SEC to Host Crypto Roundtable on Real-World Asset Tokenization with Major Industry Players

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s upcoming roundtable will focus on tokenization of real-world assets, signaling growing institutional engagement with blockchain infrastructure. Scheduled for March, the event features representatives from BlackRock, Fidelity, Nasdaq, and crypto-native firms like Securitize—a who’s who of traditional finance and digital asset convergence.

Commissioner Hester Peirce, long a proponent of measured crypto regulation, emphasized the transformative potential of tokenization. "This technology could reshape financial markets," she noted, framing the discussion as exploratory rather than prescriptive. The SEC’s pivot toward substantive dialogue marks a departure from its enforcement-heavy approach under previous leadership.
