Ondo Finance added 173 tokenized stocks and ETFs to Ondo Global Markets on Tuesday, expanding its catalog to include Ethereum, Solana, and $BNB chain.
Ondo Finance’s official X account announced this expansion on June 17th. This expansion spans some of the most capital-intensive areas of public markets, including AI, robotics, quantum computing, defense technology, critical materials, and data center energy. It also includes BlackRock’s active ETFs and covered call income strategies, products that were largely inaccessible to crypto-native investors prior to tokenization. Analytics platform Birdeye has added support for all 173 new assets, bringing the total number of Ondo Finance tracked to over 430 as well.
The platform behind the catalog
Ondo Global Markets is a tokenized securities platform that provides non-US investors with on-chain access to US-listed stocks and ETFs. Each token is backed 1:1 by the underlying securities and is purchased and held by a U.S. registered broker-dealer. The token tracks the total return of the underlying position, including dividends, and can be minted or redeemed 24 hours a day during weekdays. The platform surpassed $1 billion in total value locked on May 11, making it the first tokenized equity platform to reach that threshold less than eight months after launch. Cumulative trading volume exceeded $18 billion.
According to RWA.xyz, Ondo Finance holds over 70% market share among tokenized stock issuers. Its reach is expanded through integration with Binance, MetaMask, Blockchain.com, and Ledger hardware wallets. In April, Ondo partnered with Broadridge Financial Solutions to allow holders of tokenized shares to submit proxies for the underlying shares. This is a rare governance feature in the tokenized asset space. Ondo is also in the process of acquiring Oasis Pro, a US SEC-registered broker-dealer and alternative trading system, to expand its regulated infrastructure into US domestic access.
Multi-chain distribution
173 new assets went live on all three supported chains simultaneously. This approach avoids a recurring problem in tokenized securities deployments, where liquidity is concentrated in a single network and users on other chains cannot access the same catalog.
$BNB Chain joined Ondo Global Markets in October 2025. Solana launched in early 2026 with over 200 tokenized US stocks and has since become the largest network in terms of number of assets backed by Ondo. Ethereum remains the foundation of the platform’s institutional integration.
The sector spreads for this batch reflect where institutional and retail capital is concentrated in the public markets. AI infrastructure, defense contractors, robotics, and quantum computing have each seen continued inflows over the past year. Critical Materials and Data Center Energy extends that theme to the physical infrastructure that supports technology expansion.
RWA arc context
Tokenized stocks are emerging as the fastest growing asset class on Ethereum in 2026, with Ondo and xStocks leading the sector, according to Token Terminal data. This category ranks alongside tokenized U.S. Treasuries, with Franklin Templeton alone managing more than $2.5 billion in assets.
This expansion follows Ondo’s tokenization of five Franklin Templeton ETFs in March, bringing growth, large-cap stocks, fixed income, equity income, and gold funds on-chain. Felix, a protocol built on Hyperliquid, began accessing over 250 Ondo-backed tokenized stocks in March, expanding its catalog into perpetual and derivatives infrastructure.
According to TheStreet, Ondo executives said in May that the company expects the tokenized stock market to reach $2.5 billion to $3 billion by the end of the year. Adding 173 assets to three chains simultaneously in one batch is the most direct expression of that trajectory so far. Ondo has not disclosed how much of the new batch has been minted since the June 17 announcement.
