Dinari unveils tokenized S&P 500 trading for U.S. investors
6.8 Investments Dinari enables eligible U.S. investors to trade tokenized S&P 500 stocks via self-custody wallets using USDC, backed by real shares. The platform operates on multiple blockchains and removes the need for brokerages.
Dinari has launched a platform that allows eligible U.S. investors to trade tokenized shares of all S&P 500 companies and other U.S. equities directly from self-custody wallets using the USDC stablecoin. Each dShare token is fully backed one-to-one by the underlying stock, held with a regulated custodian, ensuring investors retain rights such as dividends and voting. The platform operates across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and Avalanche, with plans to add Solana and Sei. Dinari’s regulatory status as a broker-dealer and transfer agent enables it to offer these services in the U.S., representing a shift from offshore novelty to a regulated domestic product. The company has raised $22.65 million in funding and supports instant settlement and asset transfers. Dinari’s wallet-first approach eliminates the need for traditional brokerages, bridging stablecoin and U.S. equities markets. The platform is available in 85 jurisdictions and supports over 6,000 tokenized assets. Citi projects the tokenized securities market could reach $5.5 trillion by 2030.
