These tokens maintain a 1:1 backing via physical equities featuring dividend payouts and voting privileges, complete transactions using USDC, and are slated to transition from extended American market hours into round-the-clock trading.
Securitize (SECZ) has rolled out digital American equities onto its network, rolling out initial representations linked to corporations such as Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Alphabet, Tesla, Meta, and Amazon. The rollout is additionally projected to feature SpaceX and Palantir, paired with prominent crypto sector entities Circle and Strategy.
This introduction unfolds as onchain tokenized equities have crossed $3 billion in blockchain capitalization, with Securitize driving a significant share of the latest financial expansion.
Such assets feature a 1:1 backing from actual shares maintained via the regulated brokerage framework of Securitize Markets known as Convertible Entitlement Token, or CET, granting investors standard investor privileges, dividend disbursements, and corporate action benefits.
“CETs are also built to act as a connection between modern financial exchanges and Securitize’s extended goals for creator-backed digital assets: if a corporation eventually implements a creator-backed tokenized equity framework through Securitize, CET holdings can migrate directly into that framework,” the company noted.
This release debuts on the Solana network utilizing USDC for clearing and initially caters to extended United States trading windows, with Securitize intending to scale toward continuous 24/7 market activity.
“Tokenized equities ought to offer market participants much more than a price feed that simply mirrors a security,” expressed Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo within an official release. “Our objective is to deliver the authentic equity ownership journey onchain — complete with underlying shares, investor privileges, compliant trading systems, and a pathway toward an issuer-driven framework as corporations adopt asset tokenization themselves.”
Earlier in the year, Securitize partnered with Jump and Jupiter to supply liquidity and connectivity for this equity tokenization project.
Simultaneously, Securitize achieved the milestone of becoming the pioneer organization to issue equity simultaneously onchain and on the New York Stock Exchange, following the rollout of its proprietary SECZ equities across Solana and Avalanche. Securitize President Brett Redfearn shared with The Block during that period that Securitize was actively engaged in discussions with prominent investment firms concerning the integration of additional initial public offerings onchain.
