Tradable targets $1B in tokenized private credit on Stellar

Tokenization platform Tradable is moving up to $1 billion in private credit assets onto the Stellar blockchain. The initiative will launch with $500 million in notional value before scaling to the full $1 billion target over time, though a specific launch date was not disclosed. Stellar’s network will be used to handle core institutional functions for these funds, including compliance, investor onboarding and asset lifecycle management.

This integration expands the distribution of assets that Tradable has already brought onchain. The firm currently holds $1.7 billion in tokenized private credit across roughly 30 institutional-grade positions. By leveraging Stellar’s infrastructure, Tradable aims to make these traditionally illiquid markets more accessible to large-scale institutional buyers.

Institutional momentum

For Stellar, the agreement underscores a deliberate shift toward traditional finance infrastructure. "The agreement reflects growing institutional interest in using the network for tokenized real-world assets," said Denelle Dixon, CEO of the Stellar Development Foundation. The blockchain has actively courted legacy financial players, most notably securing a planned integration with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s tokenization service.

The partnership highlights a broader shift in the digital asset space, where utility is increasingly measured by the adoption of real-world assets rather than volatile cryptocurrencies. The tokenized RWA market has surpassed $34 billion in value, experiencing rapid expansion since early 2025 according to data from RWA.xyz. This growth is being primarily driven by private credit, which Bernstein analysts note accounts for roughly 44% of the entire tokenized RWA sector.

Financial institutions are adopting blockchain technology specifically to streamline how private loans are originated, serviced and settled. Research from Token Terminal attributes the current expansion directly to the ongoing migration of traditional financial assets onto distributed networks. Bernstein has previously highlighted Figure Technology Solutions as a key driver of this trend due to its blockchain-based lending platform. For investors, the Tradable deal signals that blockchain infrastructure is successfully penetrating the operational backend of private markets.
