OKX and ICE set November 23 launch for tokenized securities venue with Securitize as provider

OKX and Intercontinental Exchange are set to open their OKXICE Tokenized Securities Venue on November 23, with Securitize saying it will provide the tokenization infrastructure for the project.

In a blog post on OKX’s learning site, the exchange said the venue is being launched with ICE and will bring tokenized securities trading onchain. Securitize separately said it is the tokenization provider for the venue and that more than 70 assets will trade onchain around the clock, each backed 1:1 by an underlying U.S. share.

What the venue is expected to offer

The launch language points to a trading venue built around tokenized versions of securities rather than a broad new crypto market. According to Securitize, the assets will be available onchain 24/7 and tied 1:1 to underlying U.S. shares.

OKX described the venue as a way to bring U.S. capital markets onchain. The announcement did not add operational details in the excerpted material about how trading access will work beyond the launch date and the tokenized structure of the assets.

Securitize’s public post framed its role as the infrastructure provider for the tokenization layer, while OKX presented the project as a joint effort with ICE under the OKXICE brand. The launch date is November 23.

The venue’s rollout adds another concrete example of tokenized securities moving from concept to a named trading product, with the assets backed by U.S. shares and structured for continuous onchain trading. Further details on which assets will be available at launch were not fully spelled out in the material, though Securitize said the venue would eventually cover more than 70.
