Securitize Tokenizes Own Public Stock Alongside NYSE Listing

Securitize officially began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SECZ on July 2, 2026, following a business combination with a Cantor Fitzgerald-sponsored SPAC. Simultaneously, the firm tokenized its own common stock on the Solana and Avalanche blockchains, marking the first instance of a newly public company bringing its equity on-chain at inception. This move serves as a strategic blueprint for other public issuers to enhance transparency and ownership efficiency through regulated infrastructure. With expected shareholder participation reaching $266 million, the SECZ token is positioned to become the world's largest tokenized stock. By utilizing its own vertically integrated platform, Securitize maintains the official shareholder record while bypassing synthetic wrappers, ensuring the token represents direct equity ownership. This development signals a shift toward mainstream institutional adoption of blockchain-native securities, supported by Securitize's role as a design partner for the upcoming NYSE-affiliated Digital Trading Platform. The event underscores the maturation of the RWA sector, moving from theoretical concepts to integrated, regulated capital market infrastructure.
