Blockchain.com and Ondo Finance Make U.S. Stocks Available to European Investors with Tokenization

Blockchain.com and Ondo Finance Launch Tokenized U.S. Stocks for European Investors

In a significant move for the financial landscape, Blockchain.com and Ondo Finance have expanded their partnership to offer tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs to European investors. This development marks a groundbreaking step in making real-world assets (RWAs) accessible via decentralized finance (DeFi) wallets, bringing a new level of investment opportunities to millions in Europe.

The announcement, made on February 3, 2026, reveals that eligible European users can now seamlessly trade tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly from their Blockchain.com DeFi wallets. This expansion follows the successful introduction of over 200 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs to audiences in Africa and South America last year, significantly broadening their reach and enhancing financial inclusion globally.

The Impact of Tokenization

Peter Smith, CEO and co-founder of Blockchain.com, emphasized the importance of this service extension. He stated, “By offering U.S. stocks on-chain to our European users, we provide self-custody solutions that are faster, more efficient, and entirely autonomous, surpassing the capabilities of traditional banking.” This initiative represents a shift towards a more inclusive and secure financial system for millions across Europe and beyond.

Since its launch in September 2025, Ondo Global Markets has witnessed explosive growth, which is indicative of the high demand for institutional grade assets on the blockchain. The firm reported a total value locked (TVL) exceeding $556 million, alongside trading volumes surpassing $8.7 billion, confirming its dominance in the RWA sector.

According to Ian De Bode, President of Ondo Finance, the collaboration with Blockchain.com enables tokenized U.S. stocks to reach a previously untapped segment of the global user base. “We anticipate that this expansion will drive further adoption as we continue to advance tokenization in global markets.”

User Experience and Benefits

European investors from 30 EEA countries now have the ability to buy, sell, and hold more than 200 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs through the familiar Blockchain.com wallet interface. This eliminates the traditional barriers associated with brokerage accounts, making transactions more straightforward and streamlined.

Additionally, with the robust performance of precious metal markets, Ondo Global Markets is also providing on-chain access to tokenized ETFs for precious metals, such as silver and gold. This allows investors to gain exposure to commodities while maintaining the ease of digital asset management.
