Ondo Finance Recognized by White House as RWA Tokenization Trailblazer – Here’s Why It Matters
The White House just spotlighted Ondo Finance as a linchpin in the real-world asset (RWA) tokenization revolution—and Wall Street hasn't even finished its morning coffee.
Why it's a big deal
Tokenized RWAs are eating traditional finance alive. Ondo's infrastructure lets institutions wade into blockchain without getting their loafers wet. No surprise the feds took notice.
The cynical take
Banks will pretend they invented this in 2026 after fighting it tooth-and-nail. Ondo's already building the rails while legacy finance argues about compliance.
Bottom line: The future's being coded—and the White House just validated the players writing the script.
Ondo Finance Spotlighted in White House Report
In the recent report from the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets, Ondo was featured as a core example of how tokenized systems operate—further cementing its role at the forefront of the Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization movement. According to the report, industry estimates suggest that over $600 billion in RWAs could be tokenized by 2030, including money market fund shares, fixed-income instruments, private credit, and private fund shares.
The report highlights that firms are approaching tokenization through two primary models: either building private, permissioned blockchains or deploying permissioned layers on top of public, permissionless networks. Ondo stands out for its hybrid approach—leveraging public infrastructure while maintaining institutional-grade compliance. A detailed chart in the report even uses Ondo to illustrate the end-to-end tokenization process.
Crucially, the regulatory status of tokenized assets is determined not by the act of tokenization itself, but by the nature of the underlying asset. Since most current tokenization volume involves securities such as fixed income and private credit, these assets are generally subject to securities regulation. However, the report also notes the growing presence of tokenized commodities like Gold and tokenized non-financial assets such as real estate and rare collectibles.
Ondo’s inclusion in the White House report signals growing mainstream and regulatory acknowledgment of tokenized finance. With its flagship US Treasury-backed products and expansion into tokenized equities via Ondo Chain, the protocol is poised to play a major role in shaping the digital financial infrastructure of the next decade.
Price Action Details: Key Level To Watch
Ondo has reclaimed the $0.99 level after a volatile pullback, gaining nearly 5% on the day. The recent price bounce comes after testing the 50-day moving average (MA) at $0.86 as support, which coincides with a key psychological threshold and prior accumulation range. This area has historically triggered renewed interest from buyers, especially after sharp corrections like the one seen in mid-July.
However, ONDO remains below the 200-day MA at $0.97, which now acts as immediate resistance. The token broke above this level last week after bullish momentum pushed the price past $1.20 but failed to hold the highs as sellers took profits. A sustained close above the 200-day MA could re-establish bullish control and open the path back toward the $1.20 zone.
The structure still reflects a broader recovery from the multi-month downtrend that started in January 2025. If ONDO can consolidate above $0.95 and reclaim $1.05, it could mark a new higher low and signal trend continuation. On the other hand, losing the 50-day MA again WOULD invalidate the current bounce and suggest a deeper retest toward $0.85 or even $0.78 support.
