What if major stock exchanges operated 24/5 on blockchain infrastructure? Imagine NYSE extending trading hours to 23 hours across five business days—entirely powered by decentralized networks. This isn't just about longer hours; it's about eliminating settlement delays, reducing counterparty risk, and enabling global participation without traditional market closures. Blockchain-based trading could fundamentally reshape how equities move in the digital age. The infrastructure already exists; it's about market participants embracing the shift.

Sounds good, but will those traditional finance folks really relinquish control?

To be honest, no matter how complete the infrastructure is, it’s useless. The key issue is that institutions are sticking together and unwilling to move.

It sounds great, but in reality? The project team is always storytelling. To truly eliminate settlement delays, it also depends on whether the smart contract code has vulnerabilities—that's the key.
