RWA & Tokenization ·
Securitize has launched onchain trading of tokenized US equities, making these securities accessible to global eligible investors. The platform enables trading of these digital representations of stocks on blockchain infrastructure, expanding the traditional equity market into decentralized environments.
The launch represents an effort to bridge traditional finance and blockchain technology, allowing investors meeting eligibility criteria to participate in US stock ownership through tokenized assets. This approach leverages blockchain's settlement and transfer capabilities while maintaining regulatory compliance for eligible participants.
It remains unclear which specific US equities are initially available for tokenization, the precise mechanics of price discovery and custody arrangements, or the timeline for broader market expansion under applicable securities regulations.
