BlockBeats News, March 19th, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission this morning officially approved a Nasdaq rule modification, allowing the trading of securities on its exchange in "tokenized form," marking a key step for the traditional capital market towards blockchain.

According to the plan, eligible stocks and ETFs can undergo clearing and settlement in the existing trading system in the form of on-chain tokens, sharing the same order book, the same trading priority, and exactly the same shareholder rights as traditional stocks. The pilot is based on the tokenization plan of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), investors can choose whether to settle in token form when placing orders, and the system will complete on-chain processing after the trade.

Nasdaq stated that in addition to the settlement method, trading rules, market data, fee structure, and regulatory oversight remain unchanged, and tokenized securities are fully integrated into the existing securities law framework.
