Insights
MFH partners with SBI Digital Markets to distribute tokenized assets while gaining access to advanced tokenization technology.
This strategic partnership between Mercurity Fintech Holding (MFH) and SBI Digital Markets represents a significant advancement in MFH's tokenization capabilities. The collaboration creates a complementary business model where MFH's subsidiary Chaince Securities will distribute SBIDM's tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) to institutional clients, while receiving tokenization technology from SBIDM in return.
The partnership addresses a critical market gap by combining distribution networks with tokenization infrastructure. For MFH, this arrangement provides immediate access to sophisticated tokenization technology without the substantial R&D investment typically required to develop such systems internally. Meanwhile, SBIDM gains a regulatory-compliant distribution channel into the U.S. market.
The focus on regulatory compliance is particularly noteworthy. By emphasizing SEC and FINRA compliance, the partnership demonstrates awareness of the regulatory hurdles that have historically limited institutional adoption of digital assets. This compliance-first approach targets precisely the investor segments most concerned with regulatory risk: institutional investors, high-net-worth individuals, and accredited investors.
The tokenization of real-world assets represents one of the most promising applications of blockchain technology in traditional finance. By tokenizing assets like real estate, commodities, or private equity, these partnerships create fractional ownership opportunities and potentially greater liquidity for traditionally illiquid investments. MFH's connection to SBI Group, a major Japanese financial conglomerate, also provides access to Asian markets and institutional networks that would be difficult to develop independently.
While this partnership is still at the memorandum of understanding stage and implementation details remain to be seen, the strategic alignment of complementary capabilities positions both companies to potentially accelerate RWA tokenization adoption in a regulatory-compliant manner.

(the "Company," "we," "us," "our company," or "MFH") (Nasdaq: MFH), a digital fintech group, today announced a strategic partnership with SBI Digital Markets (SBIDM), a subsidiary of SBI Digital Asset Holdings, the digital asset arm of Japan's leading conglomerate SBI Group. The underlying objective of this partnership is to accelerate the adoption of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) and facilitate its global distribution through regulatory-compliant investment solutions.
The partnership between MFH and SBIDM establishes a framework for collaboration that will utilize their respective strengths to connect institutional capital with tokenized assets while ensuring full regulatory compliance across key markets.
Under the memorandum of understanding, MFH’s subsidiary Chaince Securities, LLC will facilitate the distribution of SBIDM’s tokenized asset offerings, with a focus on ensuring compliance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). This collaboration will specifically target institutional investors, high-net-worth individuals, and accredited investors seeking sophisticated, compliant digital asset exposure. In parallel, SBIDM will provide tokenization technology and related infrastructure to MFH, supporting the Company’s expansion of digital asset capabilities.
"We're incredibly excited about this partnership with SBIDM," said Wilfred Daye, CSO of Mercurity Fintech Holding Inc. and CEO of Chaince Securities, LLC. "The tokenization of real-world assets is a transformative trend that’s changing how investors access markets. This collaboration lets us bring institutional-grade digital solutions to our clients while maneuvering through complex regulations that they deeply care about."
