From Crypto to Wall Street: U.S. SEC Set to Approve Blockchain Tokenized Stock Trading - Tekedia

The SEC is preparing an innovation exemption that could let third parties issue and trade tokenized U.S. stocks on crypto venues.

The move could bring faster settlement, fractional ownership, and 24/7 trading through blockchain-based infrastructure.

Supporters say it could expand access and efficiency in capital markets, while critics warn about investor protection and market integrity.

The proposal is expected to intensify debate over how to regulate tokenized equities and other real-world assets.
