Why it matters
Tokenized stock trading has moved past the pilot phase and into infrastructure and production. This trend, alongside moves by the NYSE toward full onchain settlement, suggests a major shift in how securities are traded and settled.
Major financial institutions, including BlackRock and Goldman Sachs, have previously participated in a DTCC tokenization pilot supported by the SEC.
