BlackRock’s work with Ondo Finance is drawing attention to a shift from tokenized single assets toward tokenized investment strategies. The approach could make portfolios more transferable, programmable and adaptable as blockchain-based market infrastructure develops.

NEAR has broken above a long running inverse head and shoulders neckline near $3.15, drawing attention to a measured move target around $12.04. The breakout is being supported by rising weekly volume, reclaimed long term moving averages, and the debut of Bitwise’s NEAR ETF on NYSE Arca.

Ondo Finance was pitched to prospective buyers after founder and CEO Nathan Allman died, people familiar with the matter said, though the company denies any sale effort. A legal battle over corporate control has likely stalled any potential transaction while the tokenization firm continues operating under court-imposed limits.

The SEC’s new five-year exemption creates a clearer route for tokenized U.S. stocks that preserve full shareholder rights, while leaving synthetic stock tokens outside the framework.

Japan’s SBI Group has acquired a majority stake in Singapore based crypto platform Coinhako, advancing a broader plan to link digital asset markets across Asia. The move sits alongside partnerships with Ondo Finance and the Solana Foundation as SBI expands into tokenization, stablecoins and blockchain settlement infrastructure.

Grayscale Chief Financial Officer Edward McGee has resigned after seven years at the crypto asset manager, with Kathryn Masci and Daniel Plourde named interim co-chief financial officers.
