Ondo Finance shared on social media platform X on Dec. 8 that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) closed a confidential investigation into its tokenization activities. The post summarized the multiyear inquiry and highlighted what the company views as a clearer regulatory landscape for onchain assets.

The company said:

The SEC has formally closed a confidential Biden-era investigation into Ondo — without any charges.

“The inquiry began in 2024, focused on whether Ondo’s tokenization of certain real-world assets complied with federal securities laws as well as whether the ONDO token was a security,” it explained. “The investigation came during a period of aggressive scrutiny of digital-asset firms, when Ondo’s rapid growth in tokenized Treasuries made it one of the earliest and most visible innovators in the category.”

The firm added: “This outcome is nevertheless an important milestone for the entire tokenization ecosystem. Regulators are shifting from enforcement-first approaches toward frameworks that support modernized market infrastructure.” Ondo also pointed to expanding collaboration between the SEC and industry participants as global adoption of tokenized assets grows.

The company further detailed:

The path is now clearer than ever for tokenized Treasuries and tokenized equities to become core components of U.S. capital markets. The future of global finance will be onchain, and Ondo will help lead that transition.

Advocates say oversight from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) can challenge crypto firms. They also say tokenization improves transparency, settlement efficiency, and global connectivity across financial systems.
