The SEC just greenlit tokenized stock trading on Nasdaq and NYSE.
Now they're going further.
A new exemption dropping this week lets crypto-native platforms like Coinbase offer onchain U.S. equity trading.

Time-limited.
And some tokenized stocks won't carry voting rights or dividends.
This is still the biggest regulatory shift for crypto and traditional finance merging.
Ever.
