<p><a href="https://x.com/DinariGlobal" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@DinariGlobal</a> has opened its tokenized equities platform to eligible American investors and businesses for the first time, listing 724 US-listed stocks including every company in the S&amp;P 500. Investors can buy and sell the tokenized shares using Circle's <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24USDC&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$USDC</a> stablecoin through self-custody wallets. The firm says this marks the first time US persons can access tokenized US-listed stocks directly from their own wallets.</p><p>The launch also extends to financial institutions via Dinari's broker-dealer subsidiary, Dinari Securities LLC, allowing broker-dealers, banks, fintechs and wealth platforms to offer tokenized securities products to both retail and institutional customers through a single technology integration. Dinari operates as a registered broker-dealer and SEC-registered transfer agent, holding memberships with FINRA and SIPC.</p><h2 id="how-dshares-work">How dShares Work</h2><p>Dinari's tokenized shares, known as dShares, are backed one-for-one by underlying stocks held in qualified custody. The structure is designed to provide NBBO execution, voting rights, dividends, corporate actions and ownership rights connected to the backing security, with dividends paid in $USDC. The offering runs through Dinari's regulated broker-dealer and transfer agent infrastructure, with partners including Circle, Stripe-owned Privy, Para and Monaco.</p><p>The stock tokens are available across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base and Avalanche, with support for Solana and Sei coming soon. Dinari's dShares are already distributed in more than 85 jurisdictions, with this launch extending the offering to eligible US investors and businesses for the first time.</p><h2 id="a-crowded-but-growing-market">A Crowded but Growing Market</h2><p>Dinari describes itself as a bridge between the $300 billion stablecoin market and the more than $60 trillion US equities market. The launch comes at a competitive moment for tokenized equities. Robinhood and Payward, Kraken's parent company, operate tokenized stock services outside the US through offshore structures, while Ondo Finance recently unveiled an SEC-compliant framework tied to BlackRock's iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF and Micron stock, though it is not yet available to US investors.</p><p>According to a recent report by venture firm a16z crypto, the market capitalisation of tokenized stocks grew approximately 600% to roughly $1.7 billion by the end of June. Citigroup has projected that the tokenized securities market could grow to $5.5 trillion by 2030.</p><p><strong>Sources:</strong><br><a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/in-an-industry-first-dinari-launches-724-tokenized-stocks-available-to-both-us-investors-and-businesses-302842099.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">PR Newswire: Dinari launches 724 tokenized stocks available to both US investors and businesses</a><br><a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/08/04/dinari-brings-tokenized-u-s-stocks-to-american-investors-as-equity-race-heats-up" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinDesk: Dinari brings tokenized U.S. stocks to American investors</a><br><a href="https://fortune.com/2026/08/04/dinari-stripe-apple-alums-partnership-circle-tokenized-stocks-us-investors/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Fortune: Dinari partners with Circle to offer tokenized stocks to U.S. investors</a></p>
