In its presentations to potential investors, Nscale disclosed its growth trajectory: its revenue surged to over $100 million in the second quarter of 2026, a sharp rise from around $37 million in the first quarter and roughly $33 million for the full year of 2025.

Mother of late Ondo Finance founder files lawsuit seeking to take control of the company.

Kathleen Allman, mother of late Ondo Finance founder Nathan Allman, has filed a lawsuit with the Delaware Court of Chancery, seeking to take control of the company and remove Ian De Bode from his positions as CEO and President. The complaint alleges that after Nathan Allman’s death, De Bode acted publicly in his capacity as CEO without board approval and attempted to establish control over the firm. Kathleen Allman claims that as the personal representative of Nathan Allman’s estate, she holds the company’s controlling voting rights, and intends to restructure the board of directors and remove De Bode on that basis. In response, De Bode called the allegations “unfounded,” adding that the company continues to receive support from key stakeholders, major investors, and the Ondo Foundation.

Ondo Abandons Independent Public Blockchain Roadmap, Launches New Execution Network to Build On-Chain Architecture with Exchange-Grade Performance

Ondo Finance has announced the launch of its new Ondo Network, a high-performance execution layer designed to combine centralized exchange (CEX)-level transaction speed with the non-custodial, secure settlement capabilities of blockchain. Ondo CEO Ian De Bode stated that the Ondo Network is an evolved version of the original Ondo Chain plan. The company will not operate two separate networks; instead, it has adjusted its roadmap from building a full blockchain to focusing on an execution layer architecture. According to the introduction, Ondo initially planned to comprehensively tokenize real-world assets (RWAs) via Ondo Chain. However, after developing the Ondo Perps perpetual contract trading platform and communicating with users, the company found that the core bottleneck in the current market is not asset settlement, but transaction execution efficiency. The Ondo Network adopts a modular architecture that separates execution, validation, and settlement. It uses secure hardware-isolated execution environments to boost transaction speed while retaining key blockchain features: user self-custody of assets, verifiable transactions, and permissionless access. Currently, Ondo Perps is the first application built on this network, supporting 24/7 trading of perpetual contracts for stocks and commodities, and allowing tokenized real-world assets to be used as collateral. Ondo added that the network will also support other high-performance, privacy-protective, verifiable execution applications in the future, such as spot trading, lending, and structured products. Additionally, the launch of Ondo Network will not change the positioning of the ONDO token. The CEO said that ONDO will remain the governance and incentive token for Ondo’s RWA ecosystem and market infrastructure. As the network gradually decentralizes, ONDO will be used to coordinate the incentive mechanisms for validators, observers, and other ecosystem participants.

Ondo Perps Launches Tokenized Stock Collateralization Feature

According to official announcements, Ondo Perps has launched a tokenized stock collateral feature, allowing all users to use Ondo Finance’s tokenized stocks as valid collateral assets for perpetual contract trading. The first supported assets include tokenized versions of the S&P 500 ETF (SPYon) and Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQon). Ondo noted that its perpetual contract platform has processed over $3.8 billion in trading volume. As traders’ demand grows for on-platform hedging, deep liquidity, tight spreads, low slippage, exchange speeds comparable to centralized exchanges (CEXs), and 24/7 trading, the on-chain stock derivatives market is expanding rapidly. The tokenized stock collateral mechanism allows traders to gain exposure to other markets without locking funds in stablecoins or selling existing assets, thereby improving capital efficiency. This feature is part of Ondo’s "Productive Capital" strategy, designed to gradually align the liquidity and capital efficiency of tokenized stocks and stock perpetual contracts with those of traditional derivatives markets. The company added that the current trading and margin infrastructure built on tokenized assets is just the beginning of a broader on-chain prime brokerage ecosystem, with plans to launch additional markets, liquidity products, and innovative features in the future.
