“NYSE Eyes the Future: 24/7 Tokenized Stock Trading Moves Closer to Reality” 🚨🚨🚨

The New York Stock Exchange is stepping into the blockchain era, teaming up with Securitize to develop a 24/7 market for tokenized securities. The partnership would allow stocks and ETFs to be represented as digital tokens on blockchain networks—potentially transforming how assets are traded.

Securitize is set to become the NYSE’s first digital transfer agent, enabling the issuance of blockchain-based shares while maintaining the safeguards and structure of traditional financial markets.

The move signals a major shift toward blending Wall Street with crypto infrastructure, as institutions look to modernize trading systems without sacrificing investor protections.

Backed by heavyweights like BlackRock and Ark Invest, Securitize has been rapidly expanding and previously announced plans to go public at a $1.25 billion valuation.

Competition in the tokenization space is heating up. Kraken is working with Nasdaq on tokenized equities, while S&P Dow Jones recently licensed the S&P 500 for blockchain-based derivatives—showing growing momentum across the financial ecosystem.

Tokenization—turning real-world assets into blockchain-based tokens—has surged to a $26.5 billion market, up significantly from $7.8 billion just a year ago.

Wall Street isn’t just watching crypto anymore—it’s building on it.
