The top regulator of the US stock market personally stepped in to give the chain a platform.
On September 29, Paul Atkins, Chairman of the U.S. SEC, said in a CNBC interview that he hopes the stock market will move to run on-chain, and that the entire financial system is heading toward a Bitcoin and crypto era.
This isn’t just talk. On September 17, the SEC granted an “innovation exemption”: compliant platforms can directly conduct on-chain trading of tokenized U.S. stocks. The exemption period is 5 years. The tokens must be entitled to dividends and voting rights just like real stocks, and if a company doesn’t want this, it can veto within 30 days.
If this really comes to fruition, 24/7 U.S. stock trading and T+0 settlement may not be far off.
