What is the difference between tokenized stocks and regular stocks?

Tokenized stocks are digital representations of real company shares stored on a blockchain, while regular stocks are traditional equity shares traded through conventional stock exchanges. With tokenized stocks, you own blockchain-based tokens that represent fractional or full ownership of actual stocks. Key differences: tokenized stocks offer 24/7 trading and fractional ownership (buying partial shares), while regular stocks trade during market hours with standard share quantities. Tokenized stocks provide faster settlement times and lower fees, but may have less liquidity. Both represent ownership in companies, but tokenized versions leverage blockchain technology for easier trading and accessibility. However, tokenized stocks remain relatively new and less regulated than traditional stocks in most jurisdictions.
