WINTER PARK, Fla., May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Streamex Corp. (“Streamex”) (NASDAQ: STEX), a technology company building the tokenization ecosystem for all real-world assets beginning with commodities, today announced the launch of 24/7 secondary liquidity infrastructure for holders to trade tokenized securities, developed in partnership with Orca, a leading automated market maker (AMM) infrastructure provider on the Solana blockchain. Streamex’s GLDY, a gold-backed, yield-bearing tokenized security, is the inaugural asset to trade on this infrastructure, in the “GLDY Pool on Orca.” This marks a significant milestone for the broader tokenized real-world asset market as a vital piece of infrastructure is added.
Highlights
- GLDY can now be bought and sold 24/7. Investors holding GLDY now have access to a secondary market where they can trade their position at any time, with real liquidity provided by institutional liquidity providers.
- Streamex and Orca are addressing the biggest problem in tokenized securities. Until now, investors who bought tokenized securities had no reliable venue to trade them. The GLDY Pool on Orca is on-chain infrastructure custom built by Orca that permits Streamex to enforce its regulatory compliance permissions automatically at the token level utilizing Streamex’s KYC/accreditation technology, removing the friction that has prevented tokenized securities from trading more like real financial instruments.
- While built for integration with GLDY, the custom-built technology stack will serve as a model for any tokenized security, including stocks, bonds, commodities, real estate, or royalties. This secondary liquidity infrastructure is designed to power a new generation of regulated financial instruments trading on decentralized rails.
GLDY is offered and sold pursuant to Rule 506(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is available exclusively to verified accredited investors. The partnership with Orca is designed to provide prospective investors in the GLDY offering with confidence that, following their primary investment, a compliant avenue exists for future onchain secondary liquidity.
Henry McPhie, Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Streamex, said:
“The distribution problem has been the defining obstacle for tokenized securities, issuers can bring assets onchain, but without a compliant secondary market, investors have nowhere to trade them. We believe this launch represents a significant step toward addressing that challenge. What we’ve built with Orca is among the first infrastructure of its kind: a decentralized, permissioned trading pool that operates 24/7 and enforces compliance at the token level, not layered on as an afterthought. GLDY is the inaugural tokenized security to trade in this environment, and we believe this is the model the entire industry will follow. Liquid secondary markets are not a nice-to-have, they are essential for institutional adoption of tokenized assets, and we now have the only one.”
How It Works: Compliance Enforced at the Token Level
Orca’s permissioned pool infrastructure introduces a compliance enforcement layer directly at the Solana token level managed directly by issuers like Streamex, enabling tokenized securities to trade 24/7 in a permissioned trading environment without compromising the efficiency of permissionless blockchain infrastructure. Key components include:
- Token-level access controls that initialize investor accounts in a frozen state by default. Only eligible wallets whose holders have passed Streamex’s KYC and accredited investor verification are permitted to hold or trade GLDY.
- An on-chain access control layer that syncs eligibility verification status in real-time from Streamex’s KYC platform, ensuring investor eligibility is continuously and automatically enforced.
- Permissioned concentrated liquidity pools hosted on the Solana blockchain via the Orca protocol’s smart contracts, providing deep, capital-efficient secondary market liquidity available 24/7 and supported by institutional market makers.
The Orca protocol’s fully-audited AMM infrastructure has processed over
Past operational performance is not indicative of future results, and the trading of tokenized securities involves risks distinct from those associated with trading in non-security digital assets, including regulatory, smart contract, and blockchain network risks.
Revenue Arrangement
Streamex will provide support to Orca’s deployment of the GLDY Pool including by maintaining the KYC/Accredited Investor Whitelist and assisting with investor onboarding. In exchange for its services, Streamex will earn a portion of protocol fee revenue that Orca earns from the GLDY Pool, in addition to the transfer fees inherent to GLDY.
Investment Considerations for Prospective GLDY Purchasers
The availability of secondary market infrastructure is one factor that prospective primary purchasers may wish to consider in evaluating an investment in GLDY. Streamex believes that the existence of a venue where verified accredited investors may seek liquidity for their positions, on a 24/7, decentralized basis, enhances the investment characteristics of the GLDY offering. However, prospective investors should be aware of the following: GLDY tokens are “restricted securities” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Any secondary resale is subject to applicable legal restrictions, including requirements under the Securities Act. There can be no assurance that the secondary market will achieve or sustain meaningful trading volume or that a holder will be able to sell GLDY at any particular time or price. Liquidity in the secondary market depends on the availability of willing counterparties, the continued operation of Orca’s infrastructure, and ongoing compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.
