Streamex Corp. and tZERO Group have announced a partnership to enable secondary trading of GLDY, a forthcoming gold-linked tokenized security, on tZERO's regulated alternative trading system. This collaboration aims to establish a compliant secondary market infrastructure for the tokenized asset, supporting liquidity, price discovery, and investor participation within established regulatory frameworks.
The partnership represents a strategic move to provide institutional-grade secondary trading infrastructure for GLDY, which is anticipated to launch with an initial offering exceeding $100 million USD in early Q1. By utilizing tZERO's SEC- and FINRA-regulated ATS, Streamex aims to create a trading environment that meets the needs of institutional investors while maintaining compliance with U.S. securities laws. Secondary trading enables investors, including asset managers and ETFs holding GLDY, to manage subscriptions and redemptions while supporting transparent price discovery through continuous market activity.
Compliance and investor protection were central considerations in Streamex's selection of tZERO as a secondary trading partner. tZERO operates within a regulatory framework that includes an SEC- and FINRA-regulated broker-dealer, ATS, and special purpose broker-dealer in the U.S. This structure enables secondary trading of digital securities within established regulatory guardrails. According to Alan Konevsky, CEO of tZERO, "Our regulated ATS is designed to bring established securities market protections to tokenized assets, and this collaboration with Streamex reflects a shared commitment to building liquidity, price discovery, and investor confidence within a compliant, cross-asset framework."
Henry McPhie, Co-Founder & CEO at Streamex, emphasized the importance of durable market infrastructure, stating, "Our focus with GLDY has always been to build for durability, and a robust liquid secondary market for all assets we create. With the initial $100M+ USD GLDY launch anticipated in early Q1 we are excited to be able to work with tZERO and integrate into their regulated ATS to provide a compliant avenue for GLDY to trade." The partnership addresses what Konevsky describes as "a critical component of any functioning capital market" by providing organized secondary liquidity through regulated channels.
Streamex believes that pairing strong primary demand with regulated secondary trading infrastructure is essential for supporting long-term liquidity. With secondary trading enabled through tZERO's ATS, Streamex aims to foster an active trading environment that encourages participation from eligible investors, improves price discovery, and contributes to the overall resilience of the GLDY market. The collaboration represents a significant step in bridging traditional finance and blockchain-enabled markets through compliant digital asset solutions.

The development comes as tokenization of real-world assets gains momentum in financial markets, with institutional participants increasingly seeking regulated venues for digital asset trading. By establishing secondary trading capabilities through a regulated ATS, the partnership addresses key concerns around market integrity and investor protection while potentially expanding access to gold-linked digital investments. The infrastructure supports what both companies describe as a "cross-asset framework" that could serve as a model for future tokenized securities, demonstrating how blockchain technology can integrate with traditional regulatory structures to create new market opportunities.
