PRESS RELEASE.
Geneva & Miami – [April 10, 2026] — Securitize (which has announced a proposed business combination with Cantor Equity Partners II, Inc. (Nasdaq: CEPT)), the world’s leader in tokenizing real-world assets, today announced an integration with the TRON blockchain, a global network known for its scale in digital asset payments and decentralized finance. The integration expands Securitize’s multichain footprint and positions tokenized securities to access one of the largest and most active blockchain ecosystems globally.
Tokenized funds and securities issued through Securitize will be made available on TRON, joining a network with over 373 million accounts, $26 billion in total value locked, and upwards of $7.9 trillion in annual transfer volume. The integration will support the launch of a new real-world asset product expected to debut on TRON, with further details to be announced in the near future. Securitize works with leading global asset managers, indicating the level of institutional participation that may be reflected in future fund offerings on the network.
“Tokenization is about bringing real-world financial assets onto infrastructure that can support global scale and continuous market access,” said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. “TRON has built one of the most widely used blockchain networks for value transfer, and this integration positions tokenized securities to tap into that reach over time. While this is an early step, it reflects where the market is heading: toward broader distribution, deeper liquidity, and more accessible financial products onchain.”
“TRON’s mission has always been to expand access to financial infrastructure while improving efficiency at a global scale,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “Our collaboration with Securitize, a leader in tokenization, continues the convergence of traditional finance and DeFi in a powerful new way. Together, we’re building the infrastructure for a global, onchain financial system.”
The collaboration also emphasizes a broader industry shift toward bringing institutional-grade financial products onto high-performance public blockchains. As tokenization matures, networks like TRON, known for their efficiency, accessibility, and dominance in stablecoin activity, represent a natural environment for regulated assets to evolve beyond traditional market constraints and into more dynamic, programmable financial ecosystems.
