Dinari and tZERO have joined forces to build a framework that lets broker-dealers offer tokenized US equities without having to construct the plumbing themselves. The partnership, announced on July 8, 2026, pairs Dinari’s custodial tokenized equity issuance platform with tZERO’s regulated brokerage, custody, clearing, settlement, and asset-servicing stack. The result is a single integration point for offering tokenized stocks to clients.
How the framework actually works
Dinari operates what it calls the dShares Financial Network, a system where each token represents a 1:1 ownership claim on an underlying US equity. So dAAPL is backed by actual Apple shares, dTSLA by Tesla shares, dNVDA by Nvidia shares. It’s not a synthetic derivative or a price-tracking wrapper. It’s custodial ownership, tokenized.
Those dShares tokens currently live across multiple blockchain networks, including Arbitrum, Ethereum, Base, and Polygon.
tZERO brings the regulatory scaffolding, operating under SEC and FINRA guidelines and providing institutional-grade clearing, settlement, and custody infrastructure.
