Securitize (NYSE: SECZ) has announced that tokenized stocks will trade on its broker-dealer platform, which uses Solana. Transactions will be settled using Circle’s dollar-based stablecoin USDC.
According to a company statement, the digital securities will be available globally.
Securitize said it will offer popular US equities to eligible investors in the United States, the European Union (EU), and other jurisdictions worldwide. Securitize named the following equities: AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOG, TSLA, META, AMZN, NFLX, CRCL, SPCX, MSTR, and PLTR. The shares are expected to trade 24/7 under the recently announced NYSE/OKX partnership, with round-the-clock trading on OKXICE.
The company stated: “Securitize Stocks are backed 1:1 by underlying shares, structured to preserve the investor rights and economic benefits associated with those shares, and convertible, where available, to direct ownership on the books of the issuer’s transfer agent. The offering is designed to accelerate adoption of issuer-sponsored tokenization as issuers increasingly embrace tokenization.”
The securities will not be lent out but are designed to support other services over time, including “supported lending” and collateral markets like Aave.
The digital assets are expected to be compliant with the SEC’s Innovation Exemption and other Tokenized Securities Venues (TSVs).
Institutional market participants are also expected to participate.
Currently, most “tokenized” shares are wrapped and not blockchain native. Issuer-sponsored native stock is still measured in the hundreds of millions, not billions. Still, over time, insiders anticipate a switch to natively issued and managed digital securities.
As of early October 2026, total on-chain tokenized stock value is about $3.2–3.8 billion, up roughly 4x from around $0.7 billion at the start of the year and about 395% year-on-year. Holders are estimated to be in the 3.8–4.7 million range.
On-chain tokenized-equity trading volume is expected to reach at least $10 billion by June 2027. Securitize is well positioned as a current leader in the space.
Securitize shares rose about 12% today in a down market as investors viewed the announcement positively. The company currently has a market cap of around $2 billion.
