Nasdaq Partners with Kraken to Bring Stocks On-Chain
Nasdaq has partnered with Kraken’s parent company to develop tokenized shares that mirror traditional stocks, using the same identifiers and offering full shareholder rights such as proxy voting. Settlement will run through existing systems, with blockchain handling ownership records. Pending SEC approval, Nasdaq targets a 2027 launch, starting with listed firms. Kraken will distribute the tokens to customers in Europe and other regions through its xStocks platform, aiming to deliver round-the-clock access and faster settlement.
