Tokenisation : Securitize makes its debut on the New York Stock Exchange

Securitize is set to debut on the New York Stock Exchange on July 2, 2026 under the symbol SECZ. This listing places one of the main crypto tokenization infrastructures at the heart of Wall Street, following the approval of its merger with Cantor Equity Partners II.

Crypto: Securitize gets its ticket to Wall Street

The shareholders of Cantor Equity Partners II have approved the merger with Securitize. The company resulting from the operation will take the name Securitize Corp. It will be listed on the NYSE as of July 2, subject to the completion scheduled the day before.

The company already holds a strategic position in institutional crypto finance. It notably provides the infrastructure for the BlackRock BUIDL fund. This tokenized monetary product now exceeds several billion dollars in assets.

Securitize also works with Apollo, KKR, Hamilton Lane, and VanEck. These partnerships allow it to connect traditional managers to blockchains without abandoning the regulatory requirements specific to financial markets.

Its stock market debut will therefore give investors direct exposure to a company specialized in tokenization. Until now, this theme was mainly accessible through tokens, private funds, or more diversified financial companies.

A crypto merger valued at 400 million dollars

The merger should bring around 400 million dollars in gross proceeds to Securitize. This amount includes a private PIPE financing of 225 million dollars, with demand reportedly exceeding the initially available supply.

Less than 30% of Cantor Equity Partners II holders requested redemption of their shares. The company thus retains more than 71% of the funds placed in the SPAC trust. This level reduces the risk of the operation’s resources dwindling before the listing.

The capital obtained will be used to accelerate the company’s development. Securitize will be able to strengthen its infrastructures, expand its products, and forge new agreements with institutions wishing to place securities on the blockchain.

The listing also provides an acquisition currency. A public company can use its shares to finance buyouts or attract partners. However, it must publish more information on its revenues, risks, and performance.

Crypto tokenization scales up

Tokenization allows representing funds, bonds, private credit, or shares on a blockchain. These assets can then circulate faster, be fractioned, and sometimes be used as collateral in financial protocols.

This sector no longer relies solely on experimental projects. Large managers are now developing their own products. Tokenized assets attract institutional capital seeking faster settlements and better automation.

Securitize claims to manage more than 4 billion dollars in assets. Its activity combines digital securities issuance, ownership transfer, fund administration, and access to regulated trading infrastructures.

This model becomes valuable as the boundary between stock exchange and crypto market fades. Institutions do not only want to create a token. They seek infrastructure capable of identifying investors, distributing income, and complying with securities laws.

SECZ still needs to convince investors

Listing on the NYSE represents a symbolic victory, but it does not guarantee the success of the SECZ stock. Companies resulting from SPAC mergers can experience high volatility after their stock market debut.

Securitize also depends on the growth of crypto tokenization. If institutions slow their projects or regulations become stricter, its revenues could grow more slowly than expected.

Benchmark Equity Research has maintained a buy recommendation with a target of 16 dollars. This estimate is based notably on licenses held by Securitize in the United States and Europe. However, it remains a projection, not a guarantee of performance.

Competition is also intensifying. Banks, exchanges, and crypto companies are building their own solutions. The NYSE itself is working on a platform dedicated to tokenized securities, while several networks seek to become Wall Street’s preferred layer.

However, Securitize has a concrete advantage: its products already operate with major managers. Its stock market debut will now provide the market with more precise figures to measure this activity. It will especially show whether BlackRock’s success in DeFi can translate into sustainable growth for a listed crypto infrastructure.
