Securitize CEO: tokenization won't go mainstream without tradfi buyers

  • Securitize listed on the NYSE on July 2, 2026, under the ticker SECZ at a $1.25 billion valuation
  • The company tokenized its own shares worth $266-295 million on Avalanche and Solana
  • Securitize's assets under management topped $5 billion in Q3 2026
  • Clients include BlackRock (the BUIDL fund) and Apollo
Why it matters: The thesis points to a key constraint on the RWA segment: without an inflow of tradfi capital, secondary-market liquidity will remain low.
