Startale Group and SBI Holdings have announced the launch of the Strium Network, a blockchain platform designed to enable 24/7 trading of tokenized real-world assets and equities.
The companies said the goal is to reduce the inefficiencies of traditional markets that are limited to banking hours, using decentralized finance (DeFi) style infrastructure to support continuous access for investors.
Strium is built as a Layer 1 blockchain intended to offer round-the-clock spot and derivatives trading, giving investors more flexibility to respond during volatile periods.
Beyond equities, Strium will also support the tokenization of assets such as real estate, commodities, and art, enabling fractional ownership and broader accessibility. Startale and SBI said the platform targets the growing tokenized securities opportunity, which they estimate could reach $18.9 trillion, with particular relevance in Asia.
The partnership was announced on February 5, 2026, and Strium Network is expected to launch in the coming months, pending regulatory approvals.
