“Can Securitize become the end-to-end regulated infrastructure layer — issuance, transfer agency, trading, and advisory — that every major asset manager needs to tokenize real-world assets on public blockchains?”
Founded in 2017 as a blockchain-based digital securities compliance and issuance platform, Securitize initially targeted private companies seeking to tokenize equity via security token offerings (STOs). As the STO market matured slowly, Securitize broadened its model to become a full-stack regulated infrastructure provider for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), adding its own broker-dealer, ATS, and transfer agent registrations. The pivotal 2024 partnership with BlackRock on the BUIDL fund — the largest asset manager's first tokenized fund on a public blockchain — validated Securitize's positioning as the institutional-grade RWA tokenization platform. In 2026, Securitize Capital's SEC investment adviser registration added a fourth regulated arm, positioning the company as a vertically integrated compliance, distribution, and advisory platform for tokenized assets.
Securitize's crypto products run on Zero Hash and Fireblocks.
