The XRP Ledger (XRPL) now holds about $3.6 billion in real-world assets (RWA), excluding stablecoins, marking the biggest 30-day jump in its RWA category. This growth centers on tokenized energy commodities, particularly the JMWH token backed by energy companies. The surge highlights XRPL's role as a ledger for energy contracts and traceability.
