Enso Integrates xStocks on Arbitrum, Expanding Real-World Asset Access in DeFi
Enso’s integration on Arbitrum leverages the platform’s existing infrastructure for swaps, cross-chain routing, and DeFi actions. This integration allows applications already connected to Enso to seamlessly add xStocks on Arbitrum without the need to build separate routing or aggregation systems for the assets.
“Real-world assets are one of the fastest-growing categories on Arbitrum, and execution infrastructure is what turns that growth into something builders can actually ship,” commented Peter Haymond, head of DeFi partnerships at Arbitrum. Enso’s integration of xStocks on Arbitrum provides any wallet, fintech, or trading platform in the ecosystem with tokenized equity access without the need to develop the infrastructure themselves. This level of composability enhances as more real-world assets transition to the blockchain.”
Enso, established in 2021, has developed an execution layer for on-chain finance, enabling applications, protocols, and institutions to access liquidity and execute multi-step transactions across DeFi and tokenized assets through a single API.
The project has secured approximately $14.2 million in funding, with support from investors such as Polychain Capital, Multicoin Capital, Spartan Group, IDEO CoLab Ventures, and Hypersphere.
The launch on Arbitrum expands Enso’s real-world asset business, which includes tokenized stock and metals execution through ether.fi Cash, an approved minting role for Ondo Finance, and infrastructure supporting Anchorage Digital’s Porto institutional terminal.
