Tokenization firm Securitize has taken a major step by partnering with leading crypto market maker Jump Trading and decentralized exchange aggregator Jupiter to introduce fully on-chain, regulated tokenized equities on the Solana blockchain. The move, announced on May 5, 2026, marks the first time such assets can be issued, traded, and settled entirely on-chain, addressing a critical need for scalable secondary markets in the tokenized securities space.
Under the arrangement, Jump Trading will supply institutional liquidity through its proprietary automated market maker (PropAMM), while Jupiter—Solana’s largest DeFi aggregator—will facilitate retail and institutional access via its swap interface. Securitize itself will manage the full regulatory lifecycle as a registered broker-dealer, transfer agent, and operator of an Alternative Trading System (ATS). CEO Carlos Domingo stated, “Tokenization has reached a point where the question is no longer whether assets can be issued on-chain, but whether they can trade at scale in a way that meets the standards of public markets. This collaboration demonstrates that it’s possible to deliver liquidity, access, and compliance together—within the existing regulatory framework.”
The launch arrives amid accelerating industry interest in tokenization. Major exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and Binance, along with traditional brokers such as Robinhood, are exploring on-chain equities. Securitize has been bolstering its infrastructure: on Monday it disclosed FINRA approval to custody and underwrite tokenized IPOs, and it previously partnered with Computershare so public companies could issue tokenized shares. The firm is also working with the New York Stock Exchange on a 24/7 tokenized securities platform.
Securitize itself is in the process of going public via a SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II, expected to close in the first half of 2026, listing on Nasdaq under the ticker CEPT. This convergence of traditional finance and decentralized technology positions Solana as a hub for compliant, on-chain equity trading and could accelerate institutional adoption of tokenized assets.
