Securitize Reports 841% Revenue Surge as Tokenization Demand Accelerates

Securitize reported revenue of $55.6 million for the first nine months of 2025, an 841% increase from the same period in 2024, as the asset tokenization firm moves toward a public listing through a SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II.

The company filed a public registration statement with the SEC on Wednesday, advancing plans to merge with the Cantor Fitzgerald-backed blank check company. Full-year 2024 revenue reached $18.8 million, more than double the prior year, according to the filing reported by CoinDesk on Thursday.

Securitize provides infrastructure to convert traditional assets including U.S. Treasuries, funds and equities into blockchain-based tokens that can be issued, traded and managed more efficiently than conventional securities. The platform handles compliance, transfer agent services and secondary trading for tokenized securities.

The company's revenue trajectory suggests growing enterprise demand for blockchain-based securities platforms as traditional finance pursues digital transformation.

The merger requires shareholder and regulatory approval. If cleared, Securitize would trade on Nasdaq under the ticker SECZ, becoming one of the first pure-play tokenization companies to go public.

The tokenization sector has attracted significant institutional capital as traditional finance recognizes blockchain's potential to modernize market infrastructure. Financial institutions face pressure to adopt the technology as competitors build capabilities and regulators establish clearer frameworks.

The filing comes as tokenization gains momentum across traditional finance. Major institutions including JP Morgan and BlackRock have integrated tokenized assets into their offerings as blockchain-based settlement infrastructure promises faster execution, lower costs and 24/7 market access.

Recent developments show that things are moving quickly. The New York Stock Exchange announced earlier this month it is developing a platform for round-the-clock trading of tokenized securities with instant settlement, pending regulatory approval. The SEC released guidance Tuesday clarifying how federal securities laws apply to tokenized instruments, providing a framework for issuer-sponsored and third-party tokenization models.

Ondo Finance has emerged as the largest tokenized securities platform by total value locked, with approximately $466 million in assets and over $6.4 billion in cumulative trading volume. The platform tokenized BitGo stock within hours of the custody firm's NYSE debut last week, demonstrating near-real-time tokenization capabilities.

Beyond equities, tokenization is expanding across asset classes. Hang Seng Investment Management launched a physical gold ETF in Hong Kong this week offering both traditional shares and tokenized units on Ethereum. Franklin Templeton has operated tokenized money market funds since 2021, while several banks have piloted tokenized deposits for settlement efficiency.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
