In a major regulatory milestone, Dinari has reportedly become the first company to receive U.S. approval to offer tokenized stocks—digital assets designed to mirror traditional equities on the blockchain.
Tokenized stocks, long available only to users outside the United States, are now edging toward domestic legitimacy. These assets represent real shares, like Apple or Tesla, through digital tokens that track their market value, and are gaining traction as part of the growing real-world asset (RWA) sector.
Dinari’s CEO Gabriel Otte sees this move as a stepping stone toward a fully on-chain financial system—not just brokerages, but exchanges as well. Rather than serving customers directly, Dinari partners with platforms to integrate its services, giving other companies access to its tokenized instruments.
The firm’s digital equities, known as dShares, are already accessible internationally, but with U.S. regulatory clearance, Dinari plans to launch its broker-dealer operations within the next quarter.
Meanwhile, the broader RWA race is intensifying. Firms like Plume Network and Backed are also looking to bring tokenized U.S. equities to users. Industry optimism is high—Backed’s marketing lead expects tokenized stock volumes to reach up to $2 billion by year’s end, while BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has urged regulators to fast-track digital securities.
As the tokenization of traditional finance accelerates, Dinari’s approval could serve as a model for others—and signal the beginning of a much larger shift in how assets are traded and held on-chain.
