  • SEC Set to Release Innovation Exemption for $1.4 Billion Tokenized Stock Market
    May 19, 2026, 1:42 AM EDT. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is preparing to announce an "innovation exemption" allowing trading of tokenized stocks-digital versions of public company shares-on decentralized platforms. This represents a pivotal regulatory shift, enabling tokens to track share prices without corporate backing or traditional shareholder rights like voting or dividends. The tokenized stock market has surged nearly 30% to $1.4 billion in distributed value across 2,246 assets, with monthly transfer volume hitting $3.24 billion and holders growing 25% to 265,000. Industry players such as Ondo and xStocks dominate the space, holding 59.77% and 27.38% market shares respectively. The move aligns with major firms like DTCC, Nasdaq, and NYSE planning on-chain settlements and tokenized equity rollouts by 2026.
