Securitize Eyes $1B SPAC Merger with Cantor Fitzgerald to Go Public
Securitize, a blockchain firm specializing in tokenizing traditional investments, is in advanced talks to merge with Cantor Fitzgerald's SPAC, Cantor Equity Partners II Inc. The deal could value the company at over $1 billion, marking a significant milestone for the real-world asset (RWA) tokenization sector.
Tokenization enables fractional ownership of assets like equities, bonds, and real estate through blockchain-based digital tokens, enhancing liquidity and transparency. The RWA market is gaining traction as institutional interest grows.
While discussions are ongoing, Securitize may still opt to remain private. The merger WOULD underscore the increasing convergence of traditional finance and blockchain technology.
