Ondo Global Markets has officially launched on BNB Chain, providing round-the-clock access to over 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs. This expansion marks a significant stride not only for Ondo but also for the growth and adoption of tokenized assets in blockchain technology.
Ondo Global Markets’ Expansion to BNB Chain
On October 29, Ondo Finance announced its expansion into BNB Chain, enabling its marketplace to offer high-quality institutional-grade tokenized stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to a global audience.
According to the company, this integration represents a key milestone for both Ondo Finance and BNB Chain. For BNB, which is becoming increasingly prominent in decentralized finance (DeFi) and asset tokenization, this represents growth in a rapidly evolving sector.
This launch coincides with a broader trend where major asset managers are leveraging blockchain technology to enhance the visibility of their products, which include tokenized stocks, private credit, and U.S. Treasury securities.
Implications of Ondo Global Markets on BNB Chain Users
With this new offering, users within the BNB ecosystem will have 24/7 access to over 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs. The CEO of Ondo Finance, Nathan Allman, emphasized the importance of BNB Chain’s substantial user base in supporting this venture. He stated, “Expanding to BNB Chain allows us to bring tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs to millions of users in Asia, Latin America, and other regions in a fast, cost-effective, and highly interoperable environment.”
As Ondo continues to grow, it has already captured $350 million in total value locked (TVL) since its launch on Ethereum in September 2025. The platform also boasts over $669 million in on-chain volume, enabling non-U.S. investors to gain transparent exposure to top-tier assets like Apple, Tesla, Nvidia ETFs, and the S&P 500, backed by securities held by registered U.S. brokers.
The integration provides features such as blockchain-based settlements, fractional ownership for enhanced affordability, and significant liquidity sourced directly from traditional exchanges. Users can execute trades of up to $1 million per transaction with real-time pricing via Chainlink oracles.
Moreover, partnerships with BNB Chain’s ecosystem projects like PancakeSwap facilitate easy trading without the usual KYC barriers, enhancing accessibility for many users.
“Real-world assets are one of the fastest-growing segments of BNB Chain,” stated Sarah Song, Head of Business Development at BNB Chain. “The arrival of Ondo Finance into our ecosystem validates this momentum.”
