The acquisition could significantly enhance the infrastructure and data reliability needed for the mainstream adoption of tokenized finance.
RedStone, a prominent oracle provider that secures over $6 billion in onchain value across 110 blockchains, announced Tuesday it has acquired Security Token Market (STM.co), along with its TokenizeThis conference, to expand its US and institutional presence.
RedStone co-founder Marcin Kaźmierczak said in a statement that the acquisition of STM could help them meet the growing demands of the onchain economy. It combines STM’s real-world asset (RWA) data and industry presence with RedStone’s oracle infrastructure to support crypto and institutional markets.
“We are kicking off 2026, the year of tokenized finance and DeFi convergence, with a just-on-point expansion.” Kaźmierczak said. “That new onchain economy requires trustworthy data, reliable risk ratings, and infrastructure capable of serving both crypto-native and institutional markets.
“STM has been the leading voice and data engine behind real-world asset tokenization for years, and integrating their expertise and industry presence with RedStone’s oracle technology will offer the comprehensive platform that space requires,” he added.
STM, founded in 2018, hosts the largest global database of tokenized RWAs, monitoring more than 800 onchain equities, properties, debt instruments, and funds with a combined market capitalization of more than $60 billion.
TokenizeThis, STM’s flagship annual conference on RWA tokenization, brings together banks, asset managers, regulators, issuers, and blockchain leaders to explore tokenized equities, debt, real estate, and private credit across TradFi and DeFi.
Under the deal, Herwig Konings becomes RedStone’s Advisor and Head of TokenizeThis, and Jason Barraza will oversee business development to grow relationships with asset managers, banks, and tokenization platforms.
“Security Token Market was founded in 2018 to bring clarity, data, and institutional-grade intelligence to the emerging world of tokenized assets. RedStone is the perfect home to accelerate that vision. Their oracle infrastructure already powers many of the largest RWA and yield-focused protocols in the world, and together we can serve institutions with the combined data, research, and events platform the industry has been waiting for,” Barraza said.
