Avalanche Lands 724 Tokenized Stocks via Dinari as Securitize RWA Nears $1B

Avalanche just picked up two separate pieces of good news in the tokenized-equity race within days of each other, and the combination gave the network’s token a visible price bump.
Dinari launched dShares trading for 724 tokenized US stocks and ETFs, including the full S&P 500, on Avalanche’s C-Chain, settled in USDC, with non-US investors getting access to more than 350 of those instruments. Separately, Securitize’s cumulative real-world-asset deployment on Avalanche approached $1 billion, a milestone that contributed to a brief 7% pop in AVAX’s price.
Covering the full S&P 500 rather than a curated subset of popular names is a meaningfully broader offering than most tokenized-equity products have launched with so far, positioning Dinari’s dShares as closer to a genuine index-level access point than a narrow selection of high-profile tickers.
The Securitize RWA figure approaching $1 billion is arguably the more structurally important number of the two, since it reflects accumulated real-world asset value settling on Avalanche over time rather than a single product launch, a trend line that matters more for the network’s long-term positioning in institutional tokenization than any single day’s price reaction.
Together, the two stories reinforce Avalanche’s specific bet in the increasingly crowded tokenized-asset race: rather than competing primarily on raw transaction throughput, the network has leaned into attracting the specific infrastructure providers, Dinari, Securitize, and others, building regulated, real-world-asset-focused products on top of it.
