Ondo Finance stated that the initiative is intended to "bring capital markets on-chain" and establish standards for interoperable tokenized equities.
Focusing on real-world asset tokenization, Ondo recently launched a layer-1 blockchain tailored for institutional on-chain assets. The platform offers tokenized treasury products backed by U.S. government debt.
According to DeFiLlama, Ondo's total value locked (TVL) has more than doubled over the past year, reaching nearly $1.4 billion as of June.
The tokenized RWA market continues to expand
With a more favorable regulatory environment in the U.S. and increasing global demand for U.S. financial products, the tokenized RWA market has grown 260% this year.
The overall RWA market—excluding stablecoins—was valued at $23 billion as of June, according to Binance Research. The year 2025 is expected to be record-setting, as more companies aim to bring traditional financial assets on-chain.
