TZERO receives SEC and FINRA approval for digital securities custody

As a seasoned analyst with years of experience in the financial and blockchain sectors, I find this development with tZERO particularly intriguing. The SEC and FINRA approval for digital asset securities custody marks a significant step forward in the mainstream adoption of blockchain technology in capital markets.


TZERO has been given the green light by both the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, enabling them to provide secure storage solutions for digital asset securities.

As stated in a recent press announcement dated September 10th, it’s anticipated that tZERO will formally debut its service around the beginning of 2025. Initially, their Series-A preferred equity security, known as TZROP, will be made available on the platform.

By obtaining approval from the SEC and FINRA, tZERO’s subsidiary, Digital Asset Securities, can now function as a licensed specialized intermediary broker, offering secure storage solutions for digital security assets.

These items utilize the power of blockchain technology and provide controlled investment options for users. This includes private securities, digital representations of tangible assets like real estate, artwork, and sports, as well as funds. Consequently, the concept of blockchain-backed real estate, art, and sports has been growing in popularity due to increased adoption of this technology.

Obtaining approval for tZERO leads to TZROP, a digital asset security the company launched in 2019, becoming the first of its kind to trade on the SEC-regulated tZERO Securities Alternative Trading System (ATS). Previously, issuers of digital securities encountered numerous obstacles, such as sacrificing key blockchain features for compliance or distributing assets outside the U.S.

Currently, tZERO stands in a position to energize this network by introducing blockchain technology into financial markets.

With our specialized broker-dealer standing, we can provide a reliable, secure, and compliant platform for digital asset custody, as well as fresh and groundbreaking services for issuers, investors, and all market players.
