NYSE Plans Move Into Blockchain With Tokenized-Securities Trading Platform

By Adriano Marchese


The New York Stock Exchange plans to launch a platform for trading tokenized securities, pushing the exchange into blockchain-based markets.

Intercontinental Exchange, parent company of the exchange, said Monday the new platform will allow for tokenized trading, which includes 24/7 operations, instant settlement while using stablecoins--which are fiat currency-backed digital tokens--for funding.

The NYSE said it will seek regulatory approval for a new venue to allow trading and instant settlement of tokenized shares as well as digital‑only securities.

The company said the initiative is part of a broader push to modernize its clearing operations to better handle tokenized collateral and money transfers outside normal banking hours.

The company is working with banks including BNY and Citigroup on tokenized deposits that could move through its six clearinghouses.
