- Ondo Global Markets offers 24/7 onchain exposure to U.S. stocks and ETFs
- Over 100 U.S. securities are now available – with plans to expand to 1,000 by year-end
- Available to qualifying global (non-U.S.) investors, making Ondo one of the largest gateways to U.S. markets for global investors
- Building on the success of stablecoins, Ondo delivers open transferability for tokenized stocks and ETFs, in contrast to closed-platform offerings
New York, September 3, 2025: Ondo Finance and the Ondo Foundation, the leaders in tokenized real-world assets, today announced the launch of Ondo Global Markets, enabling non-U.S. investors to seamlessly access over 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs on Ethereum, with plans to scale to over 1,000 assets by year-end. Available now for eligible Asia-Pacific, European, African, and Latin American investors, Ondo Global Markets is one of the largest gateways for global exposure to U.S. markets.
Now live on Ethereum and soon expanding to BNB Chain and Solana, Ondo Global Markets marks a new era in democratized financial access. Non-U.S. retail and institutional users around the world can instantly mint and redeem tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs, 24 hours a day, five days a week, with access to traditional exchange liquidity (subject to jurisdictional and other restrictions). The assets provide exposure to the total economic return of U.S. stocks and ETFs, and are fully backed and secured by those assets held at one or more U.S.-registered broker-dealers and cash in transit.
Many tokenized stock offerings today remain confined to siloed platforms with restricted transferability, or suffer from low liquidity. Ondo takes a different path: Global Markets is designed for accessibility, giving investors the ability to transfer tokenized equities across wallets, exchanges, and protocols, while providing seamless onchain access to robust traditional exchange liquidity across hundreds of stocks.
Ondo tokenized stocks are supported by leading crypto wallets, exchanges, protocols, and infrastructure providers, including Bitget Wallet, Trust Wallet, OKX Wallet, Gate, 1inch, BitGo, Ledger, LayerZero, Chainlink, Morpho, Gauntlet, CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, Alpaca and more.
“Ondo Global Markets is a breakthrough in financial access,” said Nathan Allman, Founder and CEO of Ondo Finance. “Global investors can now access the largest selection of transferable tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs onchain. We saw stablecoins export the U.S. dollar by bringing it onchain. Now, Ondo Global Markets is doing the same thing for U.S. securities.”
Breaking Barriers to U.S. Markets
Global investors have historically faced barriers to accessing the $64 trillion U.S. securities markets due to high fees, limited access, transfer frictions, platform fragmentation, and geographic exclusions. These problems have persisted for decades, locking millions out of capital markets and stifling innovation. Ondo Global Markets breaks through these limitations with distinct features:
- 100+ Assets Live, 1,000+ Coming – Leading tokenized stocks and ETFs are now available, with plans to scale to 1,000+ by year-end.
- Transferable 24/7 – Tokenized stocks and ETFs are transferable peer-to-peer and available 24/7/365.
- Deep Liquidity – Global Markets provides access to traditional exchange liquidity for onchain investors.
- Usable in DeFi – Ondo assets behave like stablecoins for ease of use and automation, enabling tokenized stocks to be used in DeFi. Chainlink serves as the price oracle for DeFi integrations at launch.
- Secure Backing – Ondo tokenized stocks are fully backed and secured by U.S. stocks and ETFs held at one or more U.S.-registered broker-dealers and cash in transit.
- Live on Ethereum – First platform to bring tokenized U.S. equities to Ethereum at scale, with Solana and BNB Chain support coming soon with interoperability powered by LayerZero.
