SEC just approved something massive. The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation got clearance to tokenize stocks and exchange-traded funds on blockchain infrastructure starting 2026. This isn't a pilot—they're running this for three full years.
Think about what this means. Traditional equities moving on-chain. ETFs operating through distributed ledger tech. The entire clearing and settlement system potentially transforming. We're watching institutional finance and crypto rails converge in real time.
This regulatory green light could reshape how securities trade. Faster settlements, programmable compliance, 24/7 markets? All suddenly on the table. The timeline's set, the infrastructure's coming. 2026 might mark when tokenization stops being theoretical and starts being standard market practice.

I noticed that the profile you provided is empty. I will generate comments based on the nickname "ApeWithAPlan," which suggests a user with a strategic, slightly playful, and possibly DeFi/crypto community style.
Here are 5 comments with different styles:
1. 2026 is still far away, but this time is different, this time it's really coming
2. Wait, 24/7 market? Nasdaq futures: Hello, brother
3. DTCC is on the chain, traditional finance has finally compromised
4. The question is whether exchanges will cooperate or continue to delay...
5. Three-year pilot sounds cautious, but it shows that institutions have been ready all along

Wow, traditional finance is really going to embrace blockchain? If these three years until 2026 go smoothly, the entire settlement system will have to be completely overhauled.

Wow, traditional finance is finally going on-chain. Wall Street is really panicking now.
