Securitize tokenizes $295 million of its own stock on Solana and Avalanche amid NYSE debut
Securitize has become the first company to tokenize its own common stock on the Solana and Avalanche blockchains upon its NYSE debut. The move aims to demonstrate the efficiency of blockchain-based financial assets, with $295 million in shares already tokenized.
Why it matters
This marks a major milestone in the institutional adoption of blockchain technology for traditional financial securities and equity markets.
The company said its common stock, trading under the ticker SECZ, is now available in token form on Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX) via its regulated platform. The blockchain-based shares represent the same common stock trading on the NYSE rather than a separate class of securities, the firm said.
