🧵 As mentioned in our Oct '25 lookback, the tokenisation race is accelerating. Digital assets firms are pushing “tokenized stocks”. But what are tokenised stocks — and why do they matter for the next era of blockchain finance? 👇
📈 Tokenised stocks are digital representations of real-world equities issued and traded on blockchains. Each token mirrors the value and performance of a traditional stock (e.g., Apple, Tesla).
Basically bringing Wall Street to Web3. (*insert Wolf of Wall Street gif here*)
🛠️ How it works: a regulated custodian holds the underlying shares.
Then, tokens representing fractional ownership are minted on a blockchain.
These tokens trade 24/7 and can be integrated into DeFi — unlocking liquidity, accessibility, and programmability.
Now, why does this matter: tokenised stocks can democratise access to global markets.
Instead of buying 1 share of $AMZN at $3,000+, you could own $1 worth — instantly, globally, and permissionlessly. Tokenisation enables fractional investing and borderless capital markets.
💰 Also worth noting, that by 2030, real-world asset tokenisation could exceed US$10 trillion (with a 't'), including equities, real estate, and bonds.
Financial systems are already exploring on-chain issuance for faster settlement and reduced counterparty risk.
🌊 And the tokenisation wave is just starting: expect cross-chain tokenised ETFs, synthetic indexes, and on-chain dividends in the coming years. This also opens up possibilities for new infra and projects to align with those developments. A niche within a niche, if you will.
👨🏫 As we all know, the crypto space can be legally complex. Tokenised stocks are no exception since they straddle securities and digital asset regulations. Scaling safely will require transparent custodial models and jurisdictional compliance.
🧠 In conclusion: tokenised stocks blur the line between traditional and decentralised finance — and blockchains like Cronos can provide the scalable rails for this transformation. Building a future where global capital moves seamlessly through smart contracts.
