Ondo Finance has unveiled the Global Markets Alliance, a new industry coalition uniting leading wallets, exchanges, and custodians to create shared standards and infrastructure for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). Founding members include the Solana Foundation, Bitget Wallet, Trust Wallet, Rainbow Wallet, Jupiter, BitGo, Fireblocks, 1inch, and Alpaca.
The alliance aims to accelerate the adoption of tokenized securities by standardizing technical and compliance frameworks, enabling cross-platform interoperability, and improving access and liquidity for investors globally.
The announcement comes ahead of Ondo Global Markets, a forthcoming platform that will allow non-U.S. users to gain direct on-chain exposure to U.S. public securities—such as stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds—via integrated applications and wallets.
“Access to U.S. capital markets has long been gated and inefficient,” said Nathan Allman, CEO of Ondo Finance. “By aligning with top platforms, we’re building the infrastructure to offer both crypto and traditional financial products side by side—securely, transparently, and globally.”
Key Contributions by Members:
- Bitget Wallet, Trust Wallet, and Rainbow Wallet will integrate Ondo’s tokenized asset standards to enable secure, self-custodial access to RWAs.
- Jupiter and 1inch will provide programmatic trading and liquidity routing for tokenized assets.
- BitGo and Fireblocks will deliver institutional-grade custody and off-exchange settlement solutions.
- Alpaca will offer brokerage infrastructure specifically for tokenized securities.
“Tokenized securities are more than a new asset class—they’re the foundation for the next era of global finance,” said Eowyn Chen, CEO of Trust Wallet. “This alliance moves us closer to a future where anyone with a smartphone can access real-world opportunities directly and securely.”
“By supporting Ondo’s tokenized asset standards, Bitget Wallet is committed to secure, self-custodial access to RWAs,” added Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet.
“We’re at the beginning of the tokenization renaissance,” said Kash Dhanda, COO of Jupiter. “Our goal is simple: make these assets accessible to every person with an internet connection.”
“We’re proud to support Ondo’s vision for global RWA access,” said Michael Shaulov, CEO of Fireblocks. “Tokenized securities bring transparency, efficiency, and programmability to traditional markets.”
“Aligning on standards ensures broad compatibility and adoption,” said Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo. “It’s a major step forward for bringing trusted, compliant tokenized assets into everyday crypto experiences.”
The Global Markets Alliance marks a major step toward unifying blockchain-native tools with traditional finance, laying the groundwork for a more open, programmable global financial system.
