Tesla, Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft and Amazon are among the initial stocks available through the integration. Users can also access products linked to the Invesco QQQ Trust and precious-metals ETFs including SLV and IAU.
NEAR Adds Tokenized Stocks Through Ondo
The integration allows eligible users to move from supported crypto assets into tokenized securities without first transferring money to a traditional brokerage account. Bitcoin and USDC are among the funding options supported by the service.
After buying a tokenized asset, users can hold it inside their account or exchange it back into USDC or another supported crypto asset. Availability depends on each user’s location and compliance with Ondo’s eligibility rules.
NEAR Intents handles the cross-chain routing behind the service. Rather than manually choosing bridges and transaction routes, users specify the result they want and independent solvers compete to find and execute the required path.
The system currently connects more than 30 blockchain networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, NEAR, Tron and BNB Chain. That allows assets held on one supported network to be routed toward tokenized securities without users manually completing every intermediate transaction.
Ondo Expands Tokenized Stock Distribution
Ondo has already deployed tokenized securities across Ethereum, Solana and BNB Chain. The company says its tokenized securities platform has more than $1 billion in total value locked and has processed more than $26 billion in cumulative trading volume.
The NEAR partnership adds another distribution channel rather than replacing those existing networks. Ondo Stocks will also be available through wallets, DeFi protocols and other applications connected to NEAR Intents.
Earlier integrations have also brought Ondo-linked products to HyperEVM and enabled tokenized stocks to move between Ethereum and BNB Chain. The NEAR approach differs by relying on its intent-based routing system rather than requiring users to manually bridge individual tokens.
Ondo has also been building connections with traditional financial infrastructure. Its U.S.-registered broker-dealer subsidiary Oasis Pro Markets recently joined DTCC’s Fund/SERV network, which connects financial firms with fund companies for order processing and settlement.
US Users Remain Restricted
Despite the U.S.-listed companies represented by the tokens, Ondo Stocks are currently unavailable to U.S. persons. Ondo says the products have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and cannot be sold in the U.S. unless they are registered or qualify for an exemption.
Restrictions also apply in some other markets. Users in countries including the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Singapore may need to qualify as professional investors before gaining access.
The offshore Ondo Stocks offering is separate from the SEC’s newer pathway for tokenized U.S. securities. Products using that exemption must provide the same economic and ownership rights as the traditional shares they represent.
For NEAR, the partnership places tokenized equities alongside crypto assets within the same cross-chain environment. For Ondo, it expands distribution to another ecosystem as tokenized stocks become an increasingly important part of onchain financial markets.
