## Summary

OKX and Intercontinental Exchange’s joint venture, OKXICE, plans to open a tokenised securities venue on 23 November, allowing eligible US customers to trade around the clock through the OKX app. Its launch with more than 70 expected assets, including shares in crypto-related public companies, shows how the venue is turning to willing issuers after many major companies rejected having their shares traded there.

The announced line-up includes Coinbase, Circle, Robinhood, Strategy, BitGo, Securitize and Better.com, as well as 59 Direxion exchange-traded funds; Strategy will also offer preferred stocks. Each token is intended to represent a one-for-one entitlement to a real US share, including associated shareholder benefits. Trading will use Uniswap v4 pools on OKX’s X Layer, with tokens held in self-custodial wallets, and access requires US eligibility, identity checks and onboarding. The venue operates under an SEC innovation exemption that lets companies object to third-party tokenised versions of their shares.
