CFTC Chair Selig: Markets Must Prepare for ‘Mass Tokenization’

CFTC Chairman Selig said markets must prepare for “mass tokenization,” with the Trump administration readying an overhaul of financial markets as tokenization and 24/7 trading move into the spotlight. Selig’s remarks position tokenized assets and round-the-clock trading as central to the coming regulatory and market shift.

The significance lies less in the tokenization thesis itself than in who is voicing it: a sitting CFTC chair framing mass tokenization and 24/7 trading as an inevitability markets must prepare for, rather than a speculative experiment. That shifts the debate from whether tokenized assets get a regulatory pathway to how quickly the existing market structure — trading hours, settlement, custody — is expected to adapt. The open question is whether this rhetoric translates into concrete rulemaking, and which asset classes move first.
