Nasdaq Plans to Advance Equity Tokenization Through Its Own Tokenization Model, Explicitly Stating It Will Not Participate in SEC Innovation Exemption Trading Platforms

TechFlow news, October 30 — Citing crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, a Nasdaq spokesperson declined to comment on reports that Nasdaq representatives allegedly discouraged listed companies from tokenizing equities through the TSV solution by OKX/ICE. Nasdaq reiterated that it does not plan to participate in trading platforms operating under the SEC innovation exemption, saying it does not view this as the best path for equity tokenization. Meanwhile, Nasdaq will continue to advance its issuer-centric Nasdaq Equity Token model, aiming to achieve equity tokenization within existing market frameworks.
