Ondo Finance announced today that its SEC-registered broker-dealer subsidiary, Oasis Pro Markets, has secured critical U.S. regulatory authorizations. This development allows compliant tokenized corporate equities and funds to be offered to U.S. financial institutions and millions of American retail investors under full SEC and FINRA oversight. The move marks a significant breakthrough for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization in the United States.
Regulatory Authorizations and Scope
Oasis Pro Markets has been approved to offer OTC retailing, underwritten primary offerings, private placements, and other regulated offerings. The authorizations establish a compliant platform for U.S. issuers to conduct primary offerings and for both institutional and retail investors to engage in secondary trading of tokenized securities. All operations will remain under strict SEC and FINRA supervision, ensuring investor protections while leveraging blockchain technology.
Expanded Market Access for Investors
The new structure allows U.S. investors to access a broad selection of holdings such as NMS stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, index funds, IPOs, and securities listed on secondary markets. Settlement can be made with any traditional fiat currency or any stablecoins supported by the platform, such as directly from blockchain-based wallets. This flexibility incorporates the efficiency of the distributed ledger technology and familiar financial instruments.
The approvals also provide for omnibus accounts via integrations with existing broker-dealer and advisory channels. This allows institutional investors, registered investment advisers, and retirement accounts to get access to tokenized securities through their existing platform, significantly lowering the friction in onboarding and expanding participation.
Building on Strategic Acquisition
The development builds upon Ondo’s acquisition of Oasis Pro, which includes an SEC-registered broker-dealer, an alternative trading system (ATS), and a registered transfer agent. The Oasis Pro TA provides advanced digital asset services, such as on-chain capitalization table management, shareholder rights administration, and cross-asset collateral mobility. These capabilities form a strong foundation for scaling up the management of tokenized securities.
Major U.S. Market Expansion and Growth Catalyst
This authorization opens tokenized equities, ETFs, IPOs, and funds to hundreds of millions of U.S. retail and institutional investors, including retirement accounts. It removes a key regulatory barrier and grants Ondo access to the world’s largest capital market. The company already reports strong international performance, with over $20 billion in cumulative trading volume and more than $1 billion in tokenized stocks TVL.
Benefits to ONDO Token and Future Outlook
ONDO serves as the governance token for the Ondo DAO, playing roles in incentives and ecosystem decisions. Greater platform success is expected to increase its utility and demand, strengthening the overall ecosystem even without direct revenue sharing.
This strategic expansion solidifies Ondo Finance’s leadership in RWA tokenization and signals accelerating mainstream adoption of blockchain-based securities in the United States.
ONDO Price Eyes 16% Surge With $0.39 Breakout
Since last week, the ONDO price has bounced from $0.345 to $0.401, registering a gain of 16.3%. Subsequently, the asset’s market capitalization reached $1.95 billion.
Amid this recovery, the coin price managed to reclaim monthly resistance around $0.39, along with the 200-day exponential moving average. With today’s price pullback, driven by re-escalated geopolitical tension in the Middle East, the ONDO could return to $0.39 to seek suitable support.
The average directional index at 22% and rising indicates increasing buyer conviction and potentially an early-stage mid-term rally. If the $0.39 support holds, the ONDO price could surge 16% higher from the current value to challenge $0.47 resistance.
A broader analysis of ONDO’s daily chart shows this $0.47 resistance as the key neckline barrier for a classic reversal pattern called cup and handle. The chart setup is majorly spotted at the bottom for a bear cycle and creates a major reversal setup for buyers.
Thus, a potential breakout from the $0.47 ceiling could accelerate the buying pressure for further recovery.
