Ondo Finance, a leader in tokenizing real-world assets, today announced the launch of the Ondo Bridge in collaboration with LayerZero.
This bridging solution enables seamless cross-chain transfers of Ondo's tokenized stocks and ETFs, while allowing over 2,600 protocols, wallets, and applications integrated with LayerZero to easily add Ondo global market assets.
The Ondo Bridge is now live on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with plans to support additional EVM chains in the future. It is the largest tokenized securities bridge, supporting over 100 stocks and ETFs.
Cross-chain capabilities provide DeFi applications with broader liquidity and more flexible usage options, while maintaining the reliability and predictability expected of institutional-grade real-world assets.
Key Features:
Rapid Deployment to New Chains: The Ondo Bridge can connect to other EVM chains within weeks.
Single Path for All Assets: All Ondo global market assets can now be bridged across EVM networks through LayerZero's standardized framework.
Built for Scale: The architecture simplifies operations and is designed to support the flow of hundreds of assets across multiple chains.
"Now is the perfect time for Ondo Global Markets to rapidly expand within the multi-chain economy," said Ian De Bode, President of Ondo Finance. "We are accelerating the creation of advanced cross-chain use cases and embedding Ondo tokenized stocks as foundational DeFi assets."
"Tokenized assets are quickly becoming a better version of all existing assets in traditional markets: more transparent, more programmable, and capable of moving at internet speed and certainty," said Bryan Pellegrino, CEO of LayerZero Labs. "We are thrilled to support Ondo in bringing the next generation of financial assets on-chain and making them widely accessible within the global crypto economy."
Since its launch on Ethereum in September, Ondo Global Markets has become the world's largest tokenized securities platform, with a total value locked exceeding $400 million and trading volume surpassing $2 billion. The platform recently expanded to BNB Chain, providing the network's 3.4 million daily active users with access to on-chain securities.
Stargate has already integrated Ondo assets into its protocol via the Ondo Bridge. The architecture will expand to new EVM networks in the coming weeks, accelerating democratized access to U.S. markets while enabling new cross-chain DeFi use cases.
