Ondo Finance Launches Ondo Network for Next-Generation Trading Products
Ondo Finance has launched the Ondo Network to power its next generation of trading products, including perpetual futures platform Ondo Perps. The network is designed as a fast and private execution layer that combines features of centralized exchanges with blockchain verification capabilities while maintaining non-custodial control over user funds. The company highlights significant growth in tokenized real-world assets on public blockchains, which have reached $31 billion — up from $5.4 billion at the start of 2025. Ondo has become a major player in this space with over $2.5 billion in total value locked and more than $3.4 billion in platform assets. Ondo shifted away from building its own blockchain after realizing execution speed was critical for trading, not just settlement efficiency. The new network uses secure hardware enclaves to isolate trade executions while maintaining transparency through cryptographic verification by independent attestors.
