Ondo Global Markets, the tokenized securities arm of ONDO Finance, has crossed $1 billion in total value locked (TVL) in tokenized US stocks and ETFs. It reached the ten-figure milestone in under eight months from launch, becoming the first platform in this category to do so.

The platform operates on Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Chain and provides onchain access to more than 260 tokenized stocks and ETFs across various sectors.
Ondo Global Markets’ TVL doubled since January 2026, rising from about $500 million to $1 billion in roughly four to five months.

Ondo’s $1 billion in tokenized stocks TVL is the first instance of a live platform reaching that threshold in a category that has emerged only within the past year. The reported 70%+ market share points to first-mover dominance in a market still in its early stages.
The platform’s cumulative $18 billion in trading volume suggests liquidity has already developed to a meaningful level.
BlackRock’s tokenized treasury fund and Franklin Templeton’s blockchain-based money market fund, alongside Ondo’s tokenized equities, are collectively building a case that traditional finance is moving onchain. The custodial structure—where underlying securities are held by regulated entities—introduces a layer of counterparty risk that does not exist with purely onchain assets.
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…
