TZERO has received approval from both the Securities and Exchange Commission and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to offer digital asset securities custody.
According to a <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/tzero-receives-landmark-approval-to-custody-digital-securities-and-support-end-to-end-digital-securities-lifecycle-in-the-united-states-302242412.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">press release</a> published on Sept. 10, tZERO expects to officially launch its service in early 2025. The first product to go live will be TZROP, the platform’s Series-A preferred equity security.
The SEC and FINRA approval allows tZERO’s subsidiary, Digital Asset Securities, to operate as a regulated special purpose broker-dealer, providing custodian services for digital asset securities.
These products leverage blockchain technology and offer investment opportunities for users in a regulated environment. Private securities, tokenization of real-world assets, and funds fall into this category. As a result, <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://crypto.news/tzero-tokenization-uk-real-estate-market/">securitized real estate</a>, art and sports have increasingly gained traction amid blockchain adoption.

Before this milestone, digital security issuers faced multiple hurdles, including forgoing key blockchain features to ensure compliance or having to issue assets outside the U.S.
Now, tZERO has the opportunity to power this ecosystem by bringing blockchain to the capital markets.
