Tokenized stocks, blockchain-based versions of traditional shares, are transforming equity trading by offering 24/7 trading, fractional ownership, and global access. These digital assets can be backed by real shares held in custody or utilize oracles and smart contracts to mirror real-world stock prices. This innovation allows for faster transactions and integration with decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. Despite their potential, tokenized stocks face challenges such as regulatory uncertainty, technical risks, and low liquidity. As the market evolves, these issues will need to be addressed to fully realize the benefits of tokenized equity trading.
