$ONDO FINANCE ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF OASIS PRO, INCLUDING ITS SEC-REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER, ATS, AND TRANSFER AGENT

- @OndoFinance has announced its plans to acquire Oasis Pro, marking a significant step toward developing a regulated ecosystem for tokenized securities in the United States.

- The acquisition includes Oasis Pro’s SEC-registered broker-dealer, Alternative Trading System (ATS), and Transfer Agent (TA), providing $Ondo with the complete regulatory infrastructure needed to expand its tokenized financial offerings in the U.S. market.

Key Details:

- Oasis Pro, founded in 2019, operates one of the first U.S.-regulated ATS platforms authorized to settle digital securities in both fiat and stablecoins such as $USDC and DAI.

- As a FINRA member and SEC-registered entity, Oasis Pro has played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. crypto regulation, including its contributions to FINRA’s Crypto Working Group.

- $Ondo Finance, which already has over $1.4 billion in tokenized assets under management, sees this acquisition as the foundation for unlocking “the next major chapter of tokenized finance,” according to CEO Nathan Allman.

- Pat LaVecchia, CEO of Oasis Pro, will join $Ondo’s leadership, bringing extensive expertise in compliant digital asset infrastructure.

- This move gives $Ondo a comprehensive license stack, enhancing its ability to issue and trade tokenized financial products on U.S. soil, a critical advancement amid growing institutional interest in blockchain-based securities.

- The tokenized stock market, which analysts predict could surpass $18 trillion by 2033, represents a significant growth opportunity that $Ondo is strategically positioning itself to capitalize on.

- While the company will initially expand access to tokenized stocks for non-U.S. investors through its Global Markets platform, this acquisition positions $Ondo at the forefront of regulatory-compliant innovation in tokenized real-world assets.

- By aligning advanced tokenization technology with regulatory rigor, $Ondo Finance is setting the stage for a more accessible, secure, and legally compliant tokenized financial system in the U.S. and beyond.
