"Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo stated that the Currenc deal reflects what issuer-led tokenization looks like when the token represents the actual security and the company is directly involved. This is about more than putting shares on a blockchain."
"Domingo emphasized the goal of creating a market structure where public equities can move globally, trade more efficiently, and become more interoperable with the next generation of financial infrastructure."
Securitize has successfully tokenized the ordinary shares of Nasdaq-listed Currenc Group Inc. on both Ethereum and Solana. This marks the first natively tokenized public stock available on these platforms. The tokenization allows for fractional ownership and 24/7 trading, integrating with decentralized finance infrastructure. The broader tokenized stock market has reached approximately $1 billion in value, although most trading volume is still from synthetic exposure rather than direct equity ownership. The deal is structured as issuer-led, ensuring the tokens represent actual shares held by the company.
