Nasdaq makes push to launch trading of tokenized securities I think this makes great sense, and am not sure why it isn't already in existence. Why can't US stocks trade 24/7? Crypto can do it, why can't the stock market? I think it's legacy exchanges trying to protect their old school business and margins, but it makes little sense. The hard parts (I would think) are -ensuring that one token represents one share of stock -timing of buys and sells so that the correct person receives the dividends -figuring out how to do short selling so the short position isn't a nekkid short Crypto is able to do all that, but then again crypto tokens themselves are the asset. A token which represents a share of stock has to (somehow) map back to the actual stock position, held somewhere.
