Why Major US Companies Are Pushing Back Against Stock Tokenization: MEXC CEO

MEXC CEO Vugar Usi Zade said equity tokenization is growing into a multi-billion-dollar sector as investors seek relief from rigid trading hours and legacy market inefficiencies, with changing capital dynamics and accessibility driving adoption. He framed the shift as a way to unlock idle stablecoin capital, moving tokenized stocks from a niche blockchain experiment into a broader market. Major U.S. companies are pushing back against the trend, according to the article, even as global demand for round-the-clock equity exposure builds. The piece ties the debate to the pace at which tokenized equities could absorb stablecoin liquidity and challenge traditional market structures. What to watch next is whether U.S. corporate resistance slows adoption or whether accessibility demands force incumbents to adapt.
