Gate has partnered with Ondo Global Markets to launch the Gate Ondo Zone, an innovative platform designed for global investors. Users can trade tokenized stocks and ETFs directly with USDT, with these assets backed by actual securities held by compliant custodians—providing greater transparency and security. This collaboration isn’t just an upgrade in features; it’s a milestone in merging traditional finance with the crypto ecosystem, giving investors seamless access to global markets around the clock.
Tokenized assets refer to converting stocks, ETFs, or other traditional financial instruments into blockchain-based tokens. This breakthrough provides several major advantages:
1. Global Investment Gateway
Investors gain direct access to tokenized assets of leading technology companies such as Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, and Nvidia, as well as major indices like the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500. There is no need for a traditional brokerage account, as users can access international markets through the platform.
2. 24/7 Trading
Unlike conventional markets with restricted trading hours, the Gate Ondo Zone operates continuously, enabling users to trade in response to market movements at any time.
3. Security and Transparency
Custodians hold actual securities backing each tokenized asset, ensuring value integrity. All trades are recorded on-chain, making every transaction fully traceable and tamper-proof.
4. Lower Barriers through Fractional Shares
Even high-priced stocks like Apple are accessible via fractional share trading, which increases participation opportunities in global industry leaders.
As of this writing, the Gate Ondo Zone supports a variety of tokenized stocks and ETFs, including:
These assets represent many of the world’s most influential companies and indices, addressing a wide spectrum of investor profiles.
