Currenc Group (Nasdaq:CURR) has partnered with Securitize to tokenize its shares on the Ethereum and Solana blockchains. The company has also partnered with Animoca Brands to bridge on-chain finance and traditional trading infrastructure.
Currenc Group has picked Securitize as one of the top platforms for asset tokenization. The decision closes the circle for a crossover between a Nasdaq-listed company and Web3 projects.
Currenc Group partnered with Animoca Brands in a reverse merger, thus giving the Web3 company exposure to a top-tier stock exchange, after its shares were delisted from the Australian Securities Exchange in 2020. With the new tokenization partnership, Currenc Group also aims to give global access to its on-chain tokens.
Currenc Group combines fintech and cross-border payments, e-wallet infrastructure, and AI analytics tools, adding the Web3 influence of Animoca Brands.
Can Currenc Group revive demand for DAT company shares?
Currec Group and Animoca Brands offer a stock with exposure to over 600 Web3 projects that have survived over multiple crypto seasons. CURR thus represents a digital asset conglomerate, surpassing the exposure of digital asset companies.
CURR tokens may be returned to crypto-native traders, offering them exposure to another Nasdaq-listed asset.
Recently, tokenized equities saw increased trading volumes as interest shifted from crypto tokens to equities. CURR is also riding the trend toward an equity structure rather than issuing native tokens, which have lost their appeal to crypto-native traders.
CURR has the advantage of access to NASDAQ liquidity and to the Animoca Brands portfolio of companies. The fund has made 474 investments, with an average of 4 additional investments in the past few months.
The main obstacle is the unrealized loss on Animoca Brands projects, which stands at 28.1% on average. As a result, CURR traded at around $2.97, down from a peak above $11 before the merger.

CURR shares can be open to DeFi integration
Securitize opens other opportunities for CURR shares. Securitize allows 24/7 trading of its assets, lower settlement costs, fractional ownership, and DeFi integration as collateral.
‘With Currenc, we are continuing to show what issuer-led tokenization can look like when the token represents the real security and the company is actively involved in the process,’ said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize.
Existing CURR owners can also tokenize their shares. CURR will become available for international on-chain trading, with expanded ownership opportunities in crypto lending.
The addition of CURR is also a move toward Securitize’s expansion. The platform has tokenized 21 assets, with a notional value of $3.86B. Ethereum carries 12 of the assets, with three on Solana.
Most of the value tokenized by Securitize, around $2.4B, is U.S. Treasury debt. Tokenized stocks usually belong to crypto companies and projects that went public and were seeking additional representation on crypto markets.
