Tokenization: The Future of Wall Street

In early 2021, a surge of retail investors betting on meme stocks exposed the stock markets outdated infrastructure. This event led to the exploration of tokenization, a process that transforms stocks into digital assets using blockchain technology. Major banks like J.P. Morgan and Robinhoods CEO, Vlad Tenev, support this idea. While tokenization offers benefits, concerns about individual investor protection and market stability persist. Companies like Superstate and Robinhood are exploring this technology, potentially offering more flexibility for active traders. The DTCC and Citadel Securities are also involved, with the latter urging caution to ensure investor protection and market stability.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
