Gate launches Ondo tokenized stock market: supports 26 types of US stocks and ETFs for round-the-clock trading.

On September 3, 2025, the encryption asset trading platform Gate announced the launch of the Ondo section and opened spot trading simultaneously, introducing 26 popular Ondo trading pairs in the first phase, including AAPLON, METAON, TSLAON, NVDAON, SPYON, QQQON, and more.

This initiative provides global users with a convenient and efficient on-chain Ondo trading experience, marking a new stage in the integration of traditional financial assets and the encryption market.

ONDO Market Performance

In the same week that Gate announced the launch of the Ondo section, the price of ONDO performed strongly. As of September 12, 2025, the price of ONDO reached $1.11, with a 7-day increase of 22.39%.

This price increase is attributed to the market's positive response to Ondo Finance's launch of tokenized U.S. stocks, as well as ChatGPT-5 listing Ondo Finance as a preferred recommendation for September 2025.

From a technical analysis perspective, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of ONDO is 60.63, indicating a neutral range and suggesting there is further room for upward movement. The MACD indicator also shows bullish signals, with its histogram at a positive 0.0094.

The price of ONDO has broken through the upper Bollinger Band (1.01 USD), with a %B position of 1.0596, indicating strong momentum. Traders see 1.06 USD as an immediate resistance level, with key support around 0.86 USD.

The New Era of Tokenized Stocks: 100+ Assets on Chain, 24/7 Global Trading

Ondo Finance, as a leader in the RWA (Real World Assets) tokenization sector, holds nearly 40% of the global tokenized securities market share. It has fundamentally changed the way global investors access the US market by bringing traditional financial assets onto the blockchain.

On September 4th, Ondo Global Markets officially launched, providing overseas investors with 24/7 instant access to tokenized US stocks, ETFs, and other securities.

The platform initially supports over 100 tokenized US stocks and ETFs, and plans to expand to over 1,000 by the end of the year, marking the largest issuance of tokenized equity assets in history.

These tokenized stocks are fully collateralized by spot securities held by registered U.S. brokers and cash in transit. Users outside the U.S. can mint, redeem, and transfer instantly 24/7, 365 days a year.

RWA Track Explosion: 380% Growth in Three Years, Institutional Funds Accelerate Inflow

RWA tokenization is moving from niche to mainstream. In the past three years, the RWA market has grown by nearly 380%, reaching a value of $24 billion. Analysts believe that the market could expand to $30 trillion by 2034.

2025 will be a breakthrough year for RWA development. Since January, the entire industry has grown by over 260%, jumping from less than $9 billion to over $23 billion. The main drivers of this growth come from tokenized private credit and U.S. Treasuries.

Institutional funds are rapidly flowing into the RWA sector. The total value locked (TVL) of Ondo Finance has reached a historical high of $1.5 billion for the first time in 24 hours. This figure was only $548 million on January 17, 2025, meaning it has nearly doubled in just 8 months.

International financial centers such as Hong Kong, Singapore, and Dubai are competing to introduce favorable policies to capture this new market worth trillions of dollars. Before the fourth quarter of 2025, Hong Kong will finalize the draft of the "Digital Asset Issuance and Trading Regulations" to provide a more regulated development environment for RWA.

Traditional Institutions Entering the Market: Nasdaq Applies for Listing Tokenized Securities

Traditional financial institutions are actively embracing the trend of tokenization. Nasdaq has submitted an application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch trading of tokenized securities.

If approved, this will become the first securities exchange in the United States to offer tokenized securities trading.

Nasdaq believes that "the wholesale exemption from the national market system and related protections is neither necessary for achieving tokenization goals nor in the best interest of investors." This indicates that traditional exchanges are taking this emerging asset class seriously.

Ondo Finance has also established close collaborations with several Wall Street institutions. Its OUSG fund is the largest investor in Fidelity's new tokenized fund, while also investing in BlackRock's BUIDL fund and other traditional financial companies such as WisdomTree, Franklin Templeton, and Wellington Management.

Investment Opportunities and Risks: The Window Period Before Unlocking Events

For investors, now may be a good time to participate in ONDO. The rapid growth in the RWA sector provides a fundamental support for ONDO. Technical indicators show a bullish trend, with the price expected to test $1.06 and possibly advance towards $1.15.

However, investors also need to be aware of potential risks. The ONDO token unlock event is scheduled to take place every January. The next token unlock event will release nearly 2 billion new ONDO tokens into the market, which could lead to a significant price correction.

Therefore, the period from September 2025 to January 2026 may be a relatively favorable time to trade ONDO, but as the unlocking date approaches, selling pressure may increase.

Future Outlook

The trend of tokenized securities is unstoppable. From Nasdaq submitting applications for listing tokenized securities to Hong Kong planning the draft "Regulations on Digital Asset Issuance and Trading", traditional financial centers are fully embracing this transformation.

In the coming years, as regulations become clearer, technology matures, and user habits evolve, RWA is expected to transition from financial innovation to mainstream application, building a global financial market without time and space constraints.

The collaboration between Gate and Ondo is a key point in this historic transition.
