“We have long said that public equities are moving onchain,” so commented Carlos Domingo, Founder and CEO of Securitize, on the company’s debut on the New York Stock Exchange. Moreover, immediately after merging with Cantor Equity Partners II and launching trading under the ticker SECZ, the company tokenized its common stock on the Solana blockchain, triggering a powerful rally for the SOL coin.
As market researchers stated — “This can be tracked by blockchain data from RWA.xyz, which recorded roughly $295 million in tokenized SECZ shares right at launch.” But they also specified that this does not mean the creation of a synthetic wrapped asset, since the issued tokens represent the exact same real shares trading on the NYSE, with access currently limited only to verified U.S. investors.
