Ondo Global Markets Becomes Ondo Stocks as Tokenized Equities Cross $1 Billion

Ondo Finance has rebranded its tokenized equities platform from Ondo Global Markets to Ondo Stocks, signaling a strategic focus on its dominant position in the tokenized U.S. equity sector. Since its launch in September 2025, the platform has achieved significant milestones, including surpassing $1 billion in total value locked and expanding its catalog to over 438 assets. By capturing between 59% and 70% of the tokenized equity issuer market, Ondo has outperformed competitors like Backed Finance, Swarm, and Dinari. The platform recently introduced 24/7 minting and redemption for major assets like NVDAon and TSLAon, effectively removing the constraints of traditional market hours. Furthermore, the integration of Chainlink price feeds has enabled these tokenized shares to function as productive collateral within DeFi lending protocols. The launch of Ondo Perps, offering up to 20x leverage, further integrates these assets into the broader decentralized finance ecosystem. This evolution from simple exposure to active financial utility marks a critical shift in how retail and institutional investors interact with traditional equities on the blockchain.
