Securitize executed a historic dual listing on July 2, beginning trading on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker SECZ while launching tokenized versions of those identical shares on the Solana and Avalanche networks.
The listing followed a SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II, approved by shareholders on June 29, raising approximately $400 million. On its first day, roughly $266 million in tokenized SECZ shares were issued, making it the largest tokenized stock launch to date. Shares rose more than 8%.
Traditional investors can buy SECZ through standard brokerages. Crypto-native investors can hold the tokenized version on-chain. It is the same equity with identical rights, merely operating on different settlement rails.
Securitize serves as the NYSE's designated digital transfer agent, a role formalized in March 2026. The firm previously executed the first on-chain issuance of public equity for Exodus Movement in December 2024 and currently manages over $4 billion in assets for BlackRock.
The selection of Solana and Avalanche represents a significant validation for these networks. For crypto-native investors, on-chain settlement may eventually enable composability with DeFi protocols, allowing tokenized stock to be used as collateral or traded continuously.
