Ondo Finance is shaking up the market once more. Over the past year, it has climbed about 50%, but 2025 hasn’t been smooth sailing; the token is still down more than 40% so far.
That might be about to change. In fact, the past 24 hours have shown why many believe Ondo price could be heading for a new all-time high sooner rather than later.
This breakdown is based on insights shared by Altcoin Buzz, who has 468,000 YouTube subscribers, and highlights three major reasons why Ondo could explode in the coming weeks.
Here are reasons why.
What you'll learn 👉
Global Markets Launch
The biggest news is the launch of Ondo Global Markets, the project’s own blockchain platform. For the first time, investors outside of the U.S. can buy tokenized versions of stocks like Tesla, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Uber directly on-chain.
This isn’t just buying and selling either. Those tokenized stocks can be swapped for stablecoins or even used as collateral in DeFi. Picture using Tesla stock to borrow ETH, that’s exactly the kind of thing Ondo is opening the door to.
For the RWA sector, this is a huge moment. Tokenizing real-world assets has always been the dream, and Ondo is making it accessible with simple APIs and easy interfaces so even people who aren’t into blockchain can use it.
Tokenized Stocks Go Live
Alongside the Global Markets launch, Ondo rolled out more than 100 tokenized U.S. stocks on its first day. The goal is even bigger: over 1,000 listed by the end of the year. Nearly 300 are already available, and more are coming fast.
Ondo clearly wants to become the “on-chain NASDAQ,” and its ties to BlackRock give that idea real weight. BlackRock is the world’s biggest ETF issuer, and Ondo not only trades in its Biddle Fund but also offers it on-chain.
TVL is already at record highs, with more than $1 billion on Ethereum and over $200 million on Solana. And this is before the stock launches really take off. The writing’s on the wall: traditional institutions are coming, and retail traders won’t be alone much longer.

WLFI Connection
The third driver is the launch of World Liberty Financial (WLFI), the Trump-backed DeFi project that went live this week. WLFI has Ondo in its portfolio, not a massive amount, about $300,000 worth, but what matters more is the connection between the two projects.
WLFI has said multiple times that Ondo is a key piece of its RWA strategy. Plus, its compliant stablecoin, USD1, is expected to integrate with Ondo.
That could be a game changer because Ondo’s own stablecoin, USDY, isn’t compliant and isn’t available to U.S. investors. When Americans eventually get access to tokenized securities on Ondo, they’ll likely do it with USD1.
And with WLFI’s hype running at full speed this week, it’s no surprise Ondo is catching some of that energy.
What This Means for Ondo
Put it all together and Ondo looks set for a big September. But this isn’t just about the next few weeks. The plan to hit 1,000 tokenized stocks by year’s end shows how ambitious Ondo is.
Add in BlackRock’s involvement and the broader push for RWA adoption, and Ondo is positioning itself as one of the sector’s leaders.
The last 24 hours were huge, but they might just be the start of something bigger for the rest of 2025.
