Will Avalanche Be the First RWA Coin to Cross $10B Market Cap?

• Avalanche (AVAX) is closest to a $10B market cap, currently valued at $8.04 billion with a price of $20.35 per coin.
• Chainlink (LINK) trails with a market cap of $6.22 billion, bolstered by its Data Streams and VRF launch on the Base platform.
• Ondo, the smallest competitor, has a market cap of $996.36 million, with analysts predicting a potential price increase to $1.60.

Avalanche (AVAX) is leading the pack among Real World Asset (RWA) coins in the race to hit a $10 billion market cap. With a current price of $20.35, AVAX has a market cap of $8.04 billion, placing it closest to this milestone.

Despite a 3.21% drop in the last 24 hours, Avalanche’s strong ecosystem and the recent launch of applications for its Codebase Season 2 incubator position it for continued growth. This initiative invites builders to apply for a $50,000 non-dilutive stipend and compete for a share of the $1 million prize pool, which is likely to drive further interest in the network.

Chainlink (LINK) is also in the race, priced at $10.23 with a market cap of $6.22 billion. LINK experienced a slight decline of 3.25% in the last 24 hours. Moreover, Chainlink has been expanding its reach, with its Data Streams and Verifiable Random Function (VRF) now live on Base, a platform incubated by Coinbase.

Maker (MKR), although priced higher at $1,966.24 per coin, has a smaller market cap of $1.83 billion. Maker has seen a 4.24% decline in the last 24 hours. However, it remains a key player in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space, particularly due to its role in maintaining the stability of the DAI stablecoin. 

Subsequently, VeChain (VET) is priced at $0.022084 and a market cap of $1.79 billion, has declined by 4.12% in the last 24 hours. Despite its strong focus on supply chain solutions and partnerships with major corporations, VeChain has a long way to go before it can compete with the likes of Avalanche and Chainlink.

Ondo, priced at $0.716933 with a market cap of $996.36 million, is the smallest of the group. Ondo has experienced a 2.90% drop in the last 24 hours. As per Changellyblog, Ondo’s price in 2025 is expected to have a minimum of around $1.28. The maximum projected price could be approximately $1.50, with an average trading price of around $1.32.

Avalanche leads the RWA race toward a $10B market cap, but Chainlink’s growth and Maker’s DeFi dominance keep the competition intense.
