Ondo Finance today announced that Ondo Global Markets, the leading platform for tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs, has surpassed $1 billion in total value locked (TVL), a first for any tokenized stocks platform. The milestone was reached less than eight months after launch, with TVL doubling since January 2026 and growing at a faster rate than stablecoins.
Ondo Global Markets offers 260+ tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs across Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Chain and is accessible to hundreds of millions of users via leading wallets, exchanges, custodians, and protocols including Binance, Bitget, MetaMask, Blockchain.com, and more.
Each token is fully backed by the underlying security, held in a U.S.-registered broker-dealer, and tracks total return including dividends. Trading runs 24 hours a day, five days a week. The platform holds over 70% market share among tokenized equity issuers, per RWA.xyz.
Ondo Global Markets has also secured regulatory approval to offer tokenized stocks and ETFs across 30 European countries in the EU and EEA, enabling access for more than 500 million investors; the assets were the first tokenized securities admitted for trading in Abu Dhabi Global Markets (ADGM) on Binance’s MTF, which is regulated by the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority. Ondo Global Markets has also confidentially filed a registration statement with the SEC, which, if approved, would make Ondo Global Markets the first issuer of transferable tokenized stocks subject to SEC reporting requirements.
“Crossing $1 billion in total value locked is a validation of the thesis that global investors want access to U.S. capital markets through infrastructure that is more transparent, more accessible, and more efficient than the legacy system,” said Ian De Bode, President of Ondo Finance. “The diversity of assets held, the consistency of net inflows, and the caliber of institutional integration proves that tokenized securities have moved beyond early adoption into a fundamental capital markets product.”
The milestone arrives amid a surge in institutional adoption of tokenized assets. On May 6, J.P. Morgan, Mastercard, Ripple and Ondo announced the first-ever, near-instant, cross-border redemption of tokenized U.S. Treasuries, settling in under five seconds. Earlier this year, Franklin Templeton announced the tokenization of five ETFs in partnership with Ondo.
