Ondo Finance says its tokenization push has moved deeper into traditional finance as it expanded tokenized stocks and treasury products, secured regulatory approvals, and strengthened partnerships with major Wall Street institutions.
In a May 1, 2026 update, Ondo shared comments from executives at Fidelity, S&P Global, and DTCC. The leaders characterized tokenization as a potentially large opportunity for global markets, with remarks including that “the opportunity truly is in the trillions” and that “over two-thirds of the world’s assets” could be covered.
Ondo said the comments reflect a broader shift in traditional finance, as large institutions explore blockchain-based rails to manage, transfer, and settle assets more efficiently.
A key driver of growth, according to Ondo, came from Ondo Global Markets, launched on Ethereum during 2025. The platform introduced more than 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs for blockchain users.
Ondo said the tokenized assets are fully backed 1:1 by underlying securities. It also stated the assets are transferable across DeFi ecosystems while maintaining access to liquidity from Nasdaq and NYSE markets.
The company reported that its tokenized stock platform became the largest in the sector by market share. Ondo also cited $2 billion in total trading volume and $370 million in total value locked.
To improve accessibility, Ondo launched Ondo Bridge to connect tokenized securities between Ethereum and BNB Chain, expanding exposure for additional blockchain users.
Ondo also confirmed plans to expand access to Solana in early 2026, aiming to increase distribution across major blockchain networks.
Ondo said it strengthened its regulatory infrastructure through the acquisition of Oasis Pro, which it described as providing access to SEC-registered broker-dealer, transfer agent, and ATS licenses. Ondo said these approvals support its efforts to develop compliant tokenized securities markets in the United States.
The firm also reported authorization to distribute tokenized stocks and ETFs across the European Union and EEA.
Ondo highlighted institutional partnerships including Fidelity, which integrated Ondo’s OUSG product into its tokenized fund strategy.
It also said J.P. Morgan’s Kinexys collaborated with Ondo and Chainlink on cross-chain settlement.
In payments, Ondo reported that PayPal expanded its partnership through a $25 million facility linking PYUSD with OUSG. It added that Mastercard included Ondo in its Multi-Token Network, extending blockchain payment infrastructure into tokenized finance.
With institutional adoption of real-world assets continuing to rise, Ondo said its tokenization efforts are becoming a larger factor in digital capital markets.
