Securitize tokenizes $295 million of its own stock on solana and avalanche amid nyse debut

Overview

  • Securitize completed its SPAC business combination and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SECZ after a transaction that raised roughly $400 million.
  • On July 2, 2026 the company issued issuer‑sponsored tokenized versions of its common stock on the Solana and Avalanche blockchains and made those tokens available to eligible U.S. investors through its regulated platform.
  • Press reports differ on how much stock was tokenized at launch, with some outlets reporting about $266 million and others reporting about $295 million based on onchain data.
  • Securitize and its CEO say the tokens represent the same underlying NYSE-listed shares rather than synthetic wrappers, and access is restricted by onboarding, identity checks and jurisdictional eligibility under U.S. securities rules.
  • Executives framed the Day 1 move as a market test for regulated tokenization that could let retail holders use DeFi to capture yield streams such as stock‑lending revenue, and the firm leans on existing partnerships and $4 billion of prior tokenized AUM as infrastructure backing.
