  • SEC Readies Tokenized Stock Rules as Onchain Market Surges Past $1.4 Billion
    May 19, 2026, 6:18 AM EDT. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is set to unveil an "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks, allowing third-party digital tokens to track public company shares on decentralized platforms without company consent. This marks a significant regulatory shift enabling trading of digital equity versions that may lack standard shareholder rights like voting and dividends. The tokenized stock market recently surged nearly 30% to $1.4 billion in value across 2,246 assets, with monthly transfer volume hitting $3.24 billion and holders rising 25% to about 265,000, per RWA.xyz. Major players include Ondo, holding 59.77% market share, and xStocks at 27.38%. Wall Street institutions and exchanges like Nasdaq and NYSE are developing infrastructure for onchain securities trading, while the DTCC plans limited tokenized securities trades from July 2026.
