SECZ becomes the world’s largest tokenized stock at launch, with issuer-sponsored tokenized shares available to eligible U.S. investors on Avalanche and Solana.
MIAMI — July 2, 2026 — Securitize Corp. (“Securitize”), the leader in tokenized assets, today announced that it is bringing its own common stock onchain at the start of its life as a public company. Securitize’s common stock begins trading today on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SECZ, and eligible U.S. investors will be able to access tokenized SECZ separately through Securitize’s regulated platform.
The launch makes Securitize the first newly public company to bring its own stock onchain at the start of its life as a public company. Based on shareholder participation, tokenized SECZ is already the largest tokenized stock globally.
Tokenizing SECZ has always been part of Securitize’s plan. The company was built on the belief that stocks, funds, bonds, and other securities will increasingly move onchain through regulated, issuer-sponsored infrastructure. By tokenizing its own public stock on Day 1, Securitize is demonstrating its confidence in the technology, market structure, and regulatory pathway it has spent years building.
“We have long said that public equities are moving onchain, and there is no stronger validation of that belief than tokenizing our own public stock on Day 1,” said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. “SECZ is not a synthetic token or offshore wrapper. It is issuer-sponsored tokenization of the same common stock trading on the NYSE, made available through regulated infrastructure. This is how tokenization should scale: with real ownership, regulatory clarity and the issuer at the center.”
Tokenized SECZ will be available to eligible investors in the United States through Securitize’s regulated platform, demonstrating that tokenized securities can be issued and accessed in the U.S. under existing securities laws and market structure. Access will be subject to onboarding, KYC/AML checks, jurisdictional eligibility and applicable securities-law requirements.
SECZ will initially launch in tokenized form on @avax and @solana, creating a multichain foundation for tokenized public equity from Securitize’s first day as a listed company.
“Bringing SECZ onchain is not just a milestone for Securitize,” Domingo added. “It is a blueprint for public companies that want to use tokenization to create more efficient, transparent and useful ownership experiences for their shareholders.”
Tokenized SECZ is intended to represent the same common stock trading on the NYSE, not a separate share class. Tokenization changes the form of ownership; it does not change the underlying nature of the share or override applicable legal, contractual or transfer restrictions.
Securitize expects the tokenized SECZ launch to establish a meaningful onchain shareholder base from Day 1, with additional functionality, utility and market infrastructure expected to develop over time.
