True Markets has introduced a new DeFi orderbook venue specifically for tokenized Nvidia equities. The service is now available to eligible clients located outside of the United States.
Why it matters
This launch aims to provide institutional-grade execution quality for tokenized assets, which traditionally require performance metrics comparable to established financial markets. The expansion marks a shift toward bringing traditional equity assets onto decentralized trading infrastructure.
True Markets now offers access to over 300 assets through its platform. While specific transaction costs for this new venue were not provided, the company contrasts this against the 100 basis point cost often associated with market orders on some automated market maker (AMM) pools.

Eligible investors outside the United States should note that this platform utilizes a decentralized orderbook, which operates differently from traditional brokerage interfaces. Consider reviewing the execution reporting and price protection features with a qualified financial professional before trading tokenized equities.
The takeaway
The move signals a growing effort to professionalize DeFi trading infrastructure for tokenized equities. Investors interested in this space should keep a close watch on future asset additions and compare the execution quality of these new orderbooks against existing digital asset trading venues.
