market capitalisation reaching $39.6 billion (approximately Rp 693.67 trillion) as of 8 May 2026, a significant surge from $1.8 billion at the start of 2024. Major financial institutions like BlackRock, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs are entering the space, positioning tokenisation as a new foundation for global financial infrastructure, enabling retail investors to access global assets with minimal capital starting from Rp 11,000. This blockchain-based mechanism offers instant, 24\/7 trading with enhanced transparency and self-custody options, democratising investment in assets like Apple and Nvidia shares or physical gold via tokens such as PAXG.",
        "content": "<p>The real-world assets (RWA) tokenisation sector has recorded rapid\ngrowth over the past two years. According to data from RWA.xyz as of 8\nMay 2026, cited by Pintu Academy, the market capitalisation of asset\ntokenisation has reached $39.6 billion, equivalent to approximately Rp\n693.67 trillion (assuming an exchange rate of Rp 17,517 per US dollar).\nThis value has surged sharply compared to the beginning of 2024, when it\nwas still at $1.8 billion, or about Rp 31.53 trillion. Asset\ntokenisation represents a digital representation of real-world assets\nsuch as US stocks, bonds, or gold, issued in the form of tokens on a\nblockchain network. Each token maintains a 1:1 value ratio with the\nunderlying asset. Through this mechanism, real-world assets can be\ntraded digitally, with transactions occurring in seconds, available 24\nhours a day, and featuring transparency based on blockchain technology.\nThe entry of several major global financial institutions, such as\nBlackRock, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs, is seen as indicating that\ntokenisation is developing into a new foundation for global financial\ninfrastructure. One of the most popular instruments currently is the\ntokenisation of global stocks and commodities. Technology company stocks\nlike Apple and Nvidia, as well as gold commodities through tokens like\nPAXG, have become products eagerly sought by investors. Through\ntokenisation, retail investors can now purchase fractions of global\nassets without needing large capital or going through complicated\ncross-border investment processes. \u201cInvestors can buy US company stocks\nand physical gold with capital starting from Rp 11,000,\u201d stated PINTU in\na press release on Tuesday (12 May 2026). The implementation of a\nself-custody system on blockchain also allows investors to have direct\ncontrol over their assets without fully relying on third parties like\nbrokers. In traditional asset schemes, buying and selling processes\ngenerally still depend on brokers, exchanges, and market conditions. In\ncontrast, with asset tokenisation, transactions can be conducted\ninstantly.<\/p>",
