Ondo expands tokenized stocks access to near.com and 30+ blockchains

Ondo Finance is opening up tokenized stocks access to a much wider crypto audience, rolling out its Ondo Stocks platform on near.com and the NEAR Intents network. The move means users of near.com’s crypto account can now tap into tokenized U.S. equities, ETFs and commodity-linked products without ever touching a traditional brokerage account, starting with an initial batch of 20 tokenized assets.

Key takeaways

• Ondo Stocks, already the largest tokenized securities platform globally with more than $1 billion in TVL and $26 billion-plus in trading volume, is now live on near.com and NEAR Intents.
• The launch starts with 20 tokenized assets, including Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, the QQQ ETF, and commodity-linked tokens SLV and IAU.
• Near.com runs on NEAR Intents, a cross-chain execution layer that connects to more than 30 blockchain networks.
• Transactions can settle on a NEAR private shard without being tied to a user’s identity.
• Ondo Stocks was already live on Solana, Ethereum and BNB Chain before this integration.

Ondo Stocks Launches on Near.com and NEAR Intents

Ondo Stocks going live on near.com marks a new distribution channel for a platform that, according to Ondo Finance, already sits at the top of the tokenized securities market. Near.com functions as a crypto account rather than a brokerage, letting users hold, swap, earn and pay across multiple networks from a single interface, with no bank or brokerage sitting in the middle of the transaction.

Tokenized U.S. Stocks and ETFs Available From Day One

Right out of the gate, eligible near.com users in supported jurisdictions get exposure to a curated slate of 20 tokenized products. That lineup includes some of the most heavily traded names in U.S. markets: Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft and Amazon. Beyond individual stocks, users can also access broad-market exposure through the QQQ ETF, plus commodity-linked tokens such as SLV, which tracks silver, and IAU, which tracks gold.

This gives near.com users a way to gain tokenized U.S. equities exposure directly from their crypto account, sidestepping the usual onboarding steps tied to traditional stock trading.

Confidential Settlement Through a NEAR Private Shard

One detail that sets this integration apart is how transactions are settled. NEAR Intents allows transaction activity to be kept confidential, with settlement happening on a NEAR private shard that isn’t linked back to a user’s identity. In practice, that means the mechanics of moving tokenized stock exposure around the network don’t automatically expose who is behind each transaction.

NEAR Intents Opens the Door to 30+ Blockchains

Why does this matter beyond near.com itself? Because NEAR Intents isn’t just powering one app — it’s a cross-chain execution layer that near.com sits on top of, and that layer already reaches more than 30 blockchain networks. That scale is what turns a single crypto account into a gateway for tokenized stocks access across a much broader slice of the crypto ecosystem.

Cross-Chain Routing to Any Wallet or App

NEAR Intents extends access to those same 20 tokenized assets found on near.com, directing them toward any wallet, application or chain linked to the network, with near.com serving as the initial interface for the rollout while NEAR Intents operates as the cross-chain distribution layer that pushes the tokenized stocks deeper into the ecosystem.

That distinction matters for how the integration scales going forward: near.com gives users a front door, but the routing infrastructure underneath is what lets the same tokenized assets show up in other wallets and applications without Ondo having to build a separate integration for each one.

A Bigger Push for Global Access to Ondo Stocks

The near.com integration doesn’t replace Ondo’s existing footprint — it adds to it. Ondo tokenized stocks were already live across Solana, Ethereum and BNB Chain before this launch, backed by a growing network of wallets, exchanges, custodians and protocols that support the assets.

Already Live on Solana, Ethereum and BNB Chain

That multi-chain foundation is part of why the near.com and NEAR Intents rollout is being framed as an expansion rather than a first step. Ondo Stocks has been building out chain support and third-party integrations steadily, and near.com becomes the latest addition to that distribution map.

Solver-Based Routing Lowers Barriers

Technically, the near.com integration works through a solver-based routing approach that directs users from near.com straight to Ondo Stocks assets across multiple chains in a single flow. Rather than forcing users to manually bridge assets or switch networks themselves, the system handles that routing behind the scenes.

As more ecosystems plug into Ondo Stocks through NEAR Intents and gain direct wallet support, tokenized U.S. markets become reachable to a wider global audience with fewer barriers than before. This is where the strategic weight of the near.com launch really sits: it’s less about one new app and more about widening the pipes that carry tokenized stocks access to whichever wallet or chain a user already prefers.

Ondo Stocks’ Scale: $1B TVL, $26B in Volume

Context helps explain why this integration is getting attention. Ondo Stocks is described as the largest tokenized securities platform globally, with more than $1 billion in total value locked and tens of thousands of asset holders driving over $26 billion in cumulative trading volume. Those figures put the near.com launch in perspective — this isn’t a small pilot program bolted onto an unproven product, but an extension of a platform that has already built substantial scale in the tokenized securities space.

For crypto users who have been locked out of easy access to U.S. equities and ETFs without going through a traditional brokerage, the combination of near.com’s multi-chain crypto account and Ondo’s tokenized asset lineup offers a more direct route in — one that now spans Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and, as of this launch, the more than 30 networks reachable through NEAR Intents.
