Securitize Launches Solana-based Regulated On-chain Stock Trading Service in Partnership with Jump Trading and Jupiter

On May 5, 2026, Securitize launched a fully on-chain, regulated stock trading service in partnership with Jump Trading Group and Jupiter, a Solana-based decentralized finance (DeFi) aggregator. This service combines Jump Trading's institutional-grade liquidity provision with Jupiter's user-friendly interface to initiate the full-scale on-chain transition of the stock market. Securitize aims to lead the digitalization of traditional financial assets through this initiative.

On the same day, the data blockchain project Space and Time also launched its 'Virtual Vaults' service for institutional on-chain lending, supporting the digitalization of financial infrastructure. This service aims to enhance the security of on-chain financial projects by providing contract-specific collateral solutions for lenders and borrowers. Alongside Securitize's move, this infrastructure expansion serves to lower the entry barriers for institutional investors into the on-chain space.

As of November 2025, Securitize has established itself as a leader in the Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization field, surpassing $4 billion in Assets Under Management (AUM). Following the launch of tokenized funds in collaboration with global asset managers such as BlackRock, Apollo, and KKR, it recently expanded its reach by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to support tokenized securities. This background demonstrates that Securitize has grown beyond a mere startup to become a core partner in institutional finance.

This partnership is one of the first steps needed to bring stocks on-chain. It will increase liquidity and allow tokenized assets to be traded 24/7.

Securitize ensures legal stability as an SEC-registered broker-dealer and operator of an Alternative Trading System (ATS). Furthermore, it is recognized as the only company capable of operating regulated digital securities infrastructure in both the U.S. and Europe, having obtained a license to operate a Trading and Settlement System (TSS) under the European Union's (EU) DLT Pilot Regime. This acts as a strong competitive advantage in expanding tokenized stock trading in the global market.

Technical Integration and Regulatory Approval Status

In this collaboration, Jump Trading provides institutional-grade liquidity through its proprietary 'PropAMM' deployed on the Solana network, supporting narrow spreads and real-time price discovery. Jupiter serves as the gateway for retail and institutional investors to discover and trade tokenized stocks through a familiar DeFi interface. Securitize provides the underlying regulatory infrastructure for this system, ensuring that all transactions occur within legal boundaries.

Securitize maximized the efficiency of the trading process by obtaining approval from FINRA on May 4, 2026, to enable custody and atomic settlement for tokenized securities. Atomic settlement technology allows the exchange of assets and payments to occur simultaneously, eliminating settlement risk and drastically increasing transaction speed. This is an example of solving the complex settlement processes, a chronic problem in existing financial systems, using blockchain technology.

Additionally, it agreed to collaborate with Computershare to support U.S. listed companies in issuing stocks in tokenized form, expanding its reach into the primary market. This is evaluated as opening a new path for issuers to enter the on-chain market directly without going through existing complex settlement processes. Market experts expect this trend to be a catalyst for absorbing the $69 trillion global stock market on-chain.

The introduction of on-chain stock trading can significantly improve capital efficiency by shortening the existing T+1 or T+2 settlement cycles to instantaneous settlement. However, technical risks that may arise during the combination of regulatory compliance and decentralized technology, as well as the differing approaches of regulatory authorities in each country, remain challenges to be solved. To manage these uncertainties, Securitize is also focusing on securing human resources, such as recruiting former SEC Director Brett Redfearn as President.

In the future, investors should pay attention to when the MOU with the NYSE leads to specific service launches and whether additional listed companies participate in tokenization. Furthermore, attempts to solve liquidity fragmentation and increase global accessibility through expansion to various mainnets such as TRON, in addition to Solana, are expected to continue. These movements are projected to be important variables determining the direction of the on-chain financial market in the second half of 2026.
