Securitize adds Stellar to its supported blockchain roster for tokenised assets

Securitize, the tokenisation platform best known for managing BlackRock‘s BUIDL money-market fund, has extended its multi-chain infrastructure to include Stellar, bringing the network alongside its existing Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche integrations. The agreement was announced at Meridian 2026, the Stellar Development Foundation’s annual conference held in Lisbon.

Stellar’s appeal for institutional issuers rests on its compliance configurability: assets deployed on the network can incorporate know-your-customer controls, clawback mechanisms, and sanctions screening at the protocol level. Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo cited Stellar’s standing as the fourth-largest ecosystem for tokenised real-world assets as evidence of both network maturity and institutional appetite. Franklin Templeton already runs a tokenised money-market fund on Stellar, and MoneyGram processes daily cross-border flows across it, giving the chain a meaningful live-transaction track record before Securitize’s arrival.

Securitize itself went public on the New York Stock Exchange in July, simultaneously listing its own shares as tokens on Solana and Avalanche. Its shares closed at $8.16 on Tuesday after reaching $13.70 on debut. The Stellar addition reflects a broader pattern in which issuance platforms treat multi-chain reach as a competitive necessity rather than a technical experiment, as asset managers and corporates increasingly ask which chain their counterparties and end-investors actually use. Issuers evaluating Securitize’s platform will now have Stellar as a distribution option, a chain with demonstrated payment-rail usage and an existing institutional fund cohort.
