The parent company of the New York Stock Exchange is signaling that tokenization is entering the mainstream. While crypto exchanges have long offered tokenized U.S. equities, they were limited to non‑U.S. investors.
OKX currently lists more than 70 tokenized tickers, issued under offshore regulations that bar U.S. participation. Despite this restriction, the market has expanded rapidly; tokenized stocks now total roughly $3.2 billion, a 15 % increase over the past month, according to RWA.xyz.
OKXICE now aims to bring this activity onshore, seeking approval to operate on a regulated U.S. venue. If granted, the tokenized versions would confer the same dividend and voting rights as traditional shares.
Investors are watching closely for the timeline, which hinges on a 30‑day objection period and additional regulatory milestones. Cuomo expressed optimism, stating, “And we’re just getting started.”
