Nasdaq's $100M Bet on Tokenization Ignites Blockchain Boom
Nasdaq's $100 million investment in Payward, the parent company of Kraken, is pushing the boundaries of tokenization. The two companies are working together to create infrastructure for tokenized equities and always-on financial markets.
Ethereum (ETH), Chainlink (LINK), Solana (SOL), XRP, and DigiTap ($TAP) are five cryptos that offer different ways to approach the shift towards blockchain adoption. DigiTap is an early-stage crypto-fintech ecosystem that provides consumer payment functionality.
Nasdaq's investment in Kraken's parent company has sparked a convergence between traditional markets and cryptocurrencies. The partnership aims to connect regulated equities with blockchain-based markets, making it easier for investors to access tokenized assets.
