Oracle, IBM, Intel Opt Out of OKX-ICE Stock Tokens

The opt-outs matter less as individual corporate decisions than as a signal about issuer consent in tokenized equities: blue-chip names are drawing a line between exposure to their stock and on-chain representations of it. The unaudited contract, timelock-free upgrades and uncertain SIPC treatment sit at the center of that hesitation, since they speak directly to the legal and technical safeguards traditional issuers expect. Whether more large-cap companies follow, and whether the platform addresses the audit and upgrade concerns, is the open question for the tokenized-equity model.
