Tokenized Stocks Surge 220% in July Amid DeFi-Style Growth

The tokenized equity market cap hit $370 million by July end, with the core segment excluding Exodus shares reaching $53.6 million.

#Blockchain addresses holding tokenized stocks exploded to over 90,000 from just 1,600 in June, signaling massive demand surge.

The growth mirrors early DeFi boom patterns when TVL rose from $1 billion to $100 billion within two years.

Major exchanges, including #KRAKEN and #ByBit , now offer 60+ tokenized stocks featuring blue-chip names like Amazon and Nvidia.

Binance Research projects the sector could reach $1.3 trillion if just 1% of global equities get tokenized on blockchain.

This would make tokenized stocks worth eight times more than the DeFi market at its peak valuation.

Backed Finance's xStocks on #Solana offer 24/7 trading, transferable assets, and commission-free trading on select exchanges.

More sophisticated DeFi infrastructure will be needed to support the growing tokenized financial products ecosystem.

The end goal extends beyond simply bringing traditional products on-chain to unlock new accessibility levels.

Tokenized equities represent a major inflection point in the broader transition to #tokenized hybrid finance systems.
