Hadron has partnered with KraneShares and Bitfinex Securities to advance global tokenized securities by combining blockchain, compliance, and market expertise.
Tether, the company behind the USDT stablecoin, announced that asset tokenization platform Hadron has entered into a strategic agreement with global asset management firm KraneShares and regulated tokenized securities platform Bitfinex Securities to accelerate the development and adoption of tokenized securities in global markets.
The partnership aims to connect traditional financial products with blockchain-based systems by combining technology infrastructure, regulatory compliance and market expertise.
The global tokenized securities market is expected to expand from approximately $30 billion in 2025 to nearly $10 trillion by 2030, reflecting growing institutional interest in on-chain capital formation. KraneShares, known for managing the largest listed China-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S., will collaborate with Hadron and Bitfinex Securities to explore tokenized exchange-traded products and improve market accessibility.
Hadron provides the technology for a secure and scalable tokenized asset market, while Bitfinex Securities provides regulatory and operational support, including secondary trading liquidity, through a platform licensed by the National Commission for Digital Assets of El Salvador (CNAD). KraneShares provides expertise in ETFs and a global distribution network. The partnership aims to assess institutional demand, validate tokenized product structures, and facilitate the integration of real-world assets.
The plan will emphasize expanding institutional participation in tokenized markets, building on El Salvador’s regulatory framework for digital assets. As institutional interest in tokenizing real-world assets grows, our collaboration seeks to lay the foundation for product innovation, operational efficiency, and cross-border investor access.
In fact, tokenized ETFs not only allow investors to gain exposure to their funds through digital wallets with near-instant settlement and fewer intermediaries, but also provide asset managers with a new distribution channel. This is especially true in markets where retail investors do not have access to traditional brokerages.
Institutional-grade compliant asset tokenization
Hadron by Tether is an asset tokenization platform designed to simplify the process of converting a wide range of assets into digital tokens.

The platform includes features such as asset issuance and redemption, KYC compliance, blockchain-based reporting, capital markets management, and regulatory support. By making asset tokenization more accessible, Hadron by Tether seeks to transform the financial sector and influence the future of digital finance.
In early 2025, Hadron integrated Chainalytic’s compliance and monitoring solutions, demonstrating Tether’s commitment to strengthening its regulatory-ready infrastructure and providing institutional-grade tokenization services.
