Near.com Brings Tokenized Stocks to Crypto Platform
Near.com has partnered with Ondo Finance to bring tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs onto its platform, allowing users to buy and hold traditional market exposure alongside their crypto assets. The integration connects near.com users to Ondo's tokenized securities platform, which boasts over $1 billion in total value locked (TVL) and more than $26 billion in cumulative trading volume.
Through this partnership, eligible users can confidentially buy, trade, and hold these assets through a single near.com account without opening a separate brokerage account. The integration is powered by NEAR Intents, which handles cross-chain routing and execution through one account with confidential execution built into the experience.
Ondo's tokenized securities platform currently offers access to stocks such as NVIDIA, Tesla, and Apple, as well as tokenized ETFs like QQQ, using USDC, Bitcoin, or other supported assets across 30+ networks. This partnership marks a broader expansion of the financial assets available through near.com, with more real-world assets moving onchain.
