3 tokenised equities listed for the United States
In ChainChoice’s published ranking order, from this category’s 8 providers: those whose terms exclude the United States are removed; naming the United States or a region that covers it counts the same, and those whose terms do not state it come last. Each chip names the basis: a dated check, a region listing, or the provider's own claim.
#1 for the United StatesSuperstate Opening Bell#1 globallyProvider states broad availability The token is the issuer's own registered share, same CUSIP, recorded by an SEC-registered digital transfer agent (File No. 84-06972) alongside a named recordkeeping transfer agent — but the dividend and proxy mechanics live only in a counterparty's SEC exhibit, splits appear in no binding document, and every one of the five live names is a non-dividend-paying crypto-treasury company, so nothing has been tested.
Share or promise — 10/10Who is on the paper — 9/10#2 for the United StatesSecuritize (tokenized SECZ)#4 globallyLists United States; the United States not individually verified The issuer of the share is also the SEC-registered transfer agent, broker-dealer and ATS that sells it: Tokenized SECZ is Securitize Corp's own NYSE-listed common stock, and the binding S-1 prospectus says in terms that it 'is not a separate share class' — but no Securitize page describes what a dividend, split or vote does to a token, and the company says it does not expect to pay a dividend.
Share or promise — 10/10Who is on the paper — 9/10Us person answer — 8/10#3 for the United StatesDinari dShares#6 globallyLists United States; the United States not individually verified A real NMS share bought by an SEC-registered, FINRA-member broker-dealer (Dinari Securities, LLC, CRD 329672 - register loaded) and held for you - but the binding Terms say title never leaves Dinari, Inc., Dinari is the holder of record, there are no voting rights, and the contract a buyer signs today still lists the UNITED STATES as an Excluded Jurisdiction.

Each cell is from the provider's own pages. ChainChoice does not read the state licence records on NMLS Consumer Access, and of the state registers reads only New York's (NYDFS); a gap shows "—", never an estimate.

Yes. Crypto tokenised equities are regulated in the United States by Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) + Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) + state regulators. Always verify a platform's licensing status with the state licence records on NMLS Consumer Access and, for New York, the NYDFS register before transacting.

Short-term gains (≤1y) taxed at ordinary income rates (10-37%). Long-term gains (>1y) taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20% depending on income. IRS Form 1099-DA reporting from 2026. Editorial summary, not tax advice: consult a qualified tax advisor in the United States before filing.
What payment methods work for buying crypto in the United States?
The most common rails for retail onramps in the United States are: ACH, Wire, Debit Card, Apple Pay.
Are international platforms (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance) available in the United States?
Availability varies by platform and product. The United States has its own licensing regime under state money-transmitter licences and, in New York, a BitLicense or trust charter from NYDFS, and not every global platform is registered. The shortlist above removes platforms whose terms exclude the United States; the chip on each row says whether availability is verified, listed or unstated.
