U.S. Stocks Now Tradable 24/7 in MetaMask Wallet Through Ondo Partnership

MetaMask — the popular self-custodial crypto wallet developed by Consensys — has expanded its ecosystem by partnering with Ondo Finance/Ondo Global Markets to bring tokenized U.S. stocks, ETFs and commodities directly into the wallet, allowing eligible users to trade traditional financial assets 24 hours a day and manage them alongside crypto holdings. 

Launched on Feb. 3, 2026, the integration lets users access 200+ tokenized U.S. equities and exchange-traded funds — including shares tied to major companies like Tesla, Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, and ETFs linked to gold, silver and tech indexes — all without a traditional brokerage account. 

Once inside the MetaMask mobile or extension interface, users can buy, hold, trade and transfer the tokenized securities using USDC on the Ethereum mainnet via the MetaMask Swaps feature. Trading is available 24 hours a day, five days a week (from Sunday evening through Friday night U.S. time), and token transfers remain available around the clock even outside market hours. 

The assets are represented as Ondo Global Markets tokens (GM tokens) — blockchain-based tokens designed to track the market value of the underlying stocks and ETFs — letting holders capture price exposure on-chain. They can be sent or received at any time, giving investors more flexibility compared with legacy brokerage systems. 

This expansion marks a significant step in bridging traditional capital markets with decentralized finance, putting U.S. equities and ETF exposure directly into a self-custodial wallet alongside crypto assets. MetaMask CEO Joe Lubincalled it “a better model” for accessing real-world financial markets without intermediaries, while Ondo President Ian de Bode said the move broadens access to tokenized securities and “brings the economics of traditional markets on-chain.” 

Currently, the feature is available to eligible users outside the United States due to regulatory restrictions; users in jurisdictions such as the U.S., Europe, the U.K., Canada and several others are excluded for now.
