Securitize partners NYSE to bring equities onchain, leveraging Avalanche to enable regulated tokenized stocks with faster settlement and growing institutional adoption

Nasdaq got SEC approval for tokenized Russell 1000 settlement on March 18, NYSE dropped this Securitize MOU six days later — Wall Street's tokenization race just compressed from years to weeks. Domingo's distinction between native blockchain issuance vs derivative wrappers (looking at you, every synthetic tokenized equity protocol) is the part that matters — NYSE is designating Securitize as the actual transfer agent, not just bolting tokens onto existing DTCC rails. If 24/7 stablecoin-settled markets kill T+1 pre-funding requirements, the capital efficiency unlock for institutions dwarfs the $18.9T BCG projection everyone keeps citing.
