The deal combines NYSE’s planned digital trading platform with Blockchain.com’s global customer base. It was announced this week.
What the Agreement Covers
The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding. It covers the planned distribution of tokenized U.S. exchange listed stocks and ETFs.
Under the plan, eligible Blockchain.com users could access these assets through NYSE’s digital trading platform. This is still subject to regulatory approval.
The companies have not said which countries will get access first. NYSE’s planned platform is designed to support trading around the clock, not just during normal market hours.
The platform would also handle settlement onchain. NYSE has said before that the system will support fractional trading and funding through stablecoins.
Blockchain.com Executive Chairman and CEO Peter Smith called tokenized stocks one of the biggest advancements in modern finance. He said linking with the NYSE platform could bring tokenized assets to Blockchain.com’s users worldwide.
NYSE also has a related agreement with Securitize from March of this year. Securitize is expected to act as a digital transfer agent and broker-dealer participant on the new platform.
Market Data Sharing Between the Companies
The agreement also includes a plan to share market data. ICE Data Services is an affiliate of NYSE’s parent company, Intercontinental Exchange.
ICE Data Services plans to distribute Blockchain.com’s crypto market data and analytics to its own clients. This would give traditional finance customers a new view into crypto pricing.
At the same time, Blockchain.com plans to add certain ICE and NYSE market data feeds to its app. That would give its users real-time stock information alongside their crypto holdings.
Blockchain.com says it has more than 44 million confirmed accounts. NYSE Group President Lynn Martin said the future of capital markets belongs to firms that combine traditional finance trust with digital asset accessibility.
Blockchain.com is not new to tokenized stocks. The company already offers them to eligible users in several markets.
Earlier this year, Blockchain.com expanded its partnership with Ondo Finance across Europe. That deal gives users in 30 European Economic Area countries access to more than 200 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs.
The company has also been growing its regulated presence in Africa. Blockchain.com recently joined the Nigerian Securities and Exchange Commission’s Accelerated Regulatory Incubation Programme, known as ARIP.
That program creates a regulated space for digital asset companies operating in Nigeria. It is one of several steps Blockchain.com has taken to expand its footprint outside the United States.
Tokenized products can differ from owning traditional shares directly. Blockchain.com says its Ondo-powered products track the economic performance of the underlying stocks and ETFs rather than granting direct ownership.
The company says licensed U.S. custodians hold the assets that back those tokenized products.
The agreement between Blockchain.com and NYSE still needs regulatory sign-off before it can move forward. Neither company has said when Blockchain.com users might be able to access the planned NYSE tokenized securities platform.
