Tokenization edges into repo and equities: the week in crypto
Tokenization moved closer to mainstream markets, while listed companies reported crypto treasuries and adjusted exchange access and trading tools.
Tokenized traditional assets were the clearest thread this week. Broadridge says its Distributed Ledger Repo processed $7.6 trillion in October and that its DLX platform extends tokenization beyond securities financing. Canton Strategic Holdings announced its intent to become the first tokenized U.S. equity, citing the SEC's Innovation Exemption. DeFi Technologies' subsidiary Valour added eight exchange traded products in Sweden, including one tracking Canton Network (CC).
Listed companies also reported on the crypto holdings on their balance sheets. Hyperscale Data put its Bitcoin, cash and restricted cash at about $50.6 million. Eightco Holdings reported treasury assets of about $399 million, including ETH and WLD, and announced plans tied to buybacks. On market access, TROOPS signed a term sheet with Young Platform on exchange infrastructure, and Eva Live launched an automated trading platform that connects to nine exchanges. NatGold Digital requested the delisting of its token from MEXC following a FinCEN order.
