Introducing: Stocks on Securitize Real Stocks. Real Ownership. Trading onchain. For the first time ever.

2/ Stocks on Securitize can be bought and sold onchain, in real time, just like you buy and sell crypto. Until now, natively tokenized stocks could exist onchain, but had to trade offchain. @TomMurphyTweets walks you through our innovative experience:

3/ This isn’t a synthetic wrapper or an IOU. These are real, regulated shares issued onchain, recorded directly on the issuer’s cap table, and tradable in a familiar crypto UX.

4/ For investors, it feels like DeFi trading. Under the hood, it meets the high standards of investor protection, market integrity, and regulatory compliance.

5/ Most “tokenized stock” products today only offer price exposure, not ownership. They rely on SPVs, offshore structures, or derivatives. TLDR; you don’t actually hold shares or get shareholder rights.

6/ The real promise isn’t just faster settlement, it’s programmability. Tokenized stocks can interact with smart contracts, lending protocols, and DeFi infrastructure without compromising compliance. This is how TradFi plugs into DeFi responsibly.
