Ondo Global Markets’ expansion to BNB Chain opens on-chain access to tokenized stocks and ETFs for a wider investor base, providing a new on-ramp for crypto.
How will Ondo Global Markets expand RWA access and tokenized stocks on BNB Chain trading?
Launched in September, Ondo Global Markets moved trading of real-world assets onto BNB Chain. Nathan Allman and Sarah Sun said the expansion targets faster, lower-cost access to American securities for users in Asia and Latin America.
Early metrics show that TVL exceeded $350 million and trading volume reached $670 million, while the network supports 3.4 million active wallets on BNB Chain. Note: these figures and quotes are reported by company spokespeople and require independent verification.
What American stocks tokenized and tokenized ETFs trading will be available via Ondo Finance launch?
The offering includes over 100 tokenized American stocks and ETFs, pairing US equity exposure with on-chain settlement and custody options. The rollout follows the Ondo Finance market entry and leverages prior infrastructure work with payment rails and custody partners.
Which assets and partners?
Integrations span automated market makers and payment-network collaborations to support liquidity and wider distribution.
- Tokenized assets worth $1.8 billion across Ondo products.
- 28,370 holders currently hold Ondo-issued tokenized instruments.
- Integration mentions include PancakeSwap for on-chain liquidity and a prior Mastercard Multi-Token Network partnership in February.
Will the PancakeSwap Ondo partnership boost liquidity and holders?
The announced PancakeSwap collaboration aims to route AMM liquidity toward Ondo’s tokenized listings, which could reduce slippage and tighten spreads for retail and institutional traders. The RWA sector capitalization is reported at $35.5 billion, while comparable tokenized exposures on Ethereum are estimated at $11.9 billion — see RWA.xyz data for sector metrics.
Experts note that AMM integration can deepen visible on-chain liquidity but does not remove custody, compliance, or settlement risks. Market makers report operational benefits from faster settlement and lower execution costs in test pools.
In brief: the move brings decentralised AMM liquidity to tokenized ETFs and equities, expanding access for millions of BNB Chain users while investor due diligence on custody and regulatory status remains essential.
