Tokenization specialist Dinari and broker-dealer tZERO are working together to offer broker-dealers a turnkey platform for tokenized U.S. equities, as competition intensifies over how public stocks should move onto blockchain networks.
Key facts
- Stablecoin market cap fell to $312B in June, its largest monthly drop since TerraUSD, while tokenized equity volumes surged 145% to a record $3.86B
- Founded in 2014, tZERO was among the first companies to build a regulated infrastructure for blockchain-based securities markets
- It obtained a broker-dealer registration in June 2025 for its subsidiary, making it the first U.S. platform cleared to legally offer blockchain-based shares to domestic investors
- Tokenized equities won't reach mainstream adoption until broker-dealers can offer them as naturally as they offer traditional securities," Dinari CEO Gabriel Otte said in a statement
Summary
Tokenization specialists Dinari and tZERO are joining forces to create a turnkey platform for tokenized U.S. equities for broker-dealers. The firms will package issuance, trading, custody, settlement and shareholder servicing into one regulated framework. The partnership comes amid a growing debate over how tokenized equities should be structured and distributed. The companies said Wednesday they will combine Dinari's tokenized stock platform with tZERO's brokerage, custody, clearing and settlement infrastructure, allowing financial firms to launch blockchain-based equity offerings without assembling the underlying market infrastructure themselves.
