EU Watchdog Warns Tokenized Stocks Could Mislead Investors: Report
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LInkedIn


The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has
raised concerns about the potential for investor misunderstanding associated
with tokenized stocks. These blockchain-based assets, which track the price of
public company shares, often do not grant the buyer actual shareholder rights.

ESMA’s executive director, Natasha Cazenave, as quoted by Reuters,
emphasized the need for clear communication and safeguards in the sector.

24/7 Trading and Fraudulent Ownership

Tokenized stocks have gained attention for offering 24/7
trading and fractional ownership, appealing to a broader range of investors.
However, Cazenave pointed out that these instruments typically do not confer
shareholder rights, such as voting or dividend entitlements, which are
associated with traditional equity ownership.

This discrepancy can lead to a specific risk of investor
misunderstanding, highlighting the necessity for transparent communication and
protective measures.

The World Federation of Exchanges has echoed ESMA’s
concerns, urging securities regulators to implement stricter oversight of tokenized
stocks to mitigate risks to investors and market integrity. Despite the
enthusiasm from crypto advocates about the potential of tokenization to revolutionize
financial markets, ESMA notes that most tokenization initiatives remain small
and illiquid at this stage.

As the market for tokenized equities continues to develop,
regulators are emphasizing the importance of investor protection and the need
for clear distinctions between blockchain-based assets and traditional
securities. The ongoing dialogue between industry participants and regulatory
bodies will be crucial in shaping the future landscape of tokenized financial
instruments.

Interest in Tokenized Stocks

Interest in tokenized stocks spiked in July, with Tesla
(TSLA) and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) reaching a combined market
capitalization of $53.6 million, a 220% increase from June, according to
Binance’s latest report.

The number of on-chain addresses holding these assets rose
sharply, from around 1,600 to more than 90,000 within the month. Trading
volumes on centralized exchanges were over 70 times higher than on-chain
platforms, indicating demand that exceeds what blockchain activity alone
reflects.

Cryptocurrency exchange Kraken recently met with the
Securities and Exchange Commission’s Crypto Task Force this week to discuss a
potential tokenized trading system for stocks and other assets.

The meeting included four Kraken executives and two
attorneys from law firm Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr. Discussions
centered on the proposed system’s technical structure, applicable regulatory
requirements, and potential benefits for the market.
