MetaMask has added access to more than 200 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs through a new integration with Ondo Finance, expanding users’ ability to trade traditional assets directly inside the wallet.
Summary
- Ondo’s tokenized stocks and ETFs are now available inside MetaMask.
- The integration allows users to access traditional assets without brokers.
- The move reflects growing demand for onchain financial products.
Ondo announced the update on Feb. 3, saying its Ondo Global Markets platform is now supported in MetaMask.
The integration allows eligible mobile users in supported regions to access tokenized equities, exchange-traded funds, and commodity-linked products without leaving the app or using third-party brokers.
Tokenized stocks and ETFs arrive inside MetaMask
The partnership gives MetaMask users access to tokenized versions of major U.S. stocks, including Tesla, Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Amazon. In addition to individual stocks, traders can access tokenized ETFs such as IWM and QQQ. Tokenized funds also provide exposure to commodities such as gold, silver, copper, and rare earth metals.
Since its Sept. 2025 launch, Ondo Global Markets, the arm that issues these products, has grown significantly. The platform’s total value locked has now climbed past $500 million.
Although minting and redemption continue to follow traditional market hours, the tokens themselves can be transferred around the clock across Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain.
The integration brings traditional financial products into a self-custodial setting, allowing users to hold and move tokenized securities alongside cryptocurrencies. Ondo (ONDO) said this setup removes the need for separate brokerage accounts and reduces reliance on centralized platforms.
“MetaMask is where millions of users already manage their onchain assets, and integrating Ondo Global Markets introduces an entirely new asset class into that familiar wallet experience,” said Ian De Bode, President at Ondo Finance.
Joe Lubin, founder of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum, said the move shows how crypto wallets can bridge traditional and onchain finance without sacrificing user control.
Ondo pushes deeper into institutional tokenization
Ondo revealed the MetaMask integration during the 2026 Ondo Summit in New York, using the stage to showcase how real-world assets can move onto the blockchain. The event brought together voices from banks, regulators, and financial firms, signaling growing momentum for blockchain-based solutions in traditional markets.
During the summit, Ondo outlined plans to grow its Global Markets platform to include thousands of tokenized securities, ranging from individual stocks to ETFs and mutual funds. Ondo Chain came up as well, with speakers emphasizing that it was built specifically to meet regulatory standards and institutional expectations.
Much of the conversation focused on how tokenization could speed up settlement, cut costs, and keep markets operating for longer hours. Several speakers also noted a shift in sentiment, saying banks and asset managers are becoming more open to regulated, onchain access to traditional financial products.
Market watchers view the MetaMask partnership as a practical step toward broader use of tokenized assets, particularly among retail users who already depend on self-custodial wallets for crypto and DeFi activity.
