Kraken has opened a new dialoo run with the Crypto Task Force of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), aimed at how tokenization could be integrated into regulated financial markets.
An internal memo of the agency confirmed that the stock market met the task force on 25 August to present ideas about how Tokenized Trade Systems can function under existing American legislation.
During the session, the presentation of Kraken outlined the architecture of such a system, explained the life cycle of various transaction types and investigated the legal obligations linked to securities instructions.
The crypto exchange also insisted on clearer legal guidelines, and emphasized that constructive supervision could encourage innovation and guarantee investors.
The involvement follows the recent launch of the ‘Xstocks’ stock exchange, a platform designed to issue tokenized versions of more than 50 US shares and listed funds.
The assets have been launched on Solana and the Binance-supported BSC blockchain, but are currently limited to offshore customers.
Tokenization gets strength
The timing of this meeting reflects a broader industrial interest in Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization.
Proponents claim that moving traditional instruments such as bonds or shares at the chain could expand access to investment options and reduce the costs for market participants.
Interestingly, this argument has recently found support from American supervisors.
At the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium, Federal Reserve Vice -Chairman said Michelle Bowman supervision:
“The speed and costs of wholesale payments, in particular internationally, is a long -term problem that could help tokenization to tackle. Banks of any size, including community banks, can benefit from efficiency gains resulting from assets tokenization.”
It is therefore not surprising that the RWA sector is growing rapidly. Data from analysis company RWA.XYZ shows that tokenized assets reached $ 26.5 billion in August, an increase of more than 4%. Wallet addresses that held these instruments grew by 11% to around 367,000.
Given this level of growth, industry experts expect that the sector will scale considerably. The Skynet RWA security report of 2025 estimates that Tokenized RWAS could represent in value by 2030 by 2030.
