Nike Joins Solana Ecosystem Through Sunrise Initiative
Nike has become the latest major global company to join the Solana ecosystem through the Sunrise initiative, expanding its tokenized-equity sector.
The NKE stock is now available on Solana via Backpack Securities' issuance, providing users with access to Nike exposure through a continuous trading platform.
This move adds another significant brand to Solana's rapidly growing market for tokenized equities, which has already seen substantial activity across stocks and real-world assets. The NKE token was created by Backpack Securities on September 8, 2026, and has already shown activity across Solana-based venues.
Solana is positioning itself as a venue for financial products that require fast settlement and continuous market access, with the launch of Nike's listing further demonstrating this shift. By bringing traditional securities onto blockchain infrastructure, Solana aims to connect blockchain-based trading with traditional securities infrastructure.
