Facility Enables Instant RWA-to-Stablecoin Redemptions
Multiliquid and Metalayer Ventures have deployed an institutional liquidity facility on Solana designed to eliminate redemption delays for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). The new structure allows holders to instantly convert their tokenized asset positions, including funds from VanEck and Janus Henderson, directly into stablecoins. This development directly addresses the liquidity mismatch risk in tokenized money market funds, a concern previously highlighted by the Bank for International Settlements.
The facility functions as a dedicated “standing buyer” for RWAs, purchasing assets at a dynamic discount to their net asset value. Metalayer Ventures provides and manages the capital for these redemptions, while the Multiliquid protocol, developed by Uniform Labs, supplies the smart contract infrastructure for pricing, compliance, and settlement.
Traditional finance has repo markets, prime brokerage and overnight lending facilities. Tokenized markets have had nothing comparable, until now. This is the liquidity infrastructure that institutional RWA markets will require at scale.

Solana's $1.2B RWA Market Grows Over 10%
The new liquidity backstop arrives as Solana gains momentum in the RWA sector. The blockchain currently ranks eighth by total RWA value, representing approximately $1.2 billion across 343 different assets, according to data from RWA.xyz. While its overall market share remains modest at 0.31%, the value of RWAs on Solana has increased by more than 10% in the last month, signaling growing adoption.
This growth positions Solana as a challenger in a market dominated by a few large players. Canton Network leads with over $348 billion in RWAs, commanding an 88% market share. Ethereum and Provenance follow, each holding around $15 billion in tokenized asset value. The introduction of institutional-grade liquidity infrastructure is a strategic move intended to attract more capital to Solana and enhance its competitiveness in the rapidly expanding RWA landscape.
