ONDO has rebounded after a bullish breakout from a falling wedge pattern. According to analyst Ali, the TD Sequential indicator flashed a buy signal, indicating potential further gains. The RWA Summit on February 6, featuring leaders from BlackRock and Goldman Sachs, has added to its growing relevance.
Other RWA Tokens Show Mixed Performance
While $OM and $ONDO lead the rally, other RWA tokens display varied trends. Maker ($MKR) focuses on integrating RWAs into its ecosystem, using them as collateral for loans. Reserve Rights ($RSR) aims to stabilize its stablecoin by tokenizing real-world assets.
Meanwhile, IOTA has transitioned toward RWA adoption, with transaction fees and staking rewards in its new model. A recent update from IOTA suggests the network will become deflationary in the long run, driven by real-world adoption.
With real-world adoption #RWA & industrial-scale use cases, the network will become deflationary in the long run. Imagine a busy toll road: the heavy trucks 🚛 (=industrial use) pay higher fees, helping subsidize free-flowing traffic for regular drivers 🚙(=average users). 🚦2/4

Price Trends and Comparative Performance
$OM has gained 104% since its uptrend started, making it the best performer among RWA tokens. $ONDO recorded a 104.76% gain, while IOTA followed with an 81.41% increase. Pendle ($PENDLE) saw an 11.03% gain, maintaining relative stability.
Meanwhile, $MKR and $RSR struggled, declining by 43.52% and 58.93%, respectively. The divergence in performance suggests $OM’s rally is not sector wide but rather unique to its market dynamics.
