ZIGChain integrates Ondo tokenized stocks and ETFs to expand onchain access to global financial markets

ZIGChain announces an integration with Ondo Finance to bring Ondo’s tokenized stocks and ETFs to users across ZIGChain’s ecosystem

DUBAI, June 8th, 2026 — ZIGChain, the blockchain built to bring investment products onchain for institutions and everyday users, today announced an integration with Ondo Finance, which pioneered the tokenization of institutional-grade real-world assets, to bring Ondo tokenized stocks & ETFs to ZIGChain, extending their shared vision of accessible onchain exposure to publicly traded US securities to a new generation of users through ZIGChain. 

Ondo Finance has done something genuinely difficult: taking securities and making them available as programmable, onchain products. That breakthrough matters most when it reaches the widest possible audience. ZIGChain provides infrastructure through which that reach expands by bringing Ondo-tokenized products to users across the GCC and beyond on the ZIGChain ecosystem. 

For ZIGChain, this integration is a direct expression of its founding mission. Not to build new financial products for those who already have access, but to take the best existing ones — the instruments that generate real, reliable yield — and make them available onchain, to anyone. 

“The next phase of onchain finance is not about replicating access that institutions already have. It is about taking those instruments and making them genuinely accessible to a broader universe of participants, through transparent, scalable onchain infrastructure, without the minimums and intermediaries that have always stood in the way,” said Abdul Rafay Gadit, Co-Founder, ZIGChain. “Ondo has done the hard work of bringing these products onchain. ZIGChain is the infrastructure through which that reaches a new generation of users. For us, this is deeply aligned with our mission: to make high-quality financial opportunities more open, more programmable, and more globally accessible.” 

“Bringing tokenized US stocks and ETFs to new ecosystems and user bases is core to what the Ondo Global Markets platform enables. ZIGChain’s infrastructure gives investors across the GCC onchain exposure to the world’s most in-demand securities, with the execution quality and transparency that institutional markets demand. This is exactly the kind of distribution that expands the reach of tokenized finance where it matters most” said Oya Celiktemur, EMEA Director, Ondo Finance.

Access to Ondo-tokenized products through ZIGChain will roll out in phases beginning at the end of May, with initial availability across selected ecosystem applications and partners, expanding over time. 

The integration does not constitute a token launch or guarantee of yield or returns. Underlying assets are issued by Ondo Global Markets (BVI) Limited. ZIGChain does not custody underlying real-world assets. All investments carry risk.
