Sentient Markets tokenizes real securities — stocks, ETFs, bonds, and private equity — on institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure. Your ownership is immutable, transparent, and legally binding.
A tokenized security is a real financial instrument — stock, bond, ETF — represented as a digital token on a blockchain. Same rights. Same regulations. Better infrastructure.
Every tokenized security on Sentient Markets follows a rigorous, SEC-compliant process from creation to your portfolio.
Securities counsel structures the offering under SEC-approved exemptions (Reg D, Reg A+, or Reg S). All offering documents — Private Placement Memorandums, subscription agreements, and compliance frameworks — are prepared and filed.
Security tokens are deployed using the ERC-3643 standard on Ethereum — the industry standard backed by the DTCC. Transfer restrictions, KYC/AML whitelisting, jurisdictional rules, and dividend logic are all embedded directly in the contract.
Every investor completes KYC/AML verification and accreditation checks. Only verified wallets are whitelisted on-chain — unverified addresses physically cannot hold or receive tokens. This is compliance by design, not by policy.
Tokens are minted to verified investor wallets. Underlying assets are held by institutional-grade custodians with SIPC protection. The SEC-registered transfer agent maintains the official master securityholder file — on the blockchain itself.
Tokenized securities trade on FINRA-approved Alternative Trading Systems (ATS) with atomic on-chain settlement. Transfers happen only between whitelisted wallets, with compliance checks executed automatically at every step.
In May 2025, the SEC confirmed that distributed ledger technology can serve as the official master securityholder file. This means the blockchain record is your legal proof of ownership — not a courtesy copy, not an approximation.
Every token on Sentient Markets is managed by an SEC-registered transfer agent. When you hold a token, you hold the security. Full stop.
We don't build everything from scratch. We partner with the most trusted, regulated names in digital securities to deliver institutional-grade service.
The backbone of our securities infrastructure. Securitize is an SEC-registered transfer agent and FINRA-registered broker-dealer that administers over $38 billion across 715 funds. They maintain the official blockchain-based ownership record for every token on our platform.

The only public blockchain natively built for regulated securities — with governance, identity, compliance, confidentiality, and settlement at the protocol level. Node operators must be licensed financial entities, ensuring institutional-grade network integrity.
That's the SEC's position — and ours. We operate under full federal securities regulation because your trust demands nothing less.
All securities offerings are registered with the SEC or conducted under approved exemptions (Reg D, Reg A+, Reg S). Transfer agent operations comply with SEC Rules 17Ad-1 through 17Ad-23.
Trading occurs on FINRA-approved Alternative Trading Systems. Broker-dealer operations meet all FINRA requirements for supervision, communications, advertising, and recordkeeping.
Full Bank Secrecy Act compliance with mandatory KYC, AML, and CFT requirements aligned with the GENIUS Act framework. Continuous transaction monitoring and suspicious activity reporting.
Investments held through SIPC-member broker-dealers. Qualified custodians maintain 1:1 asset backing with real-time reconciliation. Your assets are protected by the same framework as traditional brokerage accounts.
