The Securitize NYSE listing is set to raise approximately $400 million in gross proceeds through its SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II, with shareholders scheduled to vote on the deal Monday and the transaction expected to close 1 July.
Fewer than 30% of Cantor Equity Partners II shareholders opted to redeem ahead of the deadline, leaving the trust capital largely intact. If the vote passes and remaining closing conditions are satisfied, the combined company begins trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SECZ on 2 July.
PIPE Oversubscribed, Advisors Named
The $400 million gross figure includes a $225 million PIPE component structured as 22,500,000 Cantor Equity Partners II Class A shares at $10.00 per share. Markets Media reports that Citigroup is acting as financial and capital markets adviser to Securitize on the transaction, while Cantor Fitzgerald advises Cantor Equity Partners II.
The Defiant described the PIPE as oversubscribed and the largest for any operating business entering via a SPAC since 2021. Shares of Cantor Equity Partners II closed 7% higher at $10.86 on Friday before extending gains to $11 in after-hours trading.
If the deal closes as planned, Securitize would become the first pure-play tokenisation company to list on a major US stock exchange. The firm operates as a FINRA-approved broker-dealer with custody approval for tokenised securities, a regulatory posture that distinguishes it from most tokenisation infrastructure providers.
Co-founder and CEO Carlos Domingo framed the listing as a structural shift, not just a capital event: ‘Reaching the public markets is a significant milestone for Securitize and a reflection of the growing momentum behind tokenisation.’
Platform Expansion Running Ahead of the Securitize NYSE Listing
Securitize currently provides tokenisation infrastructure for more than 650 funds and oversees more than $4 billion in tokenised assets. BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, which runs on Securitize infrastructure, has expanded to roughly $2.3 billion in assets; BlackRock subsequently filed a second Securitize-powered tokenised fund with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The company has also extended its Tokenised AAA CLO Fund (STAC) to the Solana blockchain, with Ethena Labs committing $250 million to the fund. BNY serves as custodian of the underlying assets and sub-adviser through BNY Investments.
A Rule 425 filing by Securitize Holdings with the SEC also disclosed an agreement with Computershare to enable tokenised shares for US issuers, creating a new pathway for US-listed clients to bring their equity securities on-chain. Earlier this year, Securitize partnered with the New York Stock Exchange itself to support the exchange’s planned tokenised securities platform.
Patent Dispute Clouds the Debut
Securitize is heading into its listing with active litigation overhead. After receiving a cease-and-desist letter from tZERO, Securitize filed a complaint for Declaratory Judgment of Non-Infringement on 22 June 2026 (case 1:26-cv-00722) in the US District Court for the District of Delaware, according to PACER Monitor.
The patents in question are US Patent Nos. 11,216,802 and 11,394,560, covering self-enforcing security tokens and crypto integration infrastructure. The Block reported that tZERO had demanded Securitize cease commercialising its DS Protocol and Vault Registrar products by 18 June or face injunctive relief and monetary damages.
Securitize called the allegations ‘without merit.’ tZERO says its claims cover compliance systems, investor registry checks, and tokenised market infrastructure. The declaratory judgment route keeps Securitize on offence rather than waiting for tZERO to file first, though the dispute adds headline risk ahead of the SECZ debut.
Standard Chartered has projected that tokenised assets used in decentralised finance could reach $2.7 trillion by the end of 2030. The DEFM14A proxy filing contains the full deal mechanics for shareholders voting Monday; the outcome of that vote is the binary event SECZ is trading against.
