Key takeaways

  • The additions include Disney, ExxonMobil, Salesforce, Uber and GameStop.
  • Investors can become registered shareholders if the issuer adopts the relevant model and conversion is available.
  • The platform has defined trading hours and a 0.10% fee; continuous 24/7 trading remains a future plan.

Securitize added 13 companies to its U.S. stock offering on Solana, bringing the total to 25. The company says each token is backed one-for-one by shares held in custody, with dividends passed to holders.

Securitize said on November 2 that it had added tokens representing 13 U.S. stocks, including Disney, Exxon Mobil, Salesforce and Uber, to its offering on Solana. The additions take Securitize Stocks from the 12 equities offered at its October 8 launch to 25. Jump Trading supports the platform’s liquidity infrastructure, and transactions settle in USDC.

The 13 additions and token holders’ rights

The company’s November 2 announcement adds energy, healthcare, defense, entertainment and transport businesses alongside technology companies. The new names and their underlying stock tickers are:

Securitize says each token is backed one-for-one by a share held in custody and that the underlying shares are not lent out. In the United States, investors receive a security entitlement under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code: rights to a security held through an intermediary. The company says holders retain economic benefits such as dividends and voting rights where the underlying share class carries them. Under this tokenization model, the shares remain in custody while investors hold tokens representing rights to those shares.

European Union customers hold their interests through Securitize Europe Brokerage and Markets S.V., S.A. Their client agreement and applicable EU and Spanish law govern those interests. The UCC framework described for U.S. customers does not replace those European terms.

Securitize says the underlying companies have not issued, sponsored or endorsed the tokens. The offering does not create new shares. One-for-one backing and the absence of share lending are Securitize’s statements; KriptoMeta has not independently counted assets in custody.

Trading hours, fees and price limits

Under the platform’s trading requirements, users must open an account and complete identity checks. They then have an external self-custody wallet approved by the platform. Security tokens can move only between whitelisted wallets. Eligible investors in the United States, EU and other permitted jurisdictions can access the offering, subject to securities laws, sanctions and other restrictions. Access requirements for investors in Türkiye were not separately disclosed.

Securitize lists trading hours of 4:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time on the help page reviewed on November 2. The answer does not specify the applicable days of the week, and the platform does not currently offer 24/7 trading. USDC is a stablecoin designed to track the U.S. dollar, and prices are displayed in USDC per share. If USDC’s dollar value moves, the USDC amount corresponding to an unchanged dollar stock price can also change.

The platform uses market orders and bases displayed prices on the National Best Bid and Offer, or NBBO, across U.S. markets. Prices may move between confirmation and execution. Securitize says it rejects an order if the price moves more than 0.10% against the investor: above the permitted level for a purchase or below it for a sale.

For a hypothetical purchase with a reference price of 100 USDC, the 0.10% limit gives a maximum of 100.10 USDC. A sale would have a floor of 99.90 USDC. The platform checks the price before executing the trade. Investors can still lose money if the stock falls afterward; the check is not a stop-loss order.

Securitize separately charges a trading fee of 0.10% of the transaction amount, paid in USDC. The company says the fee covers the trade’s execution gas costs. It is calculated separately from the 0.10% price-movement limit. The reference price refreshes every 30 seconds on the order page and every eight seconds on the confirmation page. A price change can alter the number of shares received while leaving the total USDC spent unchanged.

Securitize warns on its product page that extended-hours trading can bring sharper price moves, lower liquidity and wider bid–ask spreads. With fewer buyers or sellers, investors may be unable to trade their full intended quantity at the displayed price.

What must happen before direct registration or 24/7 trading?

Securitize uses what it calls a convertible entitlement token, or CET. Holding a token does not make its owner a registered shareholder of the underlying issuer. If the underlying company adopts issuer-sponsored tokenization, investors could become registered shareholders where conversion is available. Conversion would take place through Securitize’s transfer-agent partners, which maintain shareholder records. It has not announced the option as available for all 25 stocks.

U.S. secondary trading is offered through Securitize Markets LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and FINRA/SIPC member. The company says its current trading operates under existing U.S. securities laws without needing to rely on the SEC’s Innovation Exemption. Broker-dealer registration is not regulatory endorsement of an investment’s returns or safety.

Securitize expects the stocks to trade on the NYSE’s planned 24/7 digital venue. It has also designed the product to work with the planned OKXICE Tokenized Securities Venue, or TSV. Neither venue had launched as of the November 2 release. Regulators must grant approval, and the venues must review the stocks and complete their operational preparations. The company says trading may never begin and reserves the right to withdraw listings from venues when needed.

In the segment beginning at 0:55 of his October 13 NYSE interview, Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo explains the original 12-stock offering and its aim of preserving dividend and voting rights. He describes adding more stocks and new uses as future plans at that time. The interview provides background on the launch; the 13 additional stocks were announced on November 2.
