Securitize to Go Public via $1.25B SPAC Deal with Cantor Equity Partners II

Why It Matters

The diversification reduces reliance on Ethereum and signals institutional confidence in multiple L1 ecosystems, potentially accelerating multi‑chain adoption for tokenized assets, while underscoring the rapid growth of the tokenized RWA sector and the market relevance of platforms like Securitize.

Deal Summary
