Binance confirms plans to reintroduce tokenized equities
Reports say the exchange is exploring blockchain-based stock tokens five years after halting a previous offering amid regulatory scrutiny.
Binance has confirmed plans to reintroduce tokenized equities, five years after it briefly offered tokenized versions of cryptocurrency and technology company stocks in 2021 and halted trading amid regulatory scrutiny [1][2].
Media reports say Binance and other major exchanges are positioning to offer tokenized U.S. stocks that would provide blockchain-based exposure to publicly listed companies outside traditional markets [3][2][5].
The earlier stock-token program was shut down in 2021 under regulatory pressure; outlets note there have been no public regulatory updates and that Binance has not issued direct statements on timing or specifics for a relaunch [1][4][5].
Reporting indicates renewed momentum behind tokenized equities, but details and formal disclosures from regulators and Binance remain unreported [2][4].
