NEAR Adds Ondo Stocks Through NEAR Intents

NEAR has partnered with Ondo Finance to bring tokenized U.S. stocks, ETFs and commodity-linked products to near.com and NEAR Intents. Eligible users in supported jurisdictions can access tokenized versions of U.S. securities directly through their near.com accounts.

The initial selection includes tokenized exposure to Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft and Amazon. Users can also access QQQ and precious metals ETFs such as SLV and IAU. Meanwhile, supported assets including USDC and Bitcoin can fund purchases without requiring a separate brokerage account.

NEAR Intents handles cross-chain routing for the service. The infrastructure connects more than 30 blockchain networks, allowing participating wallets and applications to route transactions to Ondo Stocks.

“Bringing financial markets onchain should give people more control over their money and more choice in how they transact,” said Alex Shevchenko, CEO of Defuse Labs, the developer of NEAR Intents.

Ondo Expands Tokenized Securities Distribution

Ondo’s tokenized securities platform has more than $1 billion in total value locked and over $26 billion in cumulative trading volume. Its tokenized stocks are already available on Ethereum, Solana and BNB Chain.

With the NEAR integration, users can move from supported crypto assets into tokenized securities through one account. They can then hold those assets or exchange them back into USDC or another supported asset.

“Our goal is simple: investors should be able to reach these assets from the networks and accounts where they already hold their capital,” said Armand Khatri, Head of Ecosystem at Ondo Finance.

In addition, Ondo’s Oasis Pro Markets recently joined DTCC’s Fund/SERV network. The membership connects the U.S.-registered broker-dealer with fund companies, wealth platforms and other financial service providers.

NEAR Extends Cross-Chain Asset Access

NEAR Intents lets users specify the result they want while independent solvers handle routing between supported blockchains. The system connects networks including Bitcoin, Ethereum, NEAR, Tron and BNB Chain.

Moreover, Ondo Stocks will extend beyond near.com through participating wallets, DeFi protocols and applications connected to NEAR Intents. Access remains subject to jurisdiction and user eligibility requirements.

The integration places tokenized U.S. securities alongside crypto assets within near.com, while NEAR Intents provides the cross-chain distribution layer for connected applications.

If you want tokenized equities, strict rules require secure institutional crypto custody solutions to keep assets separate and protected.
