๐จ Tokenized Stocks Face a Demand Problem ๐
The SEC recently opened a new path for tokenized stock trading in the U.S., but TD Cowen expects limited near-term demand from both retail and institutional investors.
Why?
โข ๐บ๐ธ U.S. investors already have easy access to traditional shares
โข ๐ง Tokenized markets may face thinner liquidity
โข โ๏ธ Added operational complexity could limit adoption
โข ๐ 24/7 trading doesnโt guarantee better pricing
โข ๐ข Many stock issuers reportedly show little interest in tokenization
One example: 99.9% of Figureโs notional trading reportedly took place through its traditional listed shares rather than its blockchain-based version.
Meanwhile, perpetual futures could see stronger demand from crypto-native traders seeking leveraged exposure.
Will tokenized stocks eventually find a real use case beyond 24/7 trading?
