Ondo Global Markets, launched in September 2025, has expanded rapidly and surpassed $1 billion in total value locked within eight months. The platform now lists more than 260 U.S. stocks and ETFs across Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Chain. Ondo Finance President Ian De Bode projects that tokenized equities could reach $3 billion by the end of 2026.
Ondo Global Markets became the largest tokenized equity platform within 48 hours of launch. It reached $240 million in total value locked within two weeks, then crossed $500 million by January 2026 and doubled that figure by May. The platform’s weekly growth has ranged between 3% and 5%.
According to RWA.xyz, Ondo has processed more than $18 billion in cumulative trading volume and holds over 70% market share among tokenized equity issuers.
The broader tokenized asset market has grown 47% year to date. Over the same period, the S&P 500 has gained 5%, the Nasdaq has risen 7%, and the Dow Jones has increased 3%. U.S. bonds posted a 0.3% rise.
Ondo offers tokenized stocks that track total return, including dividends. Each token is fully backed by underlying securities held within a U.S.-registered broker-dealer. Trading is available 24 hours a day, five days a week.
Ondo has expanded partnerships aimed at strengthening infrastructure and compliance. In May 2026, it completed a cross-border redemption of tokenized U.S. Treasuries with J.P. Morgan, Mastercard, and Ripple, with the transaction settling in under five seconds.
Franklin Templeton has tokenized five ETFs through Ondo’s platform. Broadridge partnered with Ondo in April to enable on-chain proxy voting, allowing token holders of more than 250 stocks and ETFs to vote directly from their wallets.
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation added Ondo to its tokenized securities consortium, which also includes BlackRock and Goldman Sachs. Production trades are scheduled to begin in July 2026.
Ondo has received regulatory approval to offer tokenized stocks and ETFs across 30 EU and EEA countries, opening access to over 500 million potential investors. The company has also acquired a U.S. broker-dealer to manage compliance directly.
Ondo confidentially filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing would position it as the first issuer of transferable tokenized stocks under full SEC reporting rules. De Bode said, “The tokenized stock I can freely move it around,” while describing future functionality related to margin and collateral use.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
