More than 200 US stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are now available on Solana through Ondo Finance, are now available on Solana through Ondo Finance, giving its 3.2 million daily active blockchain users access to traditional equities with institutional-grade liquidity for the first time.

The launch makes Ondo Global Markets the largest issuer of real-world assets on Solana by asset count.

The offering includes blue-chip stocks such as Nvidia, Amazon, Walmart, and Meta, as well as technology, growth, and sector ETFs. Investors can also access leveraged ETFs, commodities-linked products like gold and silver, and thematic assets tied to sectors including artificial intelligence (AI) and electric vehicles.

Wall Street Liquidity Meets Onchain Markets

Unlike many tokenized platforms that rely on on-chain liquidity pools, Ondo sources liquidity directly from major exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. 

This setup allows million-dollar trades with minimal slippage, addressing a common challenge for large on-chain transactions.

Ian De Bode, President of Ondo Finance, enables users to trade tokenized stocks “in size at brokerage prices,” combining the accessibility of blockchain with the reliability of traditional markets.

The platform launched with hundreds of assets live on day one, with plans to expand to thousands more over time.

Scaling Internet Capital Markets on Solana

The Solana Foundation described the launch as a key step toward building global, high-performance internet capital markets. 

With Solana’s throughput and low-latency settlement, RWAs are increasingly seen as a core use case for on-chain finance.

Since its initial launch on Ethereum in September 2025 and subsequent expansion to BNB Chain, Ondo Global Markets has become the world’s largest tokenized securities platform. 

It currently reports more than $460 million in total value locked and over $6.8 billion in cumulative trading volume, underscoring growing institutional and market demand for tokenized equities.

Why This Matters

The launch enables traditional stocks to move on-chain, making trading more accessible and available around the clock.
