  • Igloo Creates Financial Instrument to List Crypto Tokens as Registered Securities on NYSE
    June 20, 2026, 1:52 AM EDT. Igloo Inc., known for Pudgy Penguins NFTs, has developed an instrument enabling crypto tokens to trade as registered securities on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. CEO Luca Netz revealed the tool on Uneasy Money podcast, highlighting its one-to-one price parity with decentralized exchanges and onchain redemption features. However, listing requires traditional underwriting by firms like Goldman Sachs, costing $10-20 million, limiting access mainly to large crypto projects. Regulatory approval from the SEC on the security classification remains pending, crucial for the instrument's viability. The move represents a significant step in bridging crypto and traditional finance, although the high underwriting cost compares unfavorably to crypto ETFs, restricting broad adoption.
