Blockchain.com and Ondo Finance have expanded their partnership to bring tokenised real-world assets to European users, enabling access to over 200 US stocks and ETFs through the Blockchain.com DeFi wallet across 30 European Economic Area states.
The expansion follows the companies' 2025 launch in Africa and South America, where they first introduced tokenised equities to users through the DeFi wallet platform.

"By bringing US equities onchain for our European users, we are providing self-custody solutions through our DeFi wallet that are faster, more efficient and completely self-owned that remain unmatched by traditional banks. Building on our momentum in Africa and South America through this partnership with Ondo, we are making a more inclusive and secure financial system a reality for millions across Europe and beyond."
Ondo Global Markets, which launched in September 2025, has achieved total value locked surpassing $556 million and trading volume exceeding $8.7 billion. The platform operates in the real-world asset sector, offering blockchain-based access to traditional financial instruments.

Ian De Bode, President, Ondo Finance, said:
"Extending availability to users across the EEA through the Blockchain.com DeFi wallet allows Ondo tokenised stocks and ETFs to reach a previously unavailable segment of the platform's global user base. We look forward to seeing how this expansion supports adoption as we continue to drive tokenisation across global markets."
European users can now buy, sell and hold tokenised NYSE-listed equities and exchange-traded funds directly within the Blockchain.com wallet interface. The offering includes tokenised precious metals ETFs, with SLVon providing exposure to silver and IAUon offering access to gold markets.
The service removes the requirement for traditional brokerage accounts, allowing users to manage assets through self-custody wallet solutions.
