OpenWorld lists its Nasdaq stock as tokenized asset on Solana

OpenWorld, Inc. has officially launched its Nasdaq-listed common stock as a tokenized asset on the Solana blockchain. This initiative, facilitated by Backpack Securities and the Sunrise platform developed by Wormhole Labs, enables 24/7 trading and continuous settlement for OPNW tokens. The company clarified that this launch does not involve the issuance of new shares, nor does it serve as a capital-raising event. Investors can redeem these tokens for security entitlements to the underlying shares, which are then transferable to traditional brokerage accounts. While the tokens operate on-chain, the company remains fully subject to standard SEC reporting requirements and maintains its primary listing on the Nasdaq. This development highlights the growing trend of bridging traditional equity markets with high-speed blockchain infrastructure to enhance liquidity and accessibility. Furthermore, OpenWorld maintains its commitment to broader on-chain integration, with a planned dual listing on Figure's On-chain Public Equity Network scheduled for late 2026.
