Securitize Lists on NYSE and Tokenizes SECZ on Avalanche and Solana
Securitize, one of the most prominent players in the real-world asset sector, began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on July 2 after completing a business combination with SPAC Cantor Equity Partners II. Trading under the ticker SECZ, the stock opened at $12.45, reached an intraday high of $13.70, and closed at $12.3, implying a market capitalization of roughly $2 billion. At the same time, Securitize launched tokenized versions of its common shares on Avalanche and Solana, making SECZ the first company to be listed on both the NYSE and public blockchains from day one. According to RWA.xyz, SECZ immediately became the world’s largest tokenized stock by on-chain value, exceeding $295 million on issuance day. What distinguishes Securitize from many competing tokenized stock platforms is its insistence on offering direct ownership of real shares rather than synthetic exposure. Token holders are intended to receive the same legal and economic rights as traditional shareholders, including dividends and voting rights. However, that authenticity comes with strict access controls: investors must pass KYC and AML screening, satisfy jurisdictional requirements, comply with applicable securities laws, and be whitelisted, making the product largely inaccessible to ordinary global retail users. The listing also refocuses attention on Securitize’s valuation. The company dominates the on-chain RWA market with more than $4.4 billion in tokenized assets, and its BlackRock-related BUIDL fund alone exceeds $2.2 billion. Still, based on management revenue guidance and comparisons with Figure, the stock does not appear obviously undervalued. The market premium seems to reflect Securitize’s regulatory stack, institutional distribution, and potential to expand tokenized equities beyond SECZ.
