"The move is likely to provide a boost for those pushing for companies to issue some of their stock on blockchain."
I hinted at this recently. This is the right way to bring IPOs on-chain, read below. Now let's launch the first one soon.
Welcome, Rebecca and Manolo, to our board of directors. We are very excited to have you with us. This completes our new board of directors as a publicly traded company!
When I was thinking about doing a SPAC to go public, I was told: "Don't do it, you won't raise a PIPE, and SPACs get on average 95% redemptions, and you will IPO with no cash". We raised an oversubscribed $225M PIPE, the largest of any operating business for a SPAC since 2021, and yesterday we had less than 30% redemptions, so we are going public with over $400M on July 2nd at the NYSE. The next stage in Securitize history starts that day.

Carl Vogel on the biggest winners from the SEC's tokenization exemption and why Securitize has the strongest hand:
"Vertical integration is the superpower. In AI and in crypto."
"Securitize and Superstate already have tens of thousands of KYC'd users. Green light to launch venues."
"Decentralized perpetuals can't easily KYC their way up the stack. Regulated players win."

At Securitize, we believe in native tokenization and that the issuer needs a seat at the table.

owning an interest in an SPV is not the same as owning the actual stock. This should also be a warning about the difference between wrapped equity tokens and native equity tokens. If you own a wrapped token you do NOT own the actual thing and you are going to deal with these types of ugly situations. Only native tokens allow you to own the actual thing and insulate yourself. And only the company/issuer itself can issue notice tokens!!!

I cannot agree more. Regulators should be there to protect investors, and this accidentally introduces more market risk and fragmentation
