OG.com cleared by SEC to offer single

The North American Derivatives Exchange, operating as OG.com and affiliated with Crypto.com, has received authorization from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to offer single-stock futures in the United States. By filing Form 1-N, the platform secured status as a national securities exchange, marking a significant regulatory milestone for bridging traditional capital markets with digital asset innovation. CEO Kris Marszalek confirmed that the exchange is coordinating with both the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to facilitate these offerings. This development allows the platform to list single-stock perpetual futures, providing U.S. users with new avenues for equity-based derivatives trading. The move reflects a broader industry trend of crypto-native firms integrating regulated financial products into their ecosystems. Similar initiatives have been observed elsewhere, such as Kraken's partnership with the London Stock Exchange for tokenized UK stocks and Coinbase's expansion into stock perpetual futures. This regulatory clearance underscores the increasing convergence between institutional-grade derivatives and digital asset infrastructure.

DeFi & L1L2 — 🚀 Crypto.com launched Tokenized Stocks; Toyota Finance launched a ¥1 billion tokenized bond

Crypto.com has officially launched a new offering for tokenized stocks, marking a significant expansion of its platform's asset capabilities. Simultaneously, Toyota Finance has entered the RWA space by issuing a ¥1 billion tokenized bond, highlighting the growing institutional interest in blockchain-based debt instruments. These developments occur against a backdrop of broader market growth, with total cryptocurrency ownership reaching 774 million users, a 4.5% increase in the first half of 2026. Market data indicates a positive trend, with market capitalization rising by 6.95% and trading volume increasing by 0.41% over the reporting period. The integration of traditional financial assets like stocks and bonds onto blockchain rails signals a maturing ecosystem where institutional players are increasingly leveraging distributed ledger technology for capital formation. While Harmony faces operational challenges following a network exploit, the overall RWA sector continues to gain momentum through these diverse product launches. These milestones underscore the ongoing convergence between traditional finance and decentralized infrastructure, providing investors with new avenues for asset exposure.

Crypto.com Launches the Future of Trading With Tokenized Stocks

Crypto.com has officially launched Tokenized Stocks, enabling users to gain exposure to 1,500 U.S. equities and ETFs directly through its mobile application. This new product allows for fractional investments starting at just US$1, providing 24/7 trading capabilities that bypass traditional market hours. The tokens function as derivative financial instruments that track the price performance of underlying assets like NVDA, TSLA, and AAPL, as well as commodity ETFs such as GLD and SLV. While these tokens do not grant legal ownership or shareholder rights, they offer dividend equivalent adjustments to eligible holders. The underlying assets are held in custody by Alpaca, a U.S. regulated broker-dealer that currently supports over 90% of the tokenized U.S. stock market. This launch represents a significant step in bridging traditional equity markets with blockchain-based infrastructure to enhance liquidity and accessibility. By offering instant access and fast settlement, Crypto.com aims to modernize the investment experience for users across the EEA and other approved global jurisdictions.
