Securitize became the first company to conduct a listing on the NYSE simultaneously with a blockchain placement.

SECZ shares started at $12.45, reached a high of $13.70, and closed at $12.30. Securitize also launched tokenized versions of the shares on Solana and Avalanche. These tokens will be securities, not just backed 1:1 with the underlying asset. The tokenized SECZ shares retain all rights, including voting rights and dividends. They will also be available around the clock, regardless of exchange trading hours. Securitize conducted the listing following a merger with Cantor Equity Partners II, which is connected to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick. The company is a leader in the tokenization of RWAs with a TVL of $4.4 billion. The platform services 650 funds and collaborates with BlackRock, Apollo, KKR, Hamilton Lane, and VanEck. According to CryptoRank, since 2018 the project has raised at least $521.8 million. BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, Santander, Coinbase, ARK Invest, Circle, and other major companies have invested in Securitize.
