ONDO traded near $0.403 as broader buying in tokenized-asset plays, DTCC-linked tokenized securities expansion, U.S. regulatory optimism and Ondo’s SBI partnership kept the project in focus.

ONDO

Summary

Ondo Finance’s ONDO token remained in focus around July 21 as demand for real-world asset, or RWA, plays combined with new tokenized-securities infrastructure developments. ONDO traded at about $0.403, with one source citing a 15.71% daily gain to $0.4030 and another citing a 3.06% 24-hour rise to $0.402932; the latter also reported $208.38 million in daily volume and a market capitalization of about $1.96 billion, ranking 35th. Support for the token came from broader sector buying, expectations of a more favorable U.S. regulatory backdrop following discussions by the SEC and CFTC on digital-commodity classification, and Ondo’s integration with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s tokenization infrastructure. Ondo said CRCLon and SPYon now connect with DTC Tokenized Entitlements created through DTCC’s Tokenization Service, representing shares of Circle and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF while retaining the same rights, protections, CUSIP identifiers and market symbols as the traditional versions. DTCC began limited production activity in July and plans a broader rollout in October 2026, with more than 50 firms in the working group. Additional attention came from July reports that DTCC would begin a blockchain-based stock trade processing pilot, Robinhood’s July launch of Robinhood Chain as another distribution channel for Ondo’s tokenized assets, Ondo Perps reporting more than $1 billion in seven-day volume and over $3 billion cumulatively, and Ondo’s partnership with Japan’s SBI Group on asset tokenization and JPYC-based settlement.
