Blockchain.com and NYSE Team Up on 24/7 Tokenized Stock Trading

Blockchain.com and NYSE Group have signed an agreement to explore access to tokenized U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs. The proposed service would use NYSE's planned digital trading venue, which could support around-the-clock trading for eligible global users.

The project remains subject to the launch of NYSE's digital ATS (Alternative Trading System) and required regulatory approvals. Blockchain.com would become a distribution partner if the system launches, giving its global customer base access to tokenized versions of exchange-listed shares and ETFs from the same ecosystem used for digital assets.

The companies also want data flowing in both directions: NYSE parent ICE could distribute Blockchain.com's crypto-market data, while Blockchain.com would integrate ICE and NYSE equity data into its own products. This partnership puts two trends directly together: crypto exchanges moving aggressively into tokenized equities and traditional market operators experimenting with blockchain-based settlement.
