Securitize Explains Why a Tokenized Stock Is Not Always a Share

  • —October 8 launch: 12 U.S. stocks on Solana, settled in USDC
  • —Tokens are backed 1:1 by shares but are security entitlements, not shares
  • —Dividends and voting rights pass through the Securitize Markets structure
  • —Direct registration requires a separate issuer-sponsored CET process
Why it matters: Clarifies for investors that holding a token is not the same as holding a share, setting a disclosure standard for the tokenized equities market.
