Ondo Finance to Acquire Oasis Pro to Develop Regulated Tokenized Securities Market

Ondo Finance, a blockchain technology company focused on tokenized real-world assets, has officially announced its acquisition of Oasis Pro, a U.S.-regulated broker-dealer, Alternative Trading System (ATS), and Transfer Agent (TA).

The acquisition equips Ondo Finance with broker-dealer, ATS, and transfer agent licenses—enabling the company to directly offer regulated tokenized financial products to U.S. investors.

Nathan Allman, CEO of Ondo Finance, stated, “This unlocks the next major chapter of tokenized finance. This acquisition will empower us to realize our vision of building a robust and accessible tokenized financial system, backed by the strongest regulatory foundations.”

Pat LaVecchia, CEO of Oasis Pro, shared his excitement about the merger, saying, “We are proud to join forces with Ondo Finance, a true innovator in tokenized finance. This acquisition combines our brokerage platform and licenses with Ondo’s existing institutional-grade infrastructure and products, creating a comprehensive foundation for a regulated tokenized securities ecosystem.”

Oasis Pro’s Role in Tokenized Securities Innovation

Founded in 2019, Oasis Pro operates through its subsidiaries as an SEC-registered broker-dealer, ATS, and TA. The platform has been a pioneer in compliant innovation for digital securities, enabling settlement in fiat currencies and stablecoins like USDC and DAI.

As a FINRA member since 2020, Oasis Pro has actively contributed to shaping the regulatory framework for tokenized assets in the U.S. through its involvement in FINRA’s Crypto Working Group.

Tokenization: A Market Opportunity Worth Trillions

Tokenized stocks, which are digital assets backed 1:1 by publicly traded shares, are expected to exceed $18 trillion in market value by 2033, according to industry analysts.

Ondo Finance plans to launch access to tokenized stocks for non-U.S. investors in the coming months via its Global Markets platform. This initiative will be supported by partnerships with leading wallets, exchanges, and protocols.

Currently, Ondo Finance manages over $1.4 billion in tokenized assets, including tokenized U.S. Treasurys and its yield-bearing USDY token. Its infrastructure underpins a broad global network of custodians, public blockchain platforms, and onchain liquidity protocols — positioning Ondo as a leader in the real-world asset tokenization space.

Strategic Implications and Future Prospects

While the transaction is pending regulatory approval, Ondo Finance is optimistic about the transformative potential of this merger. The combined entity will focus on building a regulated tokenized securities ecosystem that caters to both institutional and retail investors.

This acquisition is part of a larger strategy that Ondo has been executing to scale tokenized asset offerings across jurisdictions.

Ondo Finance’s broader strategy, including its recent $250 million “Ondo Catalyst” initiative, further underscores its commitment to advancing the tokenization of real-world assets and developing onchain capital markets. These efforts signal Ondo’s ambition to become a central player in the rapidly growing tokenization industry.
