A major step forward sees more than 200 U.S.-listed stocks tokenized and tradable on the Solana blockchain, enabling broker-level pricing and liquidity for on-chain trading. Tempo Global Market, a leading platform for tokenized securities, with Jupiter serving as a primary onboarding gateway, now opens access to a broad range of assets, including technology shares, blue chips, sector ETFs, and commodity-linked products. Ian De Bode, CEO of Tempo Finance, notes that Solana users can trade tokenized equities at broker-level prices for the first time, marking a milestone in expanding on-chain finance.
This expansion broadens Solana’s asset base, with Tempo adding around 200 new tokenized assets, expanding the pool beyond the current 300+. Direct liquidity and price linkage from Nasdaq and NYSE help ensure stable prices and scale, a level of depth rarely found in tokenized markets that rely on limited liquidity pools. De Bode asserts that prior demand existed for on-chain securities, but asset variety and liquidity were constrained; the move promises deeper liquidity and a wider array of securities.
Real-world asset (RWA) tokenization remains a core trend shaping the blockchain space. The Tempo Global Market has seen rapid growth across Ethereum and BNB Chain, with lifetime trading volume totaling about $5.1 billion and total value locked (TVL) around $530 million. The Solana expansion directly reflects this trend, combining Solana’s speed and low fees with a vibrant developer ecosystem to position tokenized securities as a mainstay in on-chain assets. As the boundary between blockchain and Wall Street continues to blur, investors will have increasingly diverse options, and the RWA market could edge toward the $120 trillion scale.
