BlackRock-backed firm Securitize nears NYSE listing

Securitize, a tokenization specialist notably involved with BlackRock's BUIDL fund, has cleared a significant regulatory hurdle on its path to a public listing. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved the company's merger registration, paving the way for its shares to potentially trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). This development marks a key milestone for the firm, which operates at the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets, and signals growing institutional interest in tokenized securities.
