The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued an order enabling certain trading venues to offer tokenized versions of publicly traded U.S. stocks under an Innovation Exemption. This temporary regulatory pathway requires that holders of these stock tokens retain the same rights as traditional shareholders, including dividends and voting rights, and allows companies to object to their securities being tokenized. The move follows the Senate's failure to pass the Clarity Act, aiming to foster innovation while protecting investors and market integrity. The exemption lasts five years and is part of the SEC's broader Project Crypto initiative to modernize financial markets with blockchain technology, potentially enabling 24/7 trading and improved liquidity, though risks like volatility remain.
The SEC's new order on tokenized stocks sets a regulatory framework for potentially 24/7 trading.
