Securitize

Securitize, the platform behind BlackRock’s tokenized fund, will go public via a SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II, valuing the company at $1.25 billion. CEO Carlos Domingo highlights the lack of publicly traded, pure-play tokenization companies, anticipating strong market performance and offering investors direct exposure to the tokenization trend. The move follows the surge in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), with the market growing significantly. Securitize aims to digitize its own equity and believes blockchain will transform finance within a decade, creating a more efficient and transparent system.
