NYSE To Launch 24/7 Tokenised Securities Platform

The New York Stock Exchange, part of Intercontinental Exchange, is developing an on-chain trading and settlement platform for tokenised securities, pending regulatory approval.
If given the go-ahead, the new digital platform will enable tokenised trading experiences, including 24/7 operations, instant settlement, orders sized in dollar amounts, and stablecoin-based funding. The platform will combine off-chain price formation and blockchain-based post-trade systems.
NYSE said the platform will power a new NYSE venue that supports trading of tokenised shares fungible with traditionally issued securities as well as tokens natively issued as digital securities. The new venue is designed to be in line with existing market structure and established principles and distribution will take place via non-discriminatory access to all qualified broker-dealers.
The launch is part of ICE’s broader digital strategy, which includes preparing its clearing infrastructure to support 24/7 trading and the potential integration of tokenised collateral. ICE is now working with banks including BNY and Citi to support tokenised deposits across ICE’s clearinghouses to help clearing members transfer and manage money outside of traditional banking hours, meet margin obligations, and accommodate funding requirements over different jurisdictions and time zones.
“We are leading the industry toward fully on-chain solutions, grounded in the unmatched protections and high regulatory standards that position us to marry trust with state-of-the-art technology,” says Lynn Martin, president, NYSE Group.
