Tokenized stocks are rapidly expanding. The total market cap of onchain tokenized stocks is now up to a record $1.6 billion. This marks a 240% increase year-to-date as tokenization gains popularity and equity markets have experienced a historic rally. Additionally, trading volume is also gaining momentum as xStocks and Ondo, two of the most active spot providers in the space, have both posted ~200% growth in monthly active trading volume this year. Amid this growth, Jupiter, the largest onchain platform, has processed over $400 million in onchain tokenized stock spot volume, becoming a key venue for tokenized spot trading. Meanwhile, in a sudden shift, Bloomberg reported that the SEC is now preparing a framework for the trading of tokenized stocks. Tokenization is accelerating.

The first ERC20 I did was MistCoin a fun creation to test tokens in the Ethereum Wallet. Right after somebody created “bitcoin” 🙀 I still own some super valuable MistCoin 😜

Tokenized assets have never been more popular. The distributed asset value of real-world tokenized assets is now up to a record $33.8 billion. This represents a 1,600% increase over the last 2 years and adoption is only accelerating. Growth in these assets gained momentum after onchain platforms like Jupiter began listing tokenized assets through partnerships with Securitize, xStocks, and Ondo finance, prompting 34% week-over-week volume growth. Meanwhile, Bloomberg reported this week that the SEC is leaning toward allowing the trading of tokenized assets in a "surprise move." This would mark one of the US' biggest shifts into crypto infrastructure yet. Tokenization is taking over.

I didn’t pick the number randomly, it was the GitHub issue number 20. The idea was not that this becomes the official standard, but to be thr discussion for a future standard 😉 People just went with my written specification, and used the name ERC20 github.com/ethereum/EIPs/iss…

🥹 guess which one is the prototype of a multibillion asset class.

if provenance matters then you guys are gonna LOVE v0 punks.

BREAKING: The SEC is set to release its so-called "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks which will pave the path for trading digital versions of securities, per Bloomberg. Details include: 1. In a "surprise move," the SEC is leaning toward allowing the trading of tokenized assets 2. These tokenized assets would be tradeable on decentralized crypto platforms 3. The move could "reshape the landscape of the American stock market" 4. This would also be one of the US' biggest shifts into crypto infrastructure yet Tokenized assets are rapidly expanding.

I want to make it clear that Larry Fink’s numerous videos about tokenization aren’t marketing videos. He’s literally telling you what’s going to happen. The discussions we had at @consensus2026 with countless financial institutions only reinforce this: everyone is genuinely excited about the topic and is already making progress toward this new world.

i don't know david, and it doesn't bother me that he sold his @cryptopunks recently. but if i were to make a case for why someone should consider owning a punk, it would go like this: throughout history, there have been artifacts that symbolize the beginning of a new movement. and if you believe that new technologies unlock human potential and creativity, then cryptopunks are the clearest symbol of that belief within the world of cryptoassets the ethereum whitepaper outlined many of the core innovations crypto has established. prediction markets, decentralized finance, and the rest. all of the big winners in that category today are part of the ethereum industrial complex and in many ways blessed as "approved" use cases by the powers that be. cryptopunks, and the broader nft movement, were never part of the official plan. not in the whitepaper like prediction markets, defi and the rest. in many cases, ignored or shunned by the existing leaders within the ecosystem. given the amount of institutional capital that had to be poured into the canonical use cases to make them viable it is interesting that the digital collectible scene... didn't. it was a grassroots movement, built on top of a basic human psychological need to collect artifacts that have meaning. and you should never underestimate that. the shelf life of cultural assets is very long. and cryptopunks are growing more lindy by the day.

Here are some “Nice words”. This token was made to test the token capabilities of Mist and ERC20 as a whole (gas was so cheap!). There’s NO inherent value. If you’re a collector or like slot machines do your thing, but you probably will be someone else’s greater fool.

Guys I just gave you all Mist. Which is in german:
