I find Nasdaq’s move to tokenize stocks pretty exciting. It tackles the old 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM EST trading schedule, rooted in 1792 open-outcry days, which a 2023 MIT study says blockchain could turn into 24/7 trading with near-instant settlements. With SEC Chair Atkins, who started in May 2025, comparing this to the digital music shift, I think approval’s likely—especially since a 2024 Consensys report pegs $17-24 billion in annual savings from blockchain. Nasdaq’s playing it safe, keeping tokenized stocks’ rights identical to traditional ones, but I see it as a sneaky step toward future on-chain DEX trading, even though Ondo Finance is already rocking 100+ tokenized U.S. stocks on Ethereum!
