NYDIG says tokenized US stocks could expand blockchain benefits

According to NYDIG, stock tokenization won’t deliver major gains to crypto right away, though deeper on-chain integration could change that over time. NYDIG’s global head of research, Greg Cipolaro, explained, “The initial utility that tokenized stocks provide to blockchain networks such as Ethereum (ETH) is limited, but as their integration with blockchain expands accessibility, interoperability, and composability, those benefits will gradually grow.” He added that the most direct benefit that blockchain receives in the early stages is the transaction fees generated during the trading process of tokenized assets, and also, networks that store and manage tokenized assets will see their network effects strengthened over time. Cipolaro says tokenization will grow into a major trend in the years to come Tokenized real-world assets are drawing growing interest across the crypto space, particularly in U.S. stocks, as Coinbase and Kraken explore launching similar platforms stateside after their overseas success. Earlier this month, SEC’s Paul Atkins said the U.S. financial system could be ready to support tokenization in the coming years. According to Cipolaro, Atkins’ statement suggests that tokenization will become a significant theme in the market. One of the most important drivers of tokenization’s growth continues to be regulatory certainty and regulatory clarity. Although Atkins’ statement signals openness, existing frameworks treat a great deal of tokenized assets almost as if they are traditional securities. So, even as issuers face the burden of abiding by existing investor protections, disclosure requirements, and custody rules, this means they have a lack of autonomy in free-flowing within open DeFi worlds. Capilaro asserted that RWAs could be integrated into DeFi through composability, acting as collateral, lending assets, or tradable products. Still, their progress will depend on how quickly technology, infrastructure, and regulation develop.
