A post by @WuBlockchain on X.

Payward, the parent company of crypto exchange Kraken, has added more than 200 tokenized UK- and EU-listed stocks to its xStocks platform, pushing the total number of tokenized equities past 1,500. The expansion broadens xStocks' coverage beyond U.S. names into European markets, with hundreds of Hong Kong-listed stocks slated to follow in the coming weeks. The move deepens the tokenized-equity market, where blockchain-based shares aim to offer round-the-clock trading and broader access than traditional exchanges. It also positions Payward against rivals racing to tokenize traditional assets as institutional interest in real-world asset products grows. What to watch next is whether the Hong Kong rollout arrives on schedule and whether trading volumes and liquidity on xStocks keep pace with the expanding roster of listings.
