BSTX Listing

The BSTX

On January 27, 2022, the SEC approved the country’s 17th stock exchange, the first one of which will utilize blockchain technology.  The new BSTX is a subsidiary of the Boston BOX Exchange and is a joint venture with tZero, which is providing the blockchain technology.  The BSTX is expected to begin operations sometime after June 2022 and will initially only trade securities that first list directly on the BSTX.  Once listed on the BSTX, a security can dual trade on other exchanges.

To begin, the BSTX will trade traditional securities but intends to move into tokenized securities and intends to brand itself with the look and feel of a digital asset exchange as opposed to the more traditional Nasdaq look.  In December 2020, the SEC rejected the Exchange’s original plan to exclusively trade tokenized securities.  The BOX then filed new proposed rules in May 2021 which, after 3 amendments, were approved by the SEC on January 27th.
