Jump Crypto invests $100M in Securitize to expand blockchain finance

Jump Crypto announced a strategic equity investment in Securitize on May 8 to enhance institutional access to tokenised real-world assets and improve collateral management solutions.

The partnership aims to address liquidity, risk management, and accessibility challenges in digital asset markets by combining Jump Crypto’s blockchain expertise with Securitize’s tokenisation platform.

Securitize has tokenised over $3.8 billion in securities and provides end-to-end services for asset managers such as BlackRock and Apollo.

Jump Crypto, the blockchain division of Jump Trading Group, brings experience in trading infrastructure and blockchain innovation to the collaboration.

“By working together, we aim to create seamless pathways for investors to access tokenised investment opportunities while maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance,” said Carlos Domingo, CEO of Securitize.

“Jump is focused on being at the forefront of digital asset innovation, and we believe that tokenisation will play a critical role in the evolution of financial markets,” Saurabh Sharma of Jump Crypto added.

The investment comes amid growing demand for tokenised real-world assets as global markets seek scalable and regulated on-chain investment options.

Blockchain technology is noted for its potential to reduce settlement times and increase asset interoperability across platforms.

Securitize plans to use the capital to advance its platform capabilities and explore new use cases within the expanding $500 billion-plus real-world asset tokenisation sector.

The collaboration reflects broader efforts to bridge traditional finance with decentralised systems and attract institutional investors to blockchain-based financial products.
