# Overview

These guidelines define how DeFiLlama classifies, measures, and displays tokenized real-world assets on the [RWA dashboard](https://defillama.com/rwa). They cover evidence flags, metric definitions, access models, RWA classification rules, column definitions, type taxonomy, category taxonomy, and asset class taxonomy.

The goal is consistent asset classification so that users can understand how assets are categorized and measured, and compare assets using standardized metrics.

The RWA section is split into two dashboards:

* [**RWA Dashboard**](https://defillama.com/rwa) — tracks tokenized assets, stablecoins, funds, credit, wrappers, and governance tokens.
* [**RWA Perps Dashboard**](https://defillama.com/rwa/perps) — tracks perpetual futures markets tied to real-world reference assets such as equities, commodities, bonds, and ETFs.
