Empowering Global Investors: Your Gateway to Decentralized Finance
Revolutionizing Asset Access: Tokenized Stocks and ETFs Arrive
On September 3, 2025, Trust Wallet, a preeminent Web3 self-custody wallet serving over 200 million users, unveiled a significant expansion of its services: the introduction of tokenized real-world assets. This allows users globally to seamlessly access tokenized equivalents of U.S. equities and exchange-traded funds. Now, individuals can explore, manage, and exchange these digital assets, which mirror the market values of prominent stocks and major U.S. ETFs. These digital representations are underpinned by smart contracts and are structured to precisely track the price movements of their underlying conventional assets.
Bridging Traditional Finance and Blockchain: A New Era of Accessibility
This groundbreaking initiative means that anyone with a smartphone can now gain exposure to well-known stocks and ETFs directly through Trust Wallet, circumventing the need for traditional banking institutions, brokerage firms, or intermediaries. This represents a monumental leap towards a universally inclusive financial future, where participation in global markets is not a privilege, but a fundamental right. Trust Wallet's CEO, Eowyn Chen, emphasized the importance of integrating RWAs into self-custodial wallets, stating it's a crucial step towards making global finance more open and efficient, and fundamentally democratizing access to financial markets.
Unlocking Financial Frontiers: Global Access to Iconic Assets
Millions worldwide have been historically excluded from conventional financial systems due to various barriers. However, with Trust Wallet, this landscape is rapidly changing. With just a few taps, users can now convert stablecoins, such as USDC, into tokenized versions of major company stocks like TSLA, QQQ, or AAPL, instantly and directly on the blockchain. These tokenized RWAs are powered by smart contracts and issued by reputable third-party partners like Ondo Finance, ensuring that the tokens transparently and accountably reflect the price of the underlying asset. Trust Wallet has also integrated the 1inch Swap API to provide a seamless and secure experience for RWA transactions. Nathan Allman, Founder and CEO of Ondo Finance, highlighted that this innovation mirrors the way stablecoins brought the U.S. dollar on-chain, now doing the same for U.S. securities.
Pioneering the Future: Trust Wallet's Visionary Path
With this launch, Trust Wallet distinguishes itself as the premier self-custody wallet to offer cross-chain access to Tokenized RWAs, initially supporting Ethereum, with plans for expanding to additional providers and networks. This development propels Trust Wallet closer to its ambitious goal of becoming the leading Web3 neo-bank, enabling individuals globally to utilize comprehensive financial tools, from decentralized finance (DeFi) to RWAs, without relinquishing control over their assets. Trust Wallet aspires to be the all-encompassing self-custodial platform, offering services ranging from exposure to tokenized assets to staking, swaps, on-chain identity management, and more.
Building the Financial Infrastructure for a Connected World
Trust Wallet's strategic entry into the RWA sector signifies a broader transformation: empowering everyday individuals with opportunities once exclusive to a select few. This is more than a mere product enhancement; it's a stride towards establishing a financial system that benefits everyone, everywhere. As Chen aptly noted, providing ubiquitous access to financial tools, regardless of geographical location, intermediary involvement, or systemic complexities, profoundly redefines what is achievable, not just for the cryptocurrency ecosystem, but for humanity at large.
