MetaMask and Ondo Set To Tokenize Securities, ONDO Price?

4 min read

Ondo Finance announced a major integration with MetaMask to bring tokenized US stocks and ETFs directly into the popular self-custodial wallet.

Yet the ONDO token barely moved on the news, continuing a month-long decline that has seen it lose over a third of its value.

MetaMask and Ondo Finance unveiled their integration at the Ondo Global Summit on February 3. The partnership brings more than 200 tokenized US securities to the MetaMask mobile wallet through Ondo Global Markets.

Users in supported jurisdictions can now buy, hold, and trade tokenized versions of major stocks, including Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon. The offering also includes ETFs such as SLV for silver exposure, IAU for gold, and QQQ for tech stocks.

The integration works through MetaMask Swaps on the Ethereum mainnet. Users acquire Ondo Global Markets tokens using USDC, with trading available 24 hours a day, five days a week. Token transfers remain possible around the clock.

Ian De Bode, President at Ondo Finance, emphasized the strategic value of reaching MetaMask’s user base. He noted that the integration brings pricing comparable to traditional brokerages like Robinhood into a self-custodial, on-chain environment.

Geographic Restrictions Limit Impact

Despite the headline-grabbing announcement, a closer look reveals significant limitations. The list of excluded jurisdictions reads like a directory of the world’s major financial markets.

Users in the United States, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Canada, China (including Hong Kong), Singapore, Japan, Korea, and Brazil cannot access the service. The exclusions effectively limit availability to less-regulated emerging markets.

This geographic constraint likely explains the muted market reaction. The integration represents a technical milestone, but the addressable market remains small.

ONDO Token Shrugs Off the News

The ONDO token traded at $0.2811 at the time of publication, down 37.3% over the past month. The 24-hour price change showed a modest 0.2% decline, suggesting the market viewed the integration as a non-event for token value.

Looking at the monthly chart, ONDO has been in a steady decline from around $0.45 in early January to its current level near $0.28. The MetaMask news failed to reverse or even pause this downtrend.

Market data shows ONDO with a market cap of $1.37 billion and total value locked exceeding $2 billion. The disconnect between protocol metrics and token performance reflects a broader pattern in the real-world asset sector.

RWA Tokens Struggle Despite Sector Growth

Ondo’s price action fits a well-documented trend across RWA governance tokens. According to CoinGecko’s 2025 RWA Report, most tokens in the sector posted negative returns between January 2024 and April 2025, ranging from -26% to -79%.

The report attributes this disconnect to structural factors. During bull markets, DeFi lending protocols offer alternative yield opportunities without requiring RWA exposure. Meanwhile, capital flows primarily into institutional products like BlackRock’s BUIDL fund and stablecoin infrastructure rather than governance tokens.

Tokenized treasuries grew 544% to $5.6 billion in market cap, with BlackRock’s BUIDL capturing 44% market share. Private credit protocols like Maple Finance dominate, accounting for 67% of active loans. Yet these successes rarely translate into token-holder returns.

The pattern suggests RWA governance tokens function more as speculative instruments than as direct claims on protocol growth.

What Comes Next

The MetaMask integration positions Ondo for growth if regulatory environments evolve. The infrastructure now exists for seamless trading of tokenized securities within a major self-custodial wallet.

Until key markets open up, the practical impact remains constrained. For ONDO holders, the announcement serves as another reminder that protocol milestones and token performance often diverge in the RWA sector.

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Forward Industries, the largest publicly traded Solana treasury company, has filed a $4 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program with the U.S. SEC  to raise more capital for additional SOL accumulation. Forward Strategies Doubles Down On Solana Strategy In a Wednesday press release, Forward Industries revealed that the 4 billion ATM equity offering program will allow the company to issue and sell common stock via Cantor Fitzgerald under a sales agreement dated Sept. 16, 2025. Forward said proceeds will go toward “general corporate purposes,” including the pursuit of its Solana balance sheet and purchases of income-generating assets. The sales of the shares are covered by an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that is already effective – meaning the shares will be tradable once they’re sold. An automatic shelf registration allows certain publicly listed companies to raise capital with flexibility swiftly.  Kyle Samani, Forward’s chairman, astutely described the ATM offering as “a flexible and efficient mechanism” to raise and deploy capital for the company’s Solana strategy and bolster its balance sheet.  Advertisement &nbsp Though the maximum amount is listed as $4 billion, the firm indicated that sales may or may not occur depending on existing market conditions. “The ATM Program enhances our ability to continue scaling that position, strengthen our balance sheet, and pursue growth initiatives in alignment with our long-term vision,” Samani said. Forward Industries kicked off its Solana treasury strategy on Sept. 8. The Wednesday S-3 form follows Forward’s $1.65 billion private investment in public equity that closed last week, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital. The company started deploying that capital this week, announcing it snatched up 6.8 million SOL for approximately $1.58 billion at an average price of $232…
