TL;DR

  • Tokenized access: MetaMask now offers more than 200 tokenized US stocks, ETFs, and commodities through Ondo Global Markets for eligible non-US users.
  • Unified experience: The integration expands MetaMask’s role by enabling users to manage crypto and tokenized traditional assets in one self-custodial wallet with 24/5 trading and 24/7 transfers.
  • Jurisdiction limits: The launch is live on MetaMask Mobile but excludes regions such as the US, Canada, the EEA, China, the UK, Switzerland, Russia, and others due to regulatory restrictions.

MetaMask and Ondo Finance have launched a new integration that brings tokenized US stocks, ETFs, and commodities directly into the MetaMask mobile wallet for eligible users outside the US. The move gives non-US investors access to more than 200 tokenized securities, including major names like Tesla, Apple, and Microsoft, as well as popular ETFs such as SLV, IAU, and QQQ, all without opening a traditional brokerage account.

A Milestone for Tokenized Market Access

Unveiled at the Ondo Global Summit, the integration marks one of the earliest examples of native access to tokenized US equities and ETFs inside a major self-custodial wallet. It reflects a broader shift in financial infrastructure as tokenization moves from early experimentation toward wider distribution. With global tokenized real-world assets surpassing $22 billion, MetaMask’s adoption signals growing demand for blockchain-based exposure to traditional markets.

For MetaMask, the launch extends its function beyond crypto asset management by offering a unified interface for both decentralized and traditional financial exposure. Consensys Founder and CEO Joe Lubin said current access to US markets still relies on legacy systems, and integrating Ondo’s tokenized assets demonstrates a more flexible model. He emphasized the value of a single self-custodial wallet where users can move between asset classes without intermediaries or losing control.
