SEC Approves Pilot to Trade Tokenized Securities on 24X National Exchange

24X National Exchange filed a rule change — effective immediately — to allow securities to be traded in tokenized form during a pilot program operated by the Depository Trust Company. This is a significant structural development for firms dealing in digital asset securities, as it signals a regulated pathway for tokenized equities on a national exchange. Compliance officers at broker-dealers, exchanges, and custody providers should monitor how AML, KYC, and settlement obligations will apply to tokenized security transactions under this pilot.

What to do

  • Review the 24X/DTC pilot program details and assess whether your firm's AML, KYC, and custody frameworks need to be updated to accommodate tokenized securities transactions.
