Decision guide
What matters most before choosing in this category
The best tokenised equity depends on what you actually own and against whom. A registered fund share, a feeder interest and an SPV note are not equivalent, and a branded manager's name on the wrapper is not evidence that the manager stands behind it. Fees are scored relatively rather than absolutely — the question is what the same strategy costs untokenised, and a tokenised share class charging materially more than the identical manager's own ETF is the finding rather than a footnote.
Key question
Does this token convey a claim on a real share held in custody, or is it a synthetic tracker?
Key question
Can you exit at the share's value, and are dividends and corporate actions passed through?
Key question
Is there a redemption path at NAV, or only a secondary market at whatever it will bear?

Dinari dShares
SEC-registered transfer agent; 724 tokenized stocks, now open to US investors
Data checked Aug 2026
SEC-registered transfer agent; 724 tokenized stocks, now open to US investors. Strongest on who may legally buy and hold (9/10): On 4 August 2026 Dinari launched 724 tokenized US stocks — including every S&P 500 constituent — to eligible US investors via USDC on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base and Avalanche, with Circle, Privy, Para and Monaco as partners. Also live in 85+ non-US jurisdictions. Canada is unsupported pending licensing; roughly 30… Weakest on all-in cost, and whether it is published (6/10): Disclosure is the best in the category — a full fee table broken out by network and settlement stablecoin. The level is not: a $500 buy on Ethereum with USDC costs $1 + 0.50% = 0.70%, and every dividend is docked 5% before distribution. That dividend haircut has no equivalent at any conventional broker; on a 2%… Published price: Per-order issuance fee: Ethereum + USD+ = "$1 + 0.25%"; Ethereum + USDC/USDT = "$1 + 0.50%"; L2 + USD+ = "$0.20 + 0.25%"; L2 + USDC/USDT/USDB = "$0.20 + 0.50%".

Main tradeoff
Dinari's own compliance page at docs.dinari.com/docs/restrictions.md still read, on 5 Aug 2026, that dShares "may not be offered or sold in the United States or to a U.S. person, absent registration or an applicable exemption" — one day after the company announced US availability. Until that page is reconciled, a US buyer is relying on a press release over the binding restrictions document. Separately, Dinari and Ondo both depend on Alpaca Markets as the executing broker.

Superstate Opening Bell
Transfer-agent-recorded registered shares issued natively onchain; issuer opt-in only
Transfer-agent-recorded registered shares issued natively onchain; issuer opt-in only. Strongest on what the token is a claim on (10/10): The page states without hedging: "Tokenized shares are not derivatives, wrappers, or new share classes." Superstate acts as transfer agent, recording ownership changes onchain in real time, so the token is the registered share on the issuer's books. Live names include Forward Industries (FWDI), Exodus (EXOD), Solana… Weakest on all-in cost, and whether it is published (3/10): "A fixed, predictable administrative fee" is exactly the unquantified formulation this criterion penalises — no rate, no basis, and no investor-facing cost disclosure at all. The docs subdomain also failed to return the tokenized-equities page on request. Published price: Issuers pay "a fixed, predictable administrative fee" for Direct Issuance Programs; no rate is published and no investor-side fee schedule is given.

Securitize
SEC-registered transfer agent, broker-dealer and ATS; tokenized its own NYSE stock
SEC-registered transfer agent, broker-dealer and ATS; tokenized its own NYSE stock. Strongest on what the token is a claim on (9/10): Tokenized SECZ is "the same common stock trading on the NYSE, not a separate share class" — issuer-sponsored, recorded by Securitize Transfer Agent, LLC (SEC-registered), launched on Avalanche and Solana on 2 July 2026 alongside the NYSE listing. Securitize is the only vertically integrated provider with… Weakest on all-in cost, and whether it is published (2/10): No investor fee schedule is published on any Securitize page reachable programmatically — securitize.io/markets returns HTTP 404 and the SECZ tokenization release states no fees. A buyer cannot determine the cost of transacting before onboarding. Published price: not published — the 2 July 2026 tokenized-SECZ announcement contains no investor fee information, and securitize.io/markets returns HTTP 404.

Frequently asked
Questions people ask before choosing tokenised equities
What do I actually own when I hold a tokenised equity?
Tokenised equities make sense when you want stock exposure onchain and can accept the wrapper's terms. What they do not automatically give you is share ownership: several products here are derivative exposure carrying a stock's name.
Why is eligibility weighted so heavily?
Because most of this market excludes US persons entirely, and the compliance page is read as published rather than as summarised by the venue selling the token. One issuer's own restrictions document still stated the shares may not be offered to US persons when it was checked on 5 August 2026.
What matters most when choosing a tokenised equity?
What the token is a claim on, and whether you may legally hold it — 60% of the weight between them. The same product being described as 1:1 backed in one place and as derivative exposure in another is the finding, not a footnote.
