Key points

  • Securitize integrated the Stellar blockchain alongside existing networks Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche.
  • Stellar features built-in compliance tooling for know-your-customer controls, sanctions screening, and asset clawbacks.
  • The network hosts Franklin Templeton's tokenized money market fund and ranks as the fourth-largest tokenized RWA ecosystem.

Asset tokenization platform Securitize expanded its infrastructure support to the Stellar network, announcing the integration at the Stellar Development Foundation's Meridian 2026 conference in Lisbon on Oct. 28 1.

The integration brings Stellar alongside Securitize's existing multi-chain roster, which includes Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche 1. Securitize stated that Stellar provides speed and scalability paired with configurable compliance features such as customer identification (KYC), asset clawbacks, and sanctions screening 1. Securitize Chief Executive Carlos Domingo noted that Stellar has developed the fourth-largest ecosystem for tokenized real-world assets 1. Stellar already hosts institutional products, including a tokenized money market fund operated by Franklin Templeton, alongside cross-border payment operations from MoneyGram 1.

Broadening Institutional Asset Rails

The move arrives amid rising demand for tokenized debt, equities, and funds traded across 24/7 global markets 1. Securitize manages the issuance of BlackRock's BUIDL tokenized money-market fund and previously introduced tokenized U.S. equities, having executed a rollout of 1:1 tokenized U.S. stocks on Solana 1.

Stellar's native token $XLM traded up 2.4% over 24 hours at $0.1715 at the time of writing. By tapping Stellar's tailored architecture, Securitize broadens the regulatory controls available for issuers seeking automated settlement without bypassing established compliance mandates 1.
