MetaMask, a self-custodial crypto wallet developed by Consensys, has added support for tokenized U.S. stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and commodities through an integration with Ondo Finance, the companies said on Tuesday, Feb. 3, in a press release shared with The Defiant.
The update lets eligible users of MetaMask’s mobile app in supported non-U.S. jurisdictions buy, hold, and trade more than 200 tokenized U.S. securities via Ondo Global Markets, Ondo’s tokenized real-world assets (RWA) platform, which launched in October 2025. The assets can be accessed directly inside MetaMask’s self-custodial wallet, without requiring a separate trading platform or traditional brokerage account.
The integration comes as interest in tokenized RWAs continues to grow, with large institutions increasingly offering tokenized versions of traditional financial products. The tokenized RWA market currently exceeds $23 billion globally, up about 13% over the past month, according to data from RWAxyz.
Tokenized commodities, like gold and silver, in particular are expanding rapidly, with RWAxyz data showing that market at roughly $4.56 billion, up more than 28% over the past month.
“Access to U.S. markets still runs through legacy rails. Brokerage accounts, fragmented apps, and rigid trading windows haven’t meaningfully evolved,” said Joe Lubin, Founder and CEO of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum.
“Bringing Ondo’s tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly into MetaMask shows what a better model looks like.”
Users can access the assets by purchasing Ondo Global Markets tokens (known as GM tokens) through MetaMask Swaps. The GM tokens, which can be purchased using USDC on Ethereum mainnet, are designed to track the market value of their underlying assets, according to the press release.
Moreover, trading is available 24 hours a day, five days a week, from Sunday evening through Friday evening, and tokens can be transferred at any time.
Ondo, whose total value locked (TVL) more than doubled since last March to reach $2.7 billion by press time, is one of several firms that has recently jumped into the tokenized stock game. Other large players include crypto exchange Kraken, which at first partnered with Backed in May to launch its tokenized stock product, xStocks, before acquiring the firm in December.
Ondo’s native token ONDO is currently trading at $0.28, up about 1.3% on the day, according to CoinGecko.
