How has the weighting of Asset Backed Tokens (ABTs) changed?

Question

Accepted Answer

ABTs’ share of total digital-asset market capitalisation rose to 2.05% as of 31 May 2026, up from 0.91% in the 2025 2H review.

As of 31 May 2026, Asset Backed Tokens (ABTs) made up 2.05% of the total market capitalisation of digital assets, increasing from 0.91% in the 2025 2H review. The 1H 2026 review also noted that ABTs were classified within a three-tier system (asset type, branch, and sub-branch), but it did not provide branch-level or asset-type-level weighting changes within the ABT category.
ABTs’ market capitalisation weighting increased from 2025 2H to 1H 2026
The weighting figure for ABTs is expressed as a percentage of total digital-asset market capitalisation. In the 1H 2026 results, ABTs accounted for 2.05% as of 31 May 2026, compared with 0.91% in the 2025 2H review.
ABTs’ internal structure is defined, but individual weighting shifts are not shown
The classification system defines ABTs using Tier 1 as asset type, Tier 2 as branch, and Tier 3 as sub-branch, with 6 asset types and 32 branches stated for ABTs. While the review confirms these counts remained in place, it does not disclose how the weighting changed inside ABTs by asset type (such as Natural Resources or Green Economy) or by specific branches.
The ABTs coverage expanded in the next review window
IX Asia Tokenisation Advisory Committee decided to expand coverage to “50 coins + stablecoins within top 50” starting from the next review. The current 1H 2026 review coverage figures are framed around the top 50 coins by average market capitalisation over the prior 90 days, and methodology details for weightings are set to be available on the index website.
Only two ABTs were classified in 1H 2026
For 1H 2026, DAICS® classified 2 ABTs: Tether Gold (XAUT) and PAX Gold (PAXG). In the ABT category, the review lists these as the ABTs included, while still not providing any numerical weighting breakdown between them or across ABT branches.
