FG Nexus (Nasdaq: FGNX, FGNXP) said it entered an agreement with Securitize to let investors elect onchain versions of the company’s common shares, with tokenized shares carrying the same rights as their old-school twins.
The company will also move to tokenize its dividend-paying, exchange-listed perpetual preferred stock (FGNXP), aiming to bring recurring cash flows onchain. FG Nexus CEO Kyle Cerminara pitched the plan as a bid to put the firm “at the forefront of financial innovation,” while keeping the focus on benefits for holders.
Translation: less paper, more programmable ownership. The initial rollout targets common stock, then preferred shares, making FG Nexus among the first Nasdaq-listed issuers to offer native tokenization instead of a wrapper.
Securitize will supply the rails with its regulated stack—broker-dealer, alternative trading system, and transfer agent—intended to ensure the tokens represent real, legally recognized equity and can trade onchain subject to existing transfer restrictions.
Co-founder and CEO of Securitize, Carlos Domingo, called it public markets entering the “programmable age,” touting instant settlement and automated compliance. If executed as described, investors could custody stock tokens, not derivatives, in wallets, while still living under the same rulebook as traditional shares.
That mix of compliance and click-to-settle is the pitch: speed where it helps, guardrails where it counts. Digital Assets head Maja Vujinovic said tokenization is about efficiency and access and flagged the shareholder experience as the star.
Beyond novelty, the onchain preferred play matters: dividends and corporate actions can be encoded, tracked, and delivered programmatically, reducing back-office friction. None of this promises price alchemy, but it does promise fewer frictions and faster pipes. For markets tired of settlement drag, that’s a pitch—paper meets protocol.
While FG Nexus is busy strutting onto Ethereum, Galaxy’s already flexing with tokenized stock on Solana. Different chains, same storyline: Wall Street’s starched collars are trying on onchain hoodies. Whether you like your shares served with Ethereum gas fees or Solana’s discount express lane, the punchline is clear—public equities are done flirting with blockchain. They’re moving in.
