BlackRock tokenization partner Securitize gets SEC approval for SPAC merger, paving way for NYSE listing and a $1 bn stablecoin liquidity facility for its
BlackRock‑backed tokenization firm Securitize received SEC clearance for its SPAC merger filing, moving the company toward a NYSE debut under the ticker “SECZ” and coinciding with a new $1 billion daily stablecoin liquidity facility that will power instant redemptions for its BUIDL money‑market fund [1][2].

| SEC filing status | Effective registration statement |
| Merger vote | June 29, 2026 |
| Target ticker | SECZ (NYSE) |
| Liquidity facility | Up to $1 bn daily stablecoin liquidity |
| Tokenized Treasury market | $15 bn assets, +130% YoY |
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission declared Securitize’s registration statement for its combination with Cantor Equity Partners II effective, clearing the last regulatory obstacle before a shareholder vote on June 29 [1]. If approved, the SPAC deal will close shortly thereafter, and the combined entity will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange as “SECZ.” The approval arrives as other crypto firms have paused public‑market ambitions amid volatile conditions, highlighting Securitize’s unique position as a leading infrastructure provider for tokenized assets.
In parallel, a consortium led by Grove launched a “Basin” liquidity network that commits up to $1 bn of daily stablecoin liquidity for instant redemptions from BlackRock’s $2.2 bn BUIDL fund and Janus Henderson’s $1.1 bn Treasury fund [2]. The facility addresses the primary friction in the $15 bn tokenized Treasury market—settlement delays—by advancing stablecoin payouts while traditional settlement processes continue. Participants include Securitize, Centrifuge, Anchorage Digital, Galaxy Digital and FalconX, underscoring broad industry support for faster on‑chain fund exits.
The tokenized asset market itself has surged, nearly tripling to over $30 bn in the past year, according to RWA.xyz data [1]. Citi projects tokenized assets could reach $5.5 tn by 2030, while a Boston Consulting Group‑Ripple report forecasts $18.9 tn by 2033 [1]. These macro trends reinforce the strategic relevance of Securitize’s infrastructure and the new liquidity bridge.
Securitize’s regulatory clearance and the Basin liquidity network together signal a maturing tokenized finance ecosystem, where faster settlement and public‑market visibility could accelerate institutional participation. The coming weeks will reveal whether the firm can translate these milestones into sustained market traction.
