The Tokenization Tsunami
The US regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies has shifted dramatically with the approval of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs (simulated late 2025 context). This has laid the groundwork for broader integration. The next logical step is the launch of fully regulated tokenized securities (stocks, bonds) or Exchange Traded Products (ETPs) directly backed by digital assets on major US exchanges. The strong 'Yes' vote reflects the fierce competition among exchanges and the enormous market demand. With regulatory precedent established, the race to implement the technical infrastructure and secure final SEC approval for a true crypto-backed equity product is highly likely to be completed before the end of 2028.
