Blockchain.com And NYSE Plan 24/7 Tokenized Stock Access

TL;DR

• Blockchain.com and NYSE Group have signed an agreement to explore access to tokenized U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs.
• The proposed service would use NYSE’s planned digital trading venue and could support around-the-clock trading for eligible global users.
• Nothing is live yet: the project remains subject to the launch of NYSE’s digital ATS and required regulatory approvals.

Blockchain.com and the New York Stock Exchange are exploring a route to bring tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly into a crypto-native trading platform.

The two companies have signed an agreement covering product development and market-data sharing, with the longer-term goal of giving Blockchain.com users access to tokenized versions of NYSE-listed securities.

The headline feature is obvious: trading would not have to stop when Wall Street closes.

Tokenized Stocks Could Trade Outside Normal Market Hours

NYSE has already outlined plans for a digital alternative trading system built around tokenized securities.

The proposed venue is designed to support features that are far more familiar to crypto traders than traditional brokerage customers: 24/7 access, fractional ownership, stablecoin funding and onchain settlement.
