Summary

Securitize began trading on the New York Stock Exchange as SECZ on July 2, 2026, after closing its business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II on July 1, and simultaneously tokenized its own common shares on Solana and Avalanche through its regulated platform. The company said it issued about $295 million of tokenized shares at launch, while rwa.xyz later showed $270.6 million onchain, making SECZ the largest tokenized stock by value. Unlike common tokenized equity structures that use a custodian or wrapper, Securitize said the tokens are the same common stock trading under SECZ, with the same voting rights, dividend entitlements, legal ownership and cap-table recognition as brokerage-held shares. Access is limited to eligible U.S. investors who complete compliance checks, and trading occurs through Securitize's registered Alternative Trading System rather than open public order books. SECZ opened at $12.45, reached $13.70 intraday and closed at $12.30 on debut, up about 4.4%, with after-hours trading at roughly $12.60. The launch came as the broader tokenized stock market reached about $1.96 billion in distributed value, according to rwa.xyz, highlighting growing interest in blockchain-based trading of public equities.
