SEC Approves WisdomTree for 24/7 Instant Blockchain Trading
The SEC’s approval allows WisdomTree to operate around-the-clock instant trading on blockchain for tokenized U.S. Treasuries, a development that expands after-hours access and on-chain settlement for fixed-income assets. By enabling immediate transfers and continuous markets, the product aims to reduce settlement risk and narrow execution windows that traditionally constrained treasury trading.
This decision comes as the roughly $10 billion tokenized U.S. Treasury market continues to scale and remains concentrated among firms such as BlackRock and Circle. WisdomTree’s entry is likely to intensify competition, boost liquidity and encourage further innovation in market infrastructure, while keeping regulatory oversight in focus. The approval marks a notable step toward mainstreaming tokenized government debt and broadening institutional and retail access to Treasury markets.
