Ondo Global Markets is expanding its tokenized U.S. stock and ETF offerings to the BNB Chain, marking another major step in its mission to bring real-world assets (RWAs) to global blockchain users. The move aims to tap into BNB Chain’s vast network of over 3.4 million active users, especially in Asia and Latin America, where retail demand for blockchain-based financial products continues to surge.
Bringing Tokenized Stocks to a Wider Audience
The expansion allows BNB Chain users to access Ondo’s tokenized equities and ETFs, which mirror the economic returns of underlying U.S. securities. These assets are fully backed by regulated broker-dealers in the United States, ensuring compliance and investor protection.
Users can mint and redeem the tokens through Ondo’s platform 24/5, while secondary trading is available 24/7 on supported blockchains, giving global investors around-the-clock exposure to the U.S. stock market through DeFi infrastructure.
Market Growth Accelerates Toward $700 Million TVL
According to RWA.xyz, the overall tokenized securities market has nearly doubled since August, climbing toward $700 million in total value locked (TVL). Much of that growth stems from demand for on-chain access to traditional assets like government bonds, money-market funds, and equities, a sector in which Ondo has emerged as one of the leading players.
Since its September 2025 launch, Ondo Global Markets has already amassed around $320 million in TVL, making it one of the largest platforms in the tokenized stock market.
BNB Chain’s Role in Real-World Asset Adoption
By expanding to the BNB ecosystem, Ondo strengthens its footprint in one of the world’s most active DeFi communities. BNB Chain’s high transaction throughput, low fees, and strong regional presence provide an ideal environment for scaling tokenized real-world assets to millions of users who may have limited access to traditional brokerage platforms.
The integration also reinforces BNB Chain’s growing status as a hub for RWA tokenization, following a wave of stablecoin, treasury, and asset-backed token initiatives launched throughout 2025.
Tokenization Continues to Bridge Finance and Blockchain
The expansion highlights the accelerating convergence of traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi). By making stocks and ETFs accessible through tokenized instruments, Ondo is helping democratize exposure to U.S. markets — a move that could reshape how global investors participate in regulated financial products.
As the tokenized asset market approaches $1 billion, Ondo’s latest integration positions it at the forefront of a rapidly scaling sector, one where real-world assets meet 24/7 blockchain liquidity.
