    Ondo Finance Says Biden-Era SEC Investigation Closed With No Charges

    Ondo Finance said on Monday that tokenization’s future looks brighter in the U.S., following the Securities and Exchange Commission’s closure of a years-long probe into its business. The regulator had spent years scrutinizing how the Ethereum-based decentralized finance platform creates blockchain-based representations of real-world assets, and whether the project’s ONDO token resembled a security, according to a blog post. Ondo said that the investigation, which was “initiated under the Biden a...

    Why Tokenized Assets Can't Flourish Without Liquidity: Securitize CEO

    Tokenization could make it easier for someone overseas to own a slice of Manhattan, but their ability to sell it may be overlooked, according to Securitize co-founder and CEO Carlos Domingo. When people started experimenting with digital representations of real-world assets years ago, they eventually came to realize that the technology has little bearing on the ability to sell investments quickly, with minimal loss in value, he told Decrypt in an interview. “Providing liquidity to the asset clas...
