Bullish And Equiniti Form Coalition For Issuer-Backed Tokenized Stocks
Bullish and Equiniti formed the Issuer Sponsored Token Coalition to develop standards for tokenized public securities. The group names Alpaca, Apex Fintech Solutions, and DriveWealth as early participants and says it will work on issuance, registries, trading, settlement, custody, and interoperability.
What this rests on
What it means
Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.
People involved with tokenized stock infrastructure are the most direct audience for this move, because the coalition is being built around standards they would use in practice. Public companies and their shareholders are also affected in the near term, since the coalition says it wants tokenized stocks to preserve their direct relationship. (per bitcoinist.com)
What changes in practice is that the coalition is setting out a framework for how tokenized securities could be issued, recorded, traded, settled, held, and connected across systems. What stays the same is that the aim is still tied to public-company ownership rather than a separate synthetic product, which is the structure the coalition explicitly set out to avoid.
