Brief

NYSE parent ICE collaborating with LayerZero and DTCC on Zero blockchain. March 24, 2026: signed MOU with Securitize naming Securitize as the first digital transfer agent on the NYSE Digital Trading Platform, the planned 24/7 tokenized securities venue. April 9, 2026: filed a proposed SEC rule change to let tokenized Russell 1000 stocks and major-index ETFs trade on the same order book as traditional securities (same CUSIP, same ticker, T+1 via DTC) under DTC's three-year tokenization pilot. The rule took immediate effect (SEC notice April 17, SR-NYSE-2026-17), with trading to begin once DTC's tokenization service is live; NYSE National adopted a parallel rule May 12.
