NEAR’s September 22, 2026 partnership with Ondo Finance brought Ondo Stocks into near.com. Eligible users can buy, trade and hold tokenized U.S.-market products alongside crypto in one account, without opening a separate brokerage account. The simpler purchase flow does not remove investor-eligibility restrictions or turn the tokens into conventional brokerage shares.

Which assets are included?
The initial selection comprises 20 tokenized stocks, ETFs and commodity-linked products. Named examples are NVIDIA, Tesla, Apple, Microsoft and Amazon; the QQQ ETF; and silver- and gold-linked ETFs SLV and IAU. The available reporting does not establish a reliable, complete list of all 20, so these examples should not be treated as the full inventory.

How do funding and execution work?
Users can fund a purchase with supported crypto, including Bitcoin or USDC, from more than 30 connected networks. NEAR Intents handles cross-chain routing and execution through near.com, so users need not manually arrange each swap and bridge to reach the desired asset. The intent-based flow is described as using competing execution providers to fulfill a user’s requested transaction; the cited announcement does not provide enough detail to assess the prices or terms a user will receive.

NEAR describes execution as confidential. That is a feature of the transaction experience, not a promise that eligibility checks disappear or that every aspect of a trade and holding is invisible to all parties.

How large is Ondo Stocks?
At the partnership announcement, Ondo Stocks was reported to have exceeded $1 billion in total value locked and $26 billion in cumulative trading volume. The latter measures trading over time, not the value of assets currently held.

Who can use it—and what do tokenholders own?
The near.com offering is for eligible users in supported jurisdictions; U.S. persons cannot access it under its current restrictions. Ondo’s product documentation says tokenholder rights are governed by its issuer’s terms under Swiss law. It describes a right to redeem tokens for the then-value of underlying assets, but not the voting or information rights of a shareholder in the underlying company. Investors should therefore not assume a token confers the same rights as a share held through a conventional brokerage account.

Ondo’s separate U.S. efforts should not be confused with this integration. Ondo says it has launched a tokenized-securities structure within the existing U.S. regulatory framework that provides shareholder rights, and that its SEC-registered Oasis Pro Markets subsidiary has received FINRA authorizations for U.S. tokenized-securities services. Neither development makes the near.com Ondo Stocks offering available to U.S. persons.
