OKX and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) will launch round-the-clock tokenized securities trading on November 23, giving eligible U.S. investors access to more than 70 assets through the OKX app. The initial lineup includes securities linked to Strategy, Coinbase, Circle, Robinhood and BitGo, alongside 59 Direxion exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and Strategy preferred stocks, including STRC.

Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor welcomed the launch, confirming plans to bring STRC preferred stock and MSTR shares onchain. He described the move as another step toward capital markets that operate continuously.

The platform will operate under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Innovation Exemption. OKXICE Co-Chair Andrew Cuomo said the framework would support continuous trading while preserving shareholder rights.

How the Tokenized Securities Platform Works

Trades will run through Uniswap v4 liquidity pools on OKX’s X Layer network. Securitize will handle the tokenization, with each digital token representing an equivalent U.S. share.

Investors will still receive dividends and retain voting rights linked to the underlying shares. They will also hold their assets in personal wallets rather than with OKXICE, which will have no control over their funds or private keys.

Anyone looking to use the service must first verify their identity and complete onboarding through a CeDeFi Wallet. The service will initially be open only to eligible OKX Inc. customers.
