- ONDO consolidates near $1.01; a breakout above $1.05 may target $1.30 amid RWA lending demand and TVL growth.
- HBAR tests $0.216 resistance; ETF speculation and SDK upgrades could propel gains if bullish momentum holds.
- LINK eyes $20 as SWIFT integration and CCIP adoption fuel its recovery above key $17 resistance.
David Schwartz, recently emphasized the practical applications of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization in a video for the company’s educational series. The discussion focused on blockchain’s ability to streamline financial instruments like debt, real estate, and yield strategies.
Ripple’s push into tokenization aligns with broader industry trends, as projects like Ondo Finance (ONDO), Hedera (HBAR), and Chainlink (LINK) demonstrate technical and fundamental growth.
Ondo Finance (ONDO) Balances Consolidation with RWA Demand
ONDO trades at $1.01, down 2.77% in 24 hours but up 19.35% over the past week. The token consolidates between $0.975 and $1.04, with a breakout above $1.05 potentially targeting $1.30. Ondo’s protocol, which offers fixed-yield lending backed by tangible assets, holds $1.18 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL).
Its circulating supply of 3.16 billion tokens—against a max of 10 billion—creates supply that could influence price volatility.
Hedera (HBAR) Eyes Key Resistance Amid Institutional Hype
HBAR hovers near $0.2102, a 2.25% daily dip after weeks of gains. The token tests resistance at $0.216, a level that could trigger moves toward $0.28 if breached. Hedera’s Hashgraph technology, known for speed and low fees, underpins partnerships and enterprise use cases. Upcoming events, including a SEC decision on a Hedera ETF and a JavaScript SDK upgrade, may affect near-term momentum. Support sits at $0.195.
Chainlink (LINK) Targets $20 on DeFi and Interoperability Growth
LINK trades at $16.84, up 0.66% daily and 23.37% weekly. The token broke past $15.30 resistance, with $17.50–$18.40 as the next target. Chainlink’s oracle network supports DeFi, cross-chain projects, and pilots with institutions like SWIFT. Sustained closes above $17 could propel LINK toward $20.30, driven by adoption of its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).
Ripple’s focus on RWAs mirrors developments across crypto
Ondo’s lending mechanisms, Hedera’s enterprise infrastructure, and Chainlink’s data solutions each address distinct niches within tokenization. While ONDO and HBAR supply and resistance challenges, LINK’s recovery from yearly lows suggests renewed confidence in decentralized data networks.
Technical patterns and institutional integrations remain key drivers. For ONDO, TVL growth and emission schedules matter. HBAR’s ETF prospects and tech upgrades could sway sentiment. LINK’s price hinges on DeFi expansion and interoperability demand.
As RWA tokenization gains traction, these projects exemplify blockchain’s shift from speculation to utility—a shift Ripple aims to accelerate through education and infrastructure.
