About Ondo Finance
Hi, we're Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services.

We were the first company to tokenize exposure to US Treasuries and have since expanded into several other assets. We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real-world assets and traditional crypto.
Founded by folks from Goldman Sachs's Digital Assets Team, we’re backed by some of the best investors in the world, including Founders Fund, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, Tiger Global, and more. We are currently the leaders in the space in terms of AUM and are well-capitalized to continue growing the firm. We're fully remote, with team members across the U.S.
