MetaMask, the popular self-custodial wallet, has added access to tokenized U.S. stocks, exchange-traded funds and commodities through a new integration with Ondo Finance’s Global Markets platform, the companies said Tuesday.
Eligible MetaMask mobile users in “supported non-U.S. jurisdictions” can now buy and trade more than 200 U.S. tokenized securities, including shares tracking companies like Tesla, Apple and Nvidia, as well as ETFs tied to gold, silver and the Nasdaq, directly inside the wallet, without opening a traditional brokerage account, according to the announcement.
The launch marks one of the first times tokenized U.S. equities and ETFs have been made natively available through a major self-custodial wallet, highlighting how real-world asset tokenization might become more closely integrated with traditional financial infrastructure.
The move comes as tokenized real-world assets have grown into a market worth more than $22 billion globally, according to the companies, as crypto firms look to blur the lines between traditional finance and on-chain markets.
“Access to U.S. markets still runs through legacy rails. Brokerage accounts, fragmented apps, and rigid trading windows haven’t meaningfully evolved,” said Joe Lubin, the founder and CEO of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum, in a press release shared with CoinDesk. “Bringing Ondo’s tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly into MetaMask shows what a better model looks like. A single, self-custodial wallet where people can move between crypto and traditional assets without intermediaries and without giving up control.“
