NYSE plans tokenized securities platform with 24/7 trading and on-chain settlement
NYSE plans to develop a platform for trading and on-chain settlement of tokenized securities, enabling 24/7 trading of U.S.-listed equities and ETFs, subject to regulatory approval. The platform will support fractional shares, dollar-based orders, and stablecoin funding, using blockchains like Ethereum and Solana for near-instant settlement. Tokenized shares will be fully fungible with traditional securities, preserving dividends and shareholder rights. This initiative is part of parent company ICE’s broader digital strategy, which includes collaboration with banks like BNY and Citi. The project remains pending regulatory approval but represents a major step toward integrating blockchain into traditional markets.
