Dinari and tZERO announced a partnership Wednesday to create a turnkey platform for tokenized U.S. equities aimed at broker-dealers. The move comes as the tokenized stock market reached $2.16 billion after growing 471 percent over the past year.
The companies will combine Dinari's tokenized stock platform with tZERO's brokerage, custody, clearing and settlement infrastructure. This allows financial firms to launch blockchain-based equity offerings without building their own market systems.
Dinari CEO Gabriel Otte said tokenized equities will not reach mainstream adoption until broker-dealers can offer them as naturally as traditional securities. The platform will also support shareholder communications and future onchain services.
Dinari obtained broker-dealer registration for its subsidiary in June 2025. tZERO was founded in 2014 and has focused on regulated infrastructure for blockchain securities.
RWA.xyz data shows tokenized stock transfers have topped $8.4 billion amid expanding blockchain equity initiatives by exchanges and financial companies.
