Ondo Finance has acquired Oasis Pro, a move that transfers a comprehensive suite of SEC and FINRA licenses. This grants the blockchain technology company the in-house capability to build and operate a fully regulated market for tokenized securities.

Summary

Ondo Finance acquired Oasis Pro, gaining SEC and FINRA licenses to operate regulated U.S. markets for tokenized securities.
The deal brings broker-dealer, ATS, and transfer agent registrations under Ondo, expanding its reach in real-world asset tokenization.
Oasis Pro’s infrastructure enables settlement in fiat and stablecoins, strengthening Ondo’s ability to bridge traditional and digital finance.

According to an announcement on Oct. 6, Ondo Finance finalized its acquisition of Oasis Pro, a U.S.-based digital asset broker-dealer and operator of an alternative trading system. The deal brings broker-dealer, ATS, and transfer agent registrations under Ondo’s umbrella, giving the firm one of the most complete regulatory setups in the tokenization space.

Notably, the integration marks a strategic step for Ondo, which has been expanding its footprint in real-world asset markets since launching its tokenized U.S. Treasury products earlier this year.

Expansion into regulated tokenization

Oasis Pro is an established entity with a multi-year track record. Founded in 2019, its subsidiary, Oasis Pro Markets, is a FINRA-member broker-dealer that operates a multi-asset Alternative Trading System.

This ATS is one of the few in the U.S. already authorized to settle transactions in both fiat currency and stablecoins , a critical technical capability for bridging traditional and digital finance. Additionally, Oasis Pro has been an active participant in shaping the regulatory conversation, serving on FINRA’s Crypto Working Group.

For Ondo Finance, the acquisition unlocks a rare regulatory pathway. The company will now be able to build and operate fully regulated marketplaces for tokenized financial products, expanding its reach beyond institutional-grade Treasury offerings into broader capital market functions.

This includes private placements, underwriting, and secondary market trading across a diverse range of tokenized and traditional assets, from equities and corporate debt to structured products and REITs.

“We now have the most comprehensive suite of licenses and infrastructure necessary to develop compliant and regulated tokenized securities markets in the U.S. This acquisition makes Ondo’s offering one of the strongest commitments to building a transparent, accessible, and compliant financial system onchain,” Ondo Finance CEO Nathan Allman said.

The acquisition is built upon a foundation of demonstrated product-market fit. Ondo arrives at this deal with over $1.6 billion in assets under management across its flagship tokenized offerings, according to the announcement.

1. U.S. equities gained over the week, while crypto assets declined, reflecting a divergence in risk appetite. From October 3 to 9, the S&P 500 rose 1.15% and the Nasdaq 100 gained 0.24%, while BTC, ETH, and SOL fell 2.31%, 6.84%, and 7.99%, respectively. The U.S. Dollar Index advanced 0.27%, and although the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield declined 3.3 basis points, it remained elevated at 5.244%. High funding costs therefore continued to weigh on risk asset valuations. 2. Weak employment data have not eliminated inflation concerns, while AI and on-chain finance face growing scrutiny over commercial viability. September nonfarm payrolls increased by just 29,000, yet the minutes of the Federal Reserve's September meeting still pointed to the possibility of further rate hikes before year-end. This week's CPI release and major bank earnings will provide important tests of growth and inflation pressures. Revenue recognition and reporting practices in AI, underlying asset rights in RWA, and operating costs for Layer 2 networks are also becoming increasingly important measures of commercial viability. 3. Bitget has completed its phased service restoration, while the Bitget Alliance Program continues to support clients' trading and capital management needs. We completed the planned restoration on October 2 and replenished the Protection Fund to more than $300 million on September 30. According to DefiLlama, assets tracked on the platform rebounded from approximately $5.647 billion on October 1 to $6.223 billion on October 11. This report also outlines VIP level protection, user rewards, and institutional fee incentives to help high-value clients plan their trading activities according to their account type. Assets to watch: BTC, ETH, SOL, SUI, PUMP, gold, JPM, BAC, and ASML. Key areas of focus this week: The October 14 U.S. CPI release; bank net interest income and credit costs; AI cash flow generation; and post-recovery trends in assets held on Bitget, settlement efficiency, and trading conditions. Market data are current through October 9 or the latest local trading day. Official announcements and promotion terms were reviewed through October 12.
