NEAR Streamlines Access to Ondo Tokenized Stocks Across 30+ Networks

NEAR Protocol says eligible users can now request purchases of Ondo tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs through near.com, paying with stablecoins or other supported crypto assets across more than 30 blockchain networks.

The mechanism behind it, NEAR Intents, handles routing and settlement in the background so users don’t have to manually bridge funds or juggle wallets across multiple chains. That’s the headline mechanic.

The caveat that matters just as much: these tokenized instruments give holders economic exposure to the referenced stocks and ETFs, not direct ownership of the underlying shares, and access is restricted by jurisdiction and eligibility screening rather than open to everyone globally.
