Securitize today rolled out tokenized shares representing 12 U.S. companies on the Solana blockchain for eligible investors.

NS3.AI says the tokens preserve standard shareholder benefits, including dividends and voting rights.

The tokens are backed one-for-one by the underlying shares and will initially trade during extended market hours on Securitize's registered broker-dealer platform, with plans to offer 24/7 trading at a future, unspecified date.

Securitize's shares rose about 10% on Thursday following the rollout.
