Dinari has become the first platform to receive regulatory clearance in the U.S. to offer tokenized shares of public companies to domestic investors.
Dinari's Regulatory Approval
Dinari obtained broker-dealer status through its subsidiary and plans to launch its licensed tokenized stock trading platform in the next quarter after onboarding with the SEC.
Advantages of Tokenizing Equities
Tokenizing equities involves converting traditional stocks into blockchain tokens for quicker and cheaper settlement. This model aims to broaden access for retail investors and enable real-time trading.
Expansion into Private Markets
Interest in tokenization extends beyond equities. Investment firm Republic has introduced rSpaceX—tokenized promissory notes tied to SpaceX shares, becoming tradable after a year of holding.
Dinari's success in obtaining this license reflects the growing confidence in tokenized assets, despite challenges like the lack of international regulation.
